The Jets Continue to Amaze Me

The New York Jets just continue to amaze me year in and year out. It's almost unfathomable at this point what their front office is doing. I understand the Revis trade for a second first round pick. But what I don't understand is their use of that pick. If you're trading your best player for a draft pick then you better make sure you get that draft pick right. In this case, the Jets didn't.

I'm sure Rex Ryan knows much more about defense than I do, but you got your cornerback with your first pick. At 13 you didn't even take the guy who was considered the best available player. There were three other defensive tackles rated higher than him and you run a 3-4 and you drafted a smaller 4-3 type defensive tackle. He doesn't fit your system.

Next, your offense is flat out atrocious. Everyone wants to blame Mark Sanchez but your organization has set him up to fail with the combination of no weapons and the circus that is Tim Tebow. Speaking of setting him up to fail, WHERE IS THE HELP? You had two first round picks and you didn't use one on any offensive help. You lost your running back in the off season and your wide receivers take twenty five minutes to get down the field. You're telling me the best you could do was a defensive tackle who doesn't fit your system?

It's not even surprising anymore, the Jets just don't get the concept of the draft. Sure, I know they need a lot of pieces but you needed to use that second first round pick to help out your quarterback. You've done nothing for the guy for two full years now. If he fails and gets run out of town it's totally on your organization. I would love to make fun of the fans but I just feel bad for you guys at this point. If you pay money to go watch this joke of a franchise play football games this season you're out of your mind. You were in prime position to help your football team and you turned into one of the big losers of the first round.
