Lawrence and the Jets...


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

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!

    • Ravens mixing it up with a random Mark Andrew tush push last year isn't a similar situation.  Lamar has run QB sneaks his entire career.  And often instead of a traditional sneak will even employ a 4th and 1 direct snap to Lamar simply because of how athletic he is (which even Cam did a lot of) and let him pick his own holes.  
    • height being an issue doesn't just mean batted balls.  You could argue Bryce minimizes batted balls by adopting other poor habits such as his jump passing and leaving the pocket.   As I said, there are plays you can point to where he clearly was blind to parts of the field/players....which kills plays and opportunity. Which actually means some of the shorter/hot throws when things break down are where his vision gets blocked (and he had below average production all around the line of scrimmage).   has he figured it out? I mean, he improved off a trainwreck start.  But Bryce Young since arriving in the league (even while figuring it out)......doesn't generate much offensive production vs his peers.  I just think his ceiling is low.   And that's not in the grand scheme what you want in the NFL.  I think he can develop into a serviceable QB, that will largely always been a middle of the pack or low end starter.   
    • People make a lot of noise about his footwork and I think it is overblown. Whether he takes 3 steps backwards or 5 small steps doesn't matter as long as he ends up at the right depth and is in sync with  the receiver regarding timing. If he does that consistently who cares as long as he has a firm stable base as he delivers the ball. Which he does need to work on. However even that is somewhat overblown given that often QBs have to throw off balance or from different arm angles to fit the ball around defenders. He is considered very accurate so apparently it isn't hurting him that much.
