Well, since the rest of the draft was CMC, Samuel, Moton, Elder, Armah and Butker, I’d say oh well. You don’t hit on every pick in a draft. Problem comes when you only hit on 1 player per draft. We’ve reversed course on that after Rhule took over with his college player knowledge and we added Fitterer.

Good point.

Remember when Tepper said Hurney was like the best college talent evaluator...

that aged well and lasted a long time...it only set the team back a couple years keeping the Hurn dog around longer 

I think Tepper went overboard to justify keeping Hurney around for smooth transition or whatever reason. I always felt that Hurney would be canned - just didn’t seem to fit the direction of the new org.

Well, let's not get too carried away too quickly. We have one data point that also includes Hurney(2020 draft class). This is basically the first Hurney-free draft we have had, so this one is the real test. 

And we won't know the results for at least 2-3 seasons.

Another bad draft pick that made no sense.

I remember I think it was Jalen Ramsey hyping this guy up in the off-season. I was thinking, maybe I’m wrong and he does end up being a good player. Nope, he sucked and was just being hyped up by his friend.

You know how fans jokingly say they are better than their team's GM? Well I honestly think the majority of the huddle would have been better than Hurney. Holy hell this dude and his diamond in the rough reaches. The only dude I loathe more than this man was Ron and his stubborn ass coaching.........And we had these morons as a pair 😱 What a fuggin waste of a generational QB and a generation LB. Yes, I will never live that down until we win a superbowl.

We had a GM convinced he was good at finding diamonds in the rough when he couldn't tell the difference between the Hope diamond and a lump of coal, picking players for a coach that ordered his depth chart by seniority, so even if the lumps of coal had been diamonds, they would not have played, anyway.

By reversing course, I mean I don’t feel like a Jets fan in all those draft videos after they announce another stupid pick like I did when Marty took Little, Gaulden and Grier using 4, yes 4, day two picks. The past two drafts I didn’t want to yack after round 1.

Also, I still believe that the 2020 draft was extremely coach driven. Rhule was intent on fixing the D and that’s what he got.

Yeah, the last two drafts look like Rhule was largely in the drivers seat.

It is clearly his show right now.

      Serious Thoughts Fellas What numbers would Bryce..

      By Icege · Posted

      Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.

      Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on.

      Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
