I still don’t think it’ll end up being underwhelming. The prospects the national sports media opined about for six months are underwhelming (Allar, Sellers and Arch). Now that they were somewhat wrong up until this point about those guys the class suddenly sucks.
I agree. Somewhere a few pages ago I have a semi-hopeful note along those lines. I guess where I’m at right now is: assuming the Jets have a top-5 pick, there may be a QB or two with top-5 talent, but nobody has played top-5 ball through six weeks. I’d also add: if you’re investing in a franchise QB, I’d take the 2027 draft class over the 2026 class, sight unseen. Just looking ahead to who will be new to the draft pool and who from this year will have another year to show.
Any competent organization is drafting one of these Qb's and building around him Only the delusional fan base here would say oh tank again for 2027 lmaooo It starts and end at the QB. We have the OL, Garrett and Mason Taylor.
Good point. At the end, you’d think from his uniform that he was drilled into the turf all game. That’s all from OT. We also should put a pin in that game for when Drew Allar’s name starts flying around this board and “expert” mock drafts. For three and a half quarters he did dick, and just when you want to credit the guy for showing some grit and gutting out 14 points to tie it, he makes a boneheaded throw in OT to lose it.
Because top-10 QB picks based on dire need and mock draft consensus has worked out so well. Flash back just a few years, you have a top-5 pick and your choices are Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, Justin Fields and Mac Jones, Only one team gets that right. Because it was easy. Everyone else spends the next four years trying to develop a guy who’s undevelopable, until they eventually get another shot with another top-5 draft pick. Based on performance so far this season, if you own the first pick in the draft and you select based on need alone, you’re only proving why you’re picking that high in the first place. Not a single college QB has showed first pick value yet. There’s still half a season and CFP left. I have no problem waiting for someone to stand out. I do have a problem with another five years of misery if the Jets were to waste first-pick value on a DIY QB project.
Well, Young Tom Brady ain’t walking through these doors next year. You want to run it back with Justin Fields haha?
The thing people also forget is no free agents want to come here, especially a QB if they even hit the market.
Wait. I owe you an apology. I breezed right over the subtle nuances of your point. This no Tom Brady thing could be a real problem.
