WEBVTT - Reviewing the 2022 Jets Draft (4/30) 0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:07.160 We are presented by went Bett. Betty is a team sport, 0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:10.520 but together at went Back, the team is here in 0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:14.840 full effect. It's Anthony Backs, Eric Coleman, Ethan Greenberg. Across 0:00:14.920 --> 0:00:18.080 the way, the Jets two thousand twenty two NFL Draft 0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:24.040 is over. I'm looking at the team's right now, and 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:26.200 I can read off a couple of lists for you. 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:29.360 But you've been paying attention to this for three days now. 0:00:29.640 --> 0:00:31.920 Do you think the Jets had the best draft out 0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:34.200 of anybody in the leak? Yeah? They did, no doubt 0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:37.400 about it. Um. I mean who wouldn't. If you didn't 0:00:37.440 --> 0:00:40.040 say the Jets, then you're clearly a Giants fan, right, 0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:41.760 That's really the only reason why you wouldn't say it. 0:00:41.880 --> 0:00:45.440 So uh yeah, I mean, you know, they got arguably 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:49.199 the best four guys at their position in college football. 0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:51.959 I mean, I don't even know where to like, how 0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:54.840 does it even fattom how that happens? But I think 0:00:54.840 --> 0:00:57.280 there's a lot of people that had these four players, 0:00:57.400 --> 0:00:59.800 in particular the four picks to let the first four 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:04.039 pick to the Jets as the number one positional player 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:09.320 for their on their boards. So um, With Gardner, Wilson, Johnson, 0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:12.080 and Hall That's a pretty good haul there. And then 0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:14.360 you know Rutgert. Listen, he's he was hiring a lot 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:18.200 of people's list as well. So really good uh weekend 0:01:18.680 --> 0:01:21.600 for Joe Douglas and company. And I'm excited to see 0:01:21.640 --> 0:01:23.600 all of them get on the field and start practicing. 0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:25.919 Before we get to Coleman, I want to go across 0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:32.560 the way to Greenberg here, Greens What about Baltimore, Chile, Hamilton, 0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:37.800 Tyler Linderball, David Najabo obviously coming off the Achilles, Travis 0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:43.480 Jones very impressive from Connecticut. They got a b S 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:49.320 big tackle for Minnesota. Um, they got Charlie Cohler, one 0:01:49.360 --> 0:01:53.480 of your favorite tight ends in Africa, Isaiah likely another 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.920 tight end. Uh. Do you think the Ravens give the 0:01:57.040 --> 0:01:59.360 Jets the run for the money here? I think that 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:01.600 the raven definitely had a very good draft. I think 0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:05.520 a lot of it depends on UM. Well, really, I 0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:08.000 think it could be David a Jabo, Like if he 0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:11.760 comes back fully healthy, I would imagine he's probably not 0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:13.799 playing this next season. But if he were to come 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:16.200 back and become the player that a lot of people 0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:18.680 thought he would be, you're talking about a potential top 0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:22.320 fifteen talent in whatever round they drafted him. I believe 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.919 it was the second round. So and you talk about 0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:27.600 what they did, to your point, A, they got the 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:31.600 best center in Tyler linder Baum somebody. I think there 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:33.880 would be some people that think that Tyler Linderbaum was 0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:37.120 a top fifteen prospect, let alone the top guy at 0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.799 his position. It just depends on what you think of 0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:41.639 him as a player. And Kyle Hamilton's felt like he 0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:43.840 kind of slipped out and was there for the Ravens taking. 0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:46.960 And I think the popular saying around the Ravens is 0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:49.160 just kind of like, oh, of course he's gonna be 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.760 good there. That's I think they've earned that kind of trust. 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:54.280 And you know, I think they've definitely had a good draft. 0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:57.680 But obviously we can't create a draft on April, you know, 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:01.800 or May one. But all indications are that they selected 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:06.560 very well. Yeah, because that's what people keep on talking about, 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:10.680 who will prove themselves the most. This week, Philadelphia's added 0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:14.639 into the equation. They trade for a j Brown acquire 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:17.800 him from the Tennessee Titans. Very interesting movement. They give 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:21.399 him a big contract where there is a direct connection, 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:24.840 I think to the Jets is the Jets take conversations. 0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:27.680 As we've talked multiple times, I think fans are mad 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:30.120 at maybe when I mentioned Tyreek Hill's name. I'm just 0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:32.400 looking back and saying, hey, this was part of the 0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.320 off season. And there was also a report this weekend 0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:38.360 that the Jets had made an offer for Deebo Samuel 0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:41.720 that included the number ten overall selections. So it's interesting 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:45.200 to wait this played out by looking back. Yeah, it 0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:47.520 is interesting. You know. You you talk about giving up 0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:50.760 a bunch of draft picks to to attain one of 0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:53.960 the one very good receiver, whether it be Deebo Samuel, 0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:56.840 Tyree Hill, a J Brown, whoever it is, and then 0:03:56.840 --> 0:03:58.840 you look back to that not working out and what 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:00.800 they got for it. You know, you you have to 0:04:00.800 --> 0:04:04.160 think that the Jets one in this situation looking at 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:07.440 looking at the potential of these players. You Sauce Gardner, 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:10.080 Jermaine Johnson, the guy who you traded for to get 0:04:10.120 --> 0:04:13.000 back into it. Um, you know, Garrett Wilson, you know, 0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:16.360 a dynamic receiver. There's so much value in these picks, 0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:18.920 and I think these guys are going to be foundational 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:21.240 pieces for this team for years to come. They're gonna 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.560 be guys that a lot of them are gonna be 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:26.360 Pro Bowlers. They're they're gonna be here for quite some time, 0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:29.039 you know. I I think they're just good, high character guys, 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:32.279 high football guys. They have a ton of speed, their playmakers, 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:35.680 and I think together as a group, they're gonna do 0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:38.880 much more than one receiver than adding one receiver would do. 0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.840 As you're building a roster, you have a quarterback after 0:04:41.920 --> 0:04:43.960 in his second year, so he's on his rookie deal. 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:47.920 Now a lot of your best players are very very 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:53.719 young players. So we're entering very um interesting time. But 0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:58.040 I think you gotta credit Joe Douglas, Staff and Robert 0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.400 Salo and company for getting the roster or to this 0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:06.000 point two. Yeah, I mean it amps up expectation levels, right, 0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.080 I mean that's the key. I mean, you know, you 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:10.440 see these guys get drafted at the top of the 0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:12.880 in the first round, and you know all all of 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:14.760 them could have went in the top four. I mean 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:18.400 that's how good they were top five even so, um, 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.000 you know, they did their homework, they got the guys 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:23.120 they need it. They're able to kind of throw the 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.560 dice out at that brief hall pick and bring a 0:05:25.560 --> 0:05:27.440 guy in as an at a piece because they kind 0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:29.960 of dominated the first round and got everything they needed. 0:05:30.839 --> 0:05:33.640 Um and uh. I think that every piece that they 0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:37.560 brought in will bring some type of uh be a 0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:40.440 some type of factor for this football team moving forward. 0:05:40.520 --> 0:05:43.080 So uh, you know you you mentioned Pro Bowl. I mean, 0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.320 I hope that's where we get with these guys. But 0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:49.720 they're gonna be immediate on the field and they're gonna 0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:52.040 help the Jets. Now you're not waiting, you know, you 0:05:52.120 --> 0:05:55.200 gotta wait six games into the first season for these guys. 0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:57.320 These guys are gonna be ready to go their seasons. 0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.240 In my opinion, there's you know, you don't you know, 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:02.440 take your time with them, Like, let's go get out 0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:04.400 there and do it. I mean, you know, there's a 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:08.560 catering process with a lot of rookie sometimes across the league. 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:11.320 I think with these guys, they show good maturity, they're 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:14.440 very high character, they work hard. They all have chips 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:16.840 on their shoulder, even Sauce. I mean, listen, nobody, nobody 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.080 even talked about him coming out of high school and 0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:21.760 look where he is now. Jermaine Johnson fighting all the 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:25.160 way through juchos and multiple schools and and and and 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:27.520 got disrespected. You know, some people said he was a 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:29.880 top five pick and he goes to which is the 0:06:29.920 --> 0:06:32.000 Jets are very fortunate. And then you know, of course 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:34.600 Garrett Wilson is a true playmaker and a guy that 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:36.720 probably lived up to the expectation of where he's at, 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:39.600 big time college, big time player, and got drafted high. Yeah, 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:41.640 and I don't want to put that expectation that they 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:43.200 got to be Pro Bowl players, but I just look 0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:45.640 at the potential as far as what they can do 0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:47.800 and how they fit into this team. I think they're 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:50.600 going to be put in position to make plays. You know, 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:53.320 you look at the defensive side of the ball, they're 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.800 gonna be impact players right now. What the talent that 0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:57.960 the team has right now and the way that this 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:01.360 defense is run, it's all about aitude effort, playing smart, 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:03.400 playing tough, and that's what these guys bring to the 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:06.480 table on defense. Offensively, you know, you have Garrett Wilson, 0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:08.760 and look at the receiving corps. You know you've got 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:13.040 Corey Davis, Braxton, Burios, Elijah Moore, the title, you got Conkling. 0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:14.800 You know, you have tight ends, you have an offensive 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:18.080 line to protect a run game now. I mean all 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.440 the pieces are kind of coming together to get the 0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:22.760 most out of all these players.

If you're someone you 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:51.520 know has a gambling problem, call one seven zero seven 0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:54.480 one one seven A Sauce Gardner. This he a perfect 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:57.720 fit for New York. He's he's got the swag, he's 0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:02.480 got the confidence, he's it's not over the top. Though. 0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:04.800 I know one thing that you you talked about he 0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:07.320 was that you loved that he said, I'm gonna absorb 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.960 everything like a sponge. Uh, you know, I just like 0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:13.320 what he brings to the table on the field and 0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:15.840 off the field. Yeah, I mean he he brings a 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:19.320 great attitude. He's a physical presence on the field, but 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.120 he has a confidence, but he has the humility as well. 0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:24.600 He understands that I'm a rookie, you know, I just 0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:26.720 got here. There's a lot for me to learn. And 0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.200 I think bringing that attitude along with the confidence of 0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:32.280 I can compete with everybody in this league. I think 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:34.240 that's just gonna help. You know, he's gonna be coached 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:37.120 up well. We've got some great defensive back coaches. Uh, 0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:39.120 he's playing in a great scheme. You know when I 0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:41.760 look at him, you know, size wise, he's like a 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:44.320 bigger version of Richard Sherman, and you think about him. 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:46.920 Sherman was on social media the other day praise and 0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:49.240 he said, this is a perfect spot. It's a great 0:08:49.240 --> 0:08:51.200 spot for him because he can play. Yeah, he can 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:53.240 play press coverage, you can play man to man, but 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:55.880 he excels playing off the ball as well playing zone. 0:08:56.040 --> 0:08:59.360 He has great instincts, he has a terrific footwork, He's long. 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:01.520 You know, he's gonna cause a lot of problems for 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:04.040 office to let me put you on the spot, man, 0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:09.520 what position group do you think God is most improved 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:12.680 at this point? You can include free agency in the 0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:16.760 mix here since January, I almost well, the biggest improvement 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:18.719 I would say tight ends when you talk about the 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:21.280 guys that you did C j uz Almo, Tyler Conklin. 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.160 Both of those guys could start for in the National 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.120 Football League. They're both on the Jets. Then you had 0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:28.480 a guy like Jeremy Ruckard. I know we kind of 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:31.880 talked about this yesterday e A. He's one of those guys, 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:34.400 Jeremy RUCKERD where if he steps in you can learn 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:36.800 from a guy like c j Usama, Tyler Conklin, you 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:38.480 stick your face in the fan. He's known as a 0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:41.520 run blocker. And the other position that I think is 0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:45.480 right where we stuck before was cornerback. Right now, it's 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:48.360 crazy to me, I almost really can't wrap my mind 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:50.800 around at that. Bryce Hall and Brandon Echols, who both 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:54.200 started last year, are now in the room that have 0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:57.640 Sauce Gardner d J Reid, And now you're talking about 0:09:57.640 --> 0:10:02.040 potentially there's a situation depending on how training camp shakes out, 0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:05.080 where Bryce Hall and Brandon eccles wouldn't start in a 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:08.319 base defense. Look for your team and all those guys 0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:12.040 that were rookies last year and second year players like 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.720 Hall and Eccles. I know Joe Douglas talked about this earlier. 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:17.960 They all got so much playing time that if their 0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:21.200 number were called at any point in the season, that 0:10:21.280 --> 0:10:23.200 you're not just being thrown into the fire and you 0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:24.960 don't know what you're gonna get. I feel like the 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.760 Jets know what they're gonna get, and those players should 0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:30.360 continue to develop. I think those two positions really stand 0:10:30.360 --> 0:10:34.920 out to me. All right, before we look at a 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.680 complete big picture, I think we gotta put a period 0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:40.640 of a couple of things, the trades of Jamal Adams 0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:45.920 and Sam Darnald. First off, the Jets have now used 0:10:45.920 --> 0:10:50.520 all the pics that acquired. It's a team Jamal Adams 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:54.000 UM in the Jamal Adams steel. I should say they 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:58.280 traded up to get Elijah Barra Tucker last year UM, 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:02.640 and then the obviously acquired Garrett Wilson with a number 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:06.839 ten overall selection this year. So essentially that part of 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:09.880 the deal. I know that we're other things coming coming 0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:12.240 and going there as far as the package is concerned, 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:15.600 but essentially you're talking Jamal Adams for Elijah, Barrett Tucker, 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:21.360 and Garret Wilson. Yeah, Elijah tuckers like he's gonna be 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:23.559 here forever, Like he's that good. So that that's a 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.960 that's a stud move right there. And you know, Garrett 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:28.720 Wilson's kind of rubbing on me a little bit. I 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.920 like his demeanor, I like his the way he speaks, 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.800 I love his game. Um, you know he comes from 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:38.959 you know, Brian Hartline, who played a long time receiver 0:11:39.080 --> 0:11:43.439 in the NFL, was his coach. And uh, he's developing 0:11:43.640 --> 0:11:47.720 good people, you know, extraordinary players, but good people. And 0:11:47.760 --> 0:11:50.280 I think that speaks volumes to to what they're getting. 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:54.199 So um, you know, look, all due respect to Jamal Adams, 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:56.640 you know he had some good years here, but clearly 0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.960 you know he's probably on the top of the mount 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:03.520 kind of rolling down, whereas you're getting to rising one, 0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:06.200 rising star for sure because we've seen him playing. This kid, 0:12:06.559 --> 0:12:08.880 I mean with those numbers, Uh, he's gonna get his 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:11.719 chance now to be great. Yeah, Jamal is still a 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:14.640 very good player in the National Football League, and when 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:17.559 he's gonna be healthy, he's gonna get after that quarterback. 0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:19.240 He's gonna sell in the box. We know what he 0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:22.680 can do, but in Jordan white hands gonna bring that now, people, 0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:25.000 I'm serious. Now, I'm telling you, if he just matches 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:27.400 what he did with the Bucks, I saw every snap 0:12:28.080 --> 0:12:32.199 we were talking said, uh oh boy, he's gonna be 0:12:32.280 --> 0:12:34.520 in a reference and you're like the guy all over 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:37.880 the field maybe a white had. I felt like, I 0:12:37.920 --> 0:12:39.320 hope he's not watching it. I thought we got we 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:41.480 got him on the cheap. In my opinion, we got 0:12:41.480 --> 0:12:44.440 a good deal for him. And I'm telling you, I 0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:46.520 do a lot of spots and down in Tampa talking 0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:50.480 about them, and I talked about him every Monday morning 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:53.600 because he shows up. Kid guy shows up and that's 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:55.960 a pretty good defense. Todd bowls at down there. So 0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:58.800 you know he's gonna come here man, like he's gonna earn. 0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:01.360 He's gonna demand some early respect. Like we're gonna hear 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:03.480 Robert Salad and some of these guys tell him like dude, 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:06.120 this George Whitehead. He's a dude, and you're gonna be 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:08.280 excited about him, and he should show up. I mean, 0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:10.680 I'm telling you, if he's just the same dude, the 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:14.240 same guy, it's gonna be more than the expectation of 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:15.960 what he should be. I'm gonna go check to see 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:19.360 what Seattle used with their fourth round pick they got 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:22.400 from the Jets. That's going to complete the deal. But 0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:26.000 also Sam Donald. Now, if you look at it and 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:29.200 look at the draft picks acquired, the Jets got Jonathan 0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:34.160 Marshall late last year, they get Max Mitchell here on 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:37.160 Day three of the draft, and then of course move 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:39.760 up there in the second in order to get Breese Hall. 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:43.200 So if you're looking at it, you can say Sam 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:46.800 Donald for three players. Yeah, I mean Sam Donald was 0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:50.160 a guy who um never really turned the corner for 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:52.320 the Jets. And I think that if you're trying to 0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:54.400 move forward as the organization, you bring in, you know, 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:57.400 a new head coach, a new offensive coordinator, it's time 0:13:57.440 --> 0:13:59.280 to move on. You know, you bring Zack Wilson in, 0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:01.360 your gonna move on for the quarterback to get as 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:03.840 much as you can. And I like the value that 0:14:03.880 --> 0:14:06.800 they got for Sam. You know, I think Sam was 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:09.599 a great guy, great teammate, but he didn't fit and 0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:11.720 you have to have the players in that fit the scheme. 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.880 And by drafting these young guys you're able to develop 0:14:14.920 --> 0:14:17.040 them and turn them into those players that you that 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:20.720 you need to to play in this this team. Uh, Greens, 0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:24.400 I think you talked to Joe Douglas. Maybe it was 0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:26.720 last night after the first night of the draft, or 0:14:27.000 --> 0:14:30.040 what have you've been most impressed with so far here, 0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:35.560 either over the past eighteen months or during this offseason specifically. Yeah, 0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:37.160 I think it kind of goes hand in hand with 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:39.520 what you were both or what you all three you 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:41.480 were talking about. The one thing that I want to 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:43.400 say before I answered the question is I think that 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:45.760 a lot of credit should go to Joe Douglas because 0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:50.240 I don't think it was necessarily a unanimously popular pick 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.800 amongst Jets fans to deal those two guys in Jamal 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:56.000 Adam and Sam Donald. He did, and you just laid 0:14:56.000 --> 0:14:58.080 it out. It feels like you've got great return for 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:00.840 both of those players. Especially it's kind of what Anthony 0:15:00.880 --> 0:15:02.880 said before, like you take a look at what they've 0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:05.920 done across the league rather recently, and they've had their moments, 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.240 and Jamal Adams was hurt last year and so was Sam. 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:10.520 But you know, if you told Jets fans that you 0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:12.600 traded Jamal Adams for the Hall that you got and 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:16.120 Sam Donald. I think that fans would be on board 0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:17.880 with it, but obviously you don't know what you're gonna 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:20.080 get in those players when you deal those guys. What 0:15:20.120 --> 0:15:22.640 I've been most impressed with is just how Joe Douglass 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:25.320 navigates the draft and how he's really overhauled the roster 0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:29.320 pretty quickly. I mean, his first draft, he didn't have 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:32.440 the scouting process or he was hired in two thousand 0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:37.320 nineteen into two thousand twenty, so he Here's where I 0:15:37.400 --> 0:15:39.760 come back. Toy was more of a trade back here, 0:15:39.800 --> 0:15:42.440 and you're like, oh, is this gonna be Joe Douglass 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:46.720 mL Well one comes around, goes up nine spots. He's like, 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:48.760 this is our guy, Elijah Bett. Tucker gives up two 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.080 third round picks. He kind of lets the draft board 0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.840 come to him. Same thing this year. He goes up 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:55.920 and he gets his guy, Jermaine Johnson. He goes up 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.640 and gets Breece Hall, and I think, really what I've 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:02.400 been most impressed with is the way that he's overhauled 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:07.440 the roster pretty dramatically, pretty quickly as well, specifically in 0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:09.880 the last twelve months. And I just think that Joe 0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:13.240 Douglas is a guy where he won't get fleeced, and 0:16:13.320 --> 0:16:16.880 he also will go up and make sacrifices with draft 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:19.480 capital to get the guy that he feels is best 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.240 suited for the football team. And we've seen that. So 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.280 I should say as part of that, Jamal Adam steel 0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:29.720 Hawks use the Jets fourth round pick in order to 0:16:29.760 --> 0:16:34.080 take former Sauce Gardner teammate at Cincinnati, that of course 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:40.160 is Kobe Bryant. But those deals have set the Jets 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:44.240 up for what they're going to become here in the future, 0:16:45.360 --> 0:16:49.200 because listen, the Jets said that they were gonna be 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.560 comfortable with Sam Donald. They just thought this was a 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:55.080 very unique opportunity to get Zach Wilson. Speaking of that, 0:16:56.520 --> 0:16:58.760 look at the quarterbacks this year. Every year we talked 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:02.240 about the draft and we start with the quarterbacks. Well 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.840 that wasn't the case this year. Kenny Pickett was the 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:07.480 only quarterback to be taken in the first round. He 0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:10.480 goes to the home town Pittsburgh Steelers. Is actually a 0:17:10.520 --> 0:17:13.480 New Jersey native. Malik Willis who people have been talking 0:17:13.480 --> 0:17:17.560 about four months. Maybe he's a top fifteen selection. He 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:20.680 falls all the way to the third round, Matt Correll 0:17:20.840 --> 0:17:22.920 goes late, What did you think about what you saw 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:25.600 from the quarterbacks? No surprise there, No, that's kind of 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:28.080 what I expected, you know, and the media and all 0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:30.639 the pundits kind of we're pushing me and jabbing me 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:32.879 to think otherwise. You know, everybody's like, oh, no, you're 0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:34.800 gonna get four guys in the first round. I mean, 0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:37.720 this is that you know, Seattle, Atlanta, all these teams, 0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:41.280 and I'm just like, man, you know, like it's okay 0:17:41.320 --> 0:17:44.080 that we don't have a top tier quarterback. And quite frankly, 0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:47.080 there's a lot of good quarterbacks in the league right now. 0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:50.679 Unfortunately that some of the better ones are young. You know, 0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:52.399 you still got the old heads that are across the 0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:54.960 league doing their thing. But you know, you're talking about 0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:57.400 now where you're getting some quality picks that are coming 0:17:57.440 --> 0:17:59.640 up to the league and making plays and like they're 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:01.800 gonna be there for a long time. So it is 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:03.520 hard to jump in and just say, hey, you gotta 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:05.600 take this guy. He's gonna start like look at you know, 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:07.520 pick it as he guaranteed to be the start of 0:18:07.560 --> 0:18:09.400 this year. I don't even know. I mean, Mason Rudolphe 0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:13.040 he'll make it hard and whatever else and Mr Bisky, 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:15.119 I mean, you know that's like, you know, what's the 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:17.760 most ironic thing about the whole Sam Donald fit is 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:21.919 that Carolina Panthers just took Yeah, and a lot of 0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:24.360 people thought he was going to be a first round pick. 0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:26.840 You know, he had a phenomenal season. I think you know, 0:18:26.880 --> 0:18:29.639 that kind of sends a message to Sam as to 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:32.320 what they want to do. Matt rules under fire right now. 0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:35.720 And I think that pick of Matt Correll is going 0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:39.320 to uh push dam hopefully to be the best player 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:43.240 he could be. It's it's such an advantage you walk 0:18:43.280 --> 0:18:45.399 into a draft him and a quarterback in place like 0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:49.399 this year. You know, Matt rule to how it's different. 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:53.639 He's got final sale roster here. We have a partnership 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:57.080 with Robert Sala and Joe Douglas, and Joe's got a 0:18:57.080 --> 0:19:00.920 great staff, you know, Rex Hogan, Chat, Alexander Phil Savage. 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:04.240 Seasoned dudes have been around some good organizations. You need 0:19:04.280 --> 0:19:07.040 that you start coming in and making all this money 0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:08.520 as a coach, and you say, well, I gotta have 0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:10.920 final say on the roster. We'll look at them, you know, honestly, 0:19:11.119 --> 0:19:14.159 and I like Matt, but you know, it's not college anymore. 0:19:14.160 --> 0:19:16.840 It's a different deal. And you know Matt, I saw 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:18.920 Matt Combine looks a little older, a little grayer in 0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:21.000 the hair. I mean, just a couple of years. I mean, 0:19:21.000 --> 0:19:23.800 it's so it's it's not it's not easy deal. That's 0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:26.040 why you get the right people in the building. And 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:27.560 and that's what you see. And this is a perfect 0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:30.439 example of a draft where everybody's on the same page. Man, 0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:33.600 everybody's excited. And and you got those guys in the 0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:36.800 organization that that have been through the Rigors Area. Scouts 0:19:36.800 --> 0:19:40.159 work a big time organizations and received the knowledge to 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:42.560 make trades like Joe Douglas did, to move up to 0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:45.159
