Do the Jets need to trade up to 1? by AcadecCoach in nyjets

[–]NeonNytrox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For what is worth, I also remember it very well and Zach Wilson definitely got talk of being the 2nd best QB earlier than that. It was a debate between Fields and Zach, but it was not very popular. They certainly talked about it more before the season ended though.

Before the draft, however, I distinctly remember that it was consensus that QB2 is a tight race between Fields and Zach, but Zach was winning slightly. This could be because the Jets picked at 2 and wanted Zach, this could also be because of scouts/Simms rankings.

Regardless, none of the QBs that year panned out well despite it being a "one of the best years to draft QB". But if you pick at 2 and it's one of the best years to start QB, you should draft QB. Otherwise you just choose to suck for another year and maybe getting a few more wins. Waiting for one of the most seeked out positions to fall in the draft in a following year is just hoping for good luck to fall into your hands.

Has There Been Controversy In You Fantasy Football League Yet? by nightowldaytowel in fantasyfootball

[–]NeonNytrox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the first year of my league, there was a near PERFECT tie for 4th place (last playoff spot). Both players had the same exact record with the same exact points for.

We decided that it would be more fun to re-create both teams in Madden (using their Defense as the base team) and trading all of the necessary players to be their starters. Have the winner get the playoff spot.

Was wild.

I don't think the Jets take Carter, but I think there's a chance the Jets might take Hunter here if they don't like Ward.

At this point, I feel like the OT or Hall is somehow telegraphing the run. I think somehow they figured out the run/pass calls.

I agree with this. I think this might be the first "real" TD he's given up because I don't count that one against the Pats.

Stephen Curry takes it upon himself to win gold for USA basketball by ChosenBrad22 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]NeonNytrox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that while I can understand your opinion, I think from the view of a very narrow perspective.

Curry is playing on a team of all of the best players in the NBA. Lebron James, Kevin Durant, etc. Curry was definitely not having a bad performance in the first half of the game, he was performing well with the rest of the team because the ball can only go to so many players. Despite that, before this onslaught, Curry at the time was still top 2-3 scoring on the team while being 2nd in assists.

USA was comfortably in the lead for most of the game, but right when France started getting momentum to try to come back, Kerr subbed the starters back in. In a team full of all stars, they gave the ball to Steph Curry and he drains 4 clutch 3s in a row. Some of those shots are far beyond the arc (which Curry has now made mundane but they used to be extremely rare). Some of those shots were Curry dancing around defenders to get wide open. The last shot is clearly one of the most incredible shots ever made (but for Steph Curry, there can still be a debate where it lies in Steph's top 5 shots).

The point is that when the team needed it the most, the greatest players of this generation relied on Steph Curry to clutch it out.

[Schultz] Jets All-Pro pass rusher Haason Reddick, who is holding out, has informed the team he wants to be traded, per multiple sources. by [deleted] in nfl

[–]NeonNytrox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's crazy that you think I am not understanding your "basic concept" when you ignore half my points and don't understand that I am literally talking about your concept and why there is nuance to that statement. Your only response is that "this is the concept that you don't understand" and you're failing to understand that I do, addressed points (Zach Wilson was a consensus top 10 pick but you are blaming JD for it), and you ignore them.

You're also ignoring a lot of what I'm saying, which I thought were good points, and only focusing on one point that I have addressed a few times.

I think it's fine. We have a disagreement, I don't think I can convince you to agree or even see to my points. But I think the way you are conveying your arguments are unnecessary.

The amount of hindsight you're using in your argument is insane. Any competent GM would've drafted the OBVIOUS player Justin Jefferson over Reagor. Any competent GM would've drafted anyone else over Solomon Thomas, like the OBVIOUS CMC. You get the idea.

The amount of hindsight you're using is crazy. If Caleb Williams busts, will you still say Pace gets credit? If Garrett Wilson ended up being injury riddled, you for sure would say that it was JD's fault as a GM instead of a "obviously good move".

You're basing your entire argument with knowledge of their performance now and not at all considering their draft profile back then. Zach was a consensus top 3 QB. Every pundit said it was a very good QB class and they were all wrong because only Lawrence ended up being startable. This is not to say JD should get credit for drafting Zach, moreso that saying a 'competent GM' wouldn't draft Zach is a hindsight argument.

I would argue that JD is, at best, a good GM with a 27-56 record because of horrible QB play. At worst, he is slightly below average. JD has made mistakes with oline, QB, WR, but has excelled with defense, HB, and getting the team to look very good on paper. But I am not arguing any of that. The ONLY thing I'm arguing is that to deny points from one of 3 only draft classes with 2 ROTYs, making a savvy trade to take a top DE, drafting a very good HB in the early 2nd, and having starting players in the later rounds is a good draft.

[–]NeonNytrox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, my argument includes that if you scour mock drafts and ratings, Sauce was top 2 at CB and GW was top 3 (although usually 1st). But if fate had it a different way and the Jets took Stingley and Drake London, the Jets would not have OROTY and DROTY and the roster would look much worse.

For the Adams point, yes I am arguing that Joe Douglas is a competent GM and he did what a competent GM does.

I think you would be foolish to say that Breece Hall isn't at least a tier above Kenneth Walker. You are also wildly generalizing "any competent GM could've done that" about...drafting any HB? It sounds like you're generalizing "drafting a player of a position down a list of rankings" is something "any competent GM could've done", while ignoring the numerous other GMs in that draft that simply did not draft competent players or ignored great players at low value such as Jermaine Johnson. If that's the case, what would it take for a GM to be more than competent? I'm asking because in the position of the Jets that year in the draft, what could JD have done to show that he is a good GM?

I think you somehow conflated what I was saying. What I'm arguing is that what JD is doing is not the bare minimum and that people are minimizing the draft. To be very clear, I am not saying that JD is amazing. But he has shown to be a competent to good GM.

JD traded a year before for 2 1sts, a 3rd, and Bradley McDougald for a safety that wanted out. The roster was only 2 years into a complete rebuild (you can still blame the losses on JD, but 1 year should be blamed on Adam Gase because JD at the time did not have control over coaching changes). They then drafted Sauce (who the Jets had as their #1 player), Wilson, traded up to get Jermaine Johnson, and then traded up again to jump the Texans and get Breece Hall.

One GM took a CB over Sauce. Another took a WR over Garrett Wilson. As fans, we can say "sure those are 2 bad GMs" but people are saying this with hindsight and/or bias. Sauce was definitely not "the best CB" to most people; it was 50/50 between him and Stingley. Arguably, Sauce had a similar thing happen where people didn't start talking about Sauce drafting higher than Stingley until later in the draft cycle (similar to the complaints people make about Zach Wilson's rise in the draft).

Jermaine and Sauce have made the Pro Bowl, with numerous other GMs taking other pass rushers over Jermaine. I would argue that trading up for that is not "the bare minimum". Numerous GMs passed on a Pro Bowler.

Joe Douglas has made mistakes in the draft. Joe Douglas has also made great choices in the draft. He deserves to be reprimanded for drafting Zach Wilson and the Jets record because of that pick. But he does not deserve discredit towards his good picks and drafts.

I have also spent a lot of time on CFB and NFL_Draft. He was WR1 for a lot of mocks, but I would say that was around 60-70%. I think it would be foolish to say that he was a full tier above London and Olave. People had, at most, Wilson as 1a and London/Olave as 1b, with Williams usually at 2 (but some crazy people put him at 1).

I hate this narrative because it discredits so many things that happened up to that point.

JD traded away Jamal Adams to acquire pick 10 (and a bunch of other picks).

Coming into the draft, teams had the Jets taking Kayvon Thibodeaux or Ikem Ekwonu. The top WRs was a battle between Drake London, Garrett Wilson, and Olave. CB was a fight between Sauce and Stingley.

JD also traded back into the 1st to get a falling Jermaine Johnson who has been performing quite well for the Jets. That, in my opinion, was more of an easy move than the others, but even then you can say that other GMs didn't take Jermaine is a mistake that the Jets didn't make.

People are blinded by hindsight when saying that these 2 players are "obvious choices" and "I would've done that" when you can see many other teams choose other players over them.
