Garrett Wilson has all the traits to be a star right out the gate. No guarantees  about surpassing Waddle or Smith but both of those guys have question marks too. 

Garrett Wilson and Jameson Williams are on that Waddle/Chase tier.  Chase was insane but people forget how good of a year Waddle had with Tua and Brissett in and out.  I'd peg both clearly ahead of Smith.  

 

Elsewhere:

Regarding the Jermaine Johnson Jr. front (he's been my choice for the Jets at 4), could be happening.

JJ Jr. (and Ickem) appear to be the names with the most smoke for them for NYJ.  If that happens, whoever is left of Sauce, Thibodeaux, Walker, Stingley could be hard for NYG to pass up.  Have no idea

Yeah Waddle is a baller too but I like the way Wilson attacks the ball. He plays way bigger than his frame would seem. All good players tho and I told one guy that the Jets never do anything  conventional  lol. Not saying J J will be bad but that seems steep at 4. The Pickett thing is really eating at me tho.  If we doing this, just to save Rhule job bc he the most ready,  then we in for a poo show. Pickett game tap just doesn't pop for me and looks like a carbon copy of Darnold college highlights.  If we trade back, I'd rather go the Baker route.  Not my favorite  Qb but that draft capital  in round 1 could help the next coach better if Rhule gets axed.

I don't want Pickett but man it would really suck to be a QB drafted by us knowing you have to pretty much win 8+ games off the bat with an unliked coach to save the team from resetting and keep the crappy coach. And if not, then being an underperforming sophomore for a rookie coach that he didn't handpick.

At this point, there’s reportedly at least 3-4 guys each teams are floating/been tied to at each pick in the top-5 haha 

JAX 1-Aiden, Neal, Walker, Ekwonu

DET 2-Aiden, Walker, Sauce, Willis

HOU 3-Sauce, Stingley, Neal, Wilson

NYJ 4-JJII, Thib, Ekwonu

NYG 5-Cross, Sauce, Stingley, Ekwonu, Thib

This is shaping up to be such a tossup

Bingo. Most likely, a new coach is here next year hoping to flip Pickett for a 3rd while he targets another QB. It is what it is. This is what we signed up for when we kept Rhule.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
