Lawrence and the Jets...

While out grabbing a snack, I heard Kyle Bailey say that some people were starting to take the idea of Trevor Lawrence "shunning" the Jets seriously.

Took a look around the web to see what I could see, and it seems that the New York media at least sees it as a real possibility following some recent comments from Lawrence that he's open to the possibility of staying in school for another year.

Of course, people also speculate about him coming out but simply refusing to play for the Jets. I'll grant that's possible, but it seems less likely (at least at the moment).

Either way though, Lawrence making a move to avoid the Jets would have near seismic level implications for this year's draft. And there's plenty to speculate on about how it might affect us.

I wouldn't blame him and he's started making some statements backpedaling on his previous statement of this definitely being his last I'm college. Now, I absolutely think that it is, but that could be the first shot across the Jets' bow. Their meeting with him isn't going to be the typical grilling of a prospect to see if you want him. It's going to be a recruiting pitch to sell him on the future of that organization.

I was a big Baltimore Colt fan back when Elway did it to the colts.   I have hated him every since. 

If you are a No. 1 pick you are going to a terrible team.  

 

You are likely going to a bad team, but maybe not a bad organization.

The Jets are a bad organization, somehow more dysfunctional than the Chargers, Raiders, and The WFT.

Is the Jets organization that bad, or is it primarily Adam Gase?

Their GM is only in his second year.

I think it's the ownership group.

I still don't know how they had some success with Rex Ryan and Butt Fumble, but outside of those years, that team has been BAD for a long time.

It’s a bad owner. That owner repels good coaches and bad coaching, of course, destroys young QBs.

He needs to shun them. He has no chance of ever getting a good cast around him.

Definitely within the set of possible outcomes -- and this isn't new news.

His teammate did it last year (not necessarily to avoid a specific team, just wanted another year of college).

If they screw Trevor out of the Heisman the chances only increase.

The Jets are a dumpster fire on equal standing with the Bobcats and that's saying something!

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
