00:20 Jake: Welcome to the Jet Kingdom podcast, the longest running New York Jets. podcast I'm Jake and joining me Fresh faced forever Justin You say so How you doing bud? I'm good. It's been a long time since we rock and rolled. How about that? Justin: I'm just throwing stuff on this agenda like as it's going I'm just remembering tons of shit that we talked about in having podcasted in a while in a month. It's It's been a month. Jake: It's been seven months. Oh, sorry. It's been a, So we have, first of all, let's just, let's just, how much time do we have? We a bit of an hour. We have, yeah, an hour, maybe a little longer. Okay, hour-ish. Hour-ish. Hour-ish plus. Yeah. Plus plus. Great. We got tons to talk. So many things. First and foremost, in things that have happened since the last podcast, So we're gonna talk about the new uniforms. We're gonna talk about the new logo. We're gonna talk about the schedule. Talk about OTAs. And then let's mock up the draft. Give it to me. Okay, alrighty then. So let's start with the uniforms. It was April 4th, 2019. And they did the release party, which is so cool. Is I watch the video so much fun, so bad. It was Be Smooth. What's his name? Oh, the actor. Oh, Jamie's Jamie's. Yes, he was the hype man. Justin: He's got style. Jake: They it was a lot of talky talky. It was a lot of going out and Leon's the best. Anyway, it was. It was fun. I think it's funny because I remember b watching like the ones like the Browns and they did theirs and going like this is going to Corny. Justin: And it was just as corny. But how happy is this guy? Why is this guy so happy? Why Why did this guy get what he wanted? Jake: Because you wanted the all blacks. Justin: All blacks. Jake: Yeah, you got it. All blacks. Justin: So we're at home. Jake: At night, unless you have been Because the old logo, while logos are so important to us, and it really defines a thing,
03:00 Jake: the old logo was hand-drawn, which is one of the issues of it. And it never scaled well, up or down. And it wasn't even right. Like the, both the sphere of it and the sphere of the ball were not the sphere of the real footballs. So like the whole thing was like off. Plus, so what happened is they, you know, they, they did all caps on the jets. They moved New York above it, as opposed to being a big and why behind it, which is always kind of weird looking. They put New York. So it's a New York jets. Great. They made the football reel. They made the outer football reel. They brought in a black line, which is the only way that they can do the unis. Justin: And the shading underneath the letters. Jake: Yeah. And, and then they made the whole thing in actual football shape. So I I know that's stupid, but that's the only way we can get the uniforms, because you can only have uniforms based on colors that are in your logo. That's how they got the black uniforms, is by bringing in black into the logo, which wasn't there before, and it's just much better. And what I love about it is that if you look at it quickly, you just see the old Jets logo. Like, if I just wore it and I have a couple new ones. If I were the old logo or the new logo, and unless you're kind of in the AFC East, you're not going to notice. Justin: Yeah, I've noticed myself like when I've been reading websites and whatever and they've been putting up the schedule, I'll see like the jet logo, they're using the old logo and then I'll zoom in and I'll like, oh no, it's not. It's the new logo. It's very, like, at a glance, it looks almost exactly the same. Jake: But there's some real big fundamental changes to it. Which are great. Justin: I think in the scheme of things, it's all well and good. And it led to us being able to have an all-black uniform, which is all I care about. Jake: So the new logo is out. That's awesome. And I think it's evolutionary. I also think it's something that... it doesn't need to? Change like that all the logo needed to change because it because it had a bad color in it that that green was never a great green. It was a very weird dark. It was a very Justin: dark the actual color was dark when we changed back to the old that logo and that uniform. Yep, I loved that change. I wasn't a huge fan of like the late 70s 80s early 90s the jet Smells not a fan of it because we were so terrible I know that was when I was growing up as a kid like that's what I knew them as this garbage green garbage can and a
06:16 Jake: I thought it was great. I thought the funny part was that the rumors on the interwebs were just so all over the place and wrong. That was funny. And everyone just taken stabs at it. In the background, it took a long time. This took aook years and years and years. I don't really know what I wanted to say. I don't think I wanted to Justin: say much. Not much. I would stick to saying nothing. Okay, but it took years. They did talk about it at the police party. That it was a and big thing. I would stick to nothing. Okay. Jake: Then they also, which I think made the bigger news, was the new uniforms. of the Gotham City. But that might. I was a big fan of that. I hope it comes back. So the uniforms are made up of a new helmet, which is a dark green helmet. And then there's three colored. Justin: With a different logo. Jake: Well, it's the inside of the logo. It's just the jets. Justin: Doesn't say New York on it. Just the jets. Jake: It does. But on the uniform, you now have three. You have, they call it, is it spotlight white? See if I can remember them. There's Gotham Green and there's... something blackout black or whatever. Anyway, I think all of them look great. They are, it's just much more sleek. There's a new New York across the, over the numbers. It just looks updated and good. It does look a little bit, I would say, some people complain it looks a little bit, maybe like the Seahawks, maybe a little. Justin: That's not where I was going. Jake: Oh, what do you think? Justin: They look like college uniforms. Jake: A little bit. Justin: They look a lot like college, I could point out, I could actually pull up. the exact uniform. Jake: Really? What is it? Justin: My friend sent it to me. I will find it while you go and keep doing it. Jake: I mean that's the thing with uniforms. You're not gonna do like duckies. Like it's always gonna have stripes and things and whatever. Justin: Oh, here we go. So it looks exactly like the Eastern Michigan uniform. You look for it Eastern Michigan? I mean, it's a dead ringer. I'm looking I can send you the photo if you'd like that's close I mean it says Eastern Michigan on it the thing on the shoulder the color even Like I said, it's a dead rare Pretty close when you yeah, if you want to get down to pixels and like looking at right first that yeah Well different it looks very similar and you know very quick at least the plants. It looks exactly the same Yeah, the the jersey Jake: Yeah, the... We have our own font now, which is cool, right?
09:02 Jake: Anyway, I love them. I think it's great. Again, it doesn't really matter. One, I think the color is better. The green is better just across the board. Justin: Let's move past this. Two, we got uniforms. Fucking awesome. Jake: Oh, okay, fine. All blacks. That's all we care about. Justin: I just wanna rock an all black to a night game. Jake: It's my dream. Well, it'll happen. Justin: I've been talking about it for years on this podcast. 10 years I think I've been talking about this. I want an all black uniform. Jake: It's gonna be good. All right. And then. Justin: Then we got a schedule. Jake: Then we got the schedule for 2019, the New York fighting jets. Justin: We have a funky schedule. all. Jake: Well, there's a couple of things that are really... There's a fucked up part of this schedule. Cool slash weird slash fun slash whatever. One is we don't ever leave the East Coast. No, we do not leave... The Eastern Time Zone. We don't leave our time zone. No, I just landed on the 2018. Justin: So yeah, we don't leave our time zone. We also are home three out of the four preseason games, because we have the road game with the Giants this year. So while that week one is against the Giants, as to not play week three and get everyone killed, and they're actually playing this year, and we're actually playing the Giants in the regular season. So that's game one, and the Eagles will be game four, and that's at home. Also, week three is at home. So we really don't leave New York for a very long time. Okay. Which is fantastic. Cause we open at home with two home games right off the bat in the regular season. One of which is on Monday night against the Browns, which is a rematch. We said that's going to be a prime timer. Jake: Well, we got so good big recap right we got three front we got three prime times but no Sunday night we have Two Monday nights and a Thursday the prediction is that the that the one that'll get seen a week 16 Justin: If it matters the pits for a game the Steelers or the Jets can make the playoffs I'm certain that game will get flexed if Le'Veon Bell is still healthy. Yes I'm looking at the schedule and I know we're gonna do predictions like way way down the road. Yes. I'm just looking at December December's fucked. This is not cool First of all, we play five times in December. I assume everyone else does since the first is a Sunday Yeah, but look at like what is going on there with we have a division game against the dolphins Then we have to go on the road four days later. We're talking especially a star with Bengals Yeah, I I get that that's in December, but I'm looking at like this last four games. Look three of the last four dolphins four days later In week 15 go to on the road to the Ravens. Yeah
12:00 Justin: And then you get the Steelers like that's a pretty daunting task But you have a lot of games that's that's three games in 14 days That is or in 13 days at the end of a season that is rough, but you do get that Jake: Well, you get the extra little mini buy after the Ravens. Justin: I mean, you gotta go on a road on a night, that means you got off a game on Sunday, I'm going to talk about the Jake: Yeah, well, let's all hope. They take away. Justin: We play some of the rookie quarterbacks again from like, you know, we play. We see them except for Rosen and we don't know where Rosen is actually going to end up. We see Baker. We see Josh out. We're going to see him every year twice. Yep. And we see Lamar. Jake: So we're playing these guys all Sam versus his cohort happening next year. That's kind of fun. It'll be a lot of fun. So things I like about it off the top. I like the start. I kind of like those first three games. just like. the worst. Like you want like 10s. It's like you have I like you have three games and then you're barely played. Yeah, anyway, it's a long stretch from there. I like that we play both Patriot games early again. to week seven we played them twice already. I like our NFC East home games. Justin: I like the fact that we have the Giants as a home game and the Cowboys as a home game. One could argue that it'd be better to have the Giants as a road game because it was sort of an extra home game. But I like the fact that that'll be a Jets game. Yes, this particular season. Yep. And I also like having the Cowboys in town. That's a fun game. Like, you know, Eagles, not a far trip. the Jake: there is very little travel on this schedule I think the longest is going on Miami which we go we go down to Justin: that's a game in December which is Jake: great that's a great time to play Miami is no, sorry yet no we play Justin: that's good for cold Yeah, we don't we want them to Jake: And you know what? Unlike most seasons, I didn't look at this and just think, oh shit. Like yeah, that end, that last, but it's the last stretches kind of tough. That last stretch is kind of tough. That last stretch is kind of and we have a lot of, um, we've got to like teams coming back. So we have the rematch up with the, with, uh, Baker. So that's big. We have that one. Um... I mean, Eagles, everybody's gonna get up. There's nothing really about the Cowboys, but I do like the... Justin: I feel like we've played the Jags, like, every year for the last four years. Jake: And the Dolphins is gonna be fun just because of the coach thing, so that's gonna be a little bit of revenge,
15:01 Jake: a double revenge game. Justin: Did you see that really interesting? Sam Darnold had some interesting comments about, like, we're gonna get into OTAs in a second, so this will, I H, will be a good segue. Sogui. Sogui, as they say. about Sam D. Arnaud was talking rather intellectually about how it was good for him to be able to talk to Adam Gace about how Adam Gace game planned against him. And that to me is great. Like he should know all the things that they saw as weaknesses in him same Having Greg Williams Jake: But I think we're gonna come get him well, that's Odell coming home Justin: Come home Right out Jamal wish him well Jake: Yeah, so I did what I was impressed I think it looks just like from watching the pressors and stuff Sam's looking a little bit more relaxed I'm just happy that he's getting a seed go through the whole thing after a season like I Again, so much is riding on that kid's head. Justin: Like so much. His shoulder. His right shoulder. His right shoulder. Be a little he can morph he can sit in the pocket and do those things he can roll left he can roll right He can he he actually looks down the field Jake: He can be coached into a proper but can we can we just for a second acknowledge that my dream has come true Justin: Yeah, we're going into the draft and we're not talking about quarterback. Yeah, that is it's finally happened Jake: I see this every everyone I read this is the thing I've been waiting for for I don't know 10 years was like have to go into the draft and not have Mel Kiper. I guess Mayox now he's on a team but so he's not him anymore. Not have Mel Kiper. Well let's put up the the Jets needs for for tomorrow. Okay well we well definitely quarterback. Quarterback number one. You got to need a number one need quarterback. They've been trying for years not since Sanchez. I guess after we drafted Sanchez that first year. Justin: and maybe a second year we were not. Even the first number of years we were not in the market for a free ride. Probably three with him but then after that it was like oh quarterback again. Oh and they traded for Chibo and then they fucked it up and drafted Gino Jake: and then it just became a shit show. It's so super happy that that's what we're talking about. So that is just it's just it's a dream and I know It's not reality because he hasn't shown that he hasn't done anything yet. He won three games. Glimpses, you know, ups and downs.
18:01 Jake: Three, four, five games we win. He he ended the season better than he started. And that's the big one is that last four games. Everybody talks about the last four games. They're like, those last four games, he had six touchdowns, one interception. He had the best. Justin: QB rating in the league. He was basically in the top five in stats. So it's like he looked really good and that was with shitty weapons. Well remember we were talking about last season how those three games probably helped him. Yeah. And they probably did. Looking back at it. I think he came back and he had a little bit of a different perspective on the game I think. And he had a chance to just... just sort of chill and take it all in and not have to be ready for the next week. No, it's okay. You got it. You're not even dressing. Jake: Well, I think this conspiracy theory that they kept him out. Justin: I think that I agree with that conspiracy theory. I think I was on it at the moment. Jake: So OTAs are happening. Justin: They started. Jake: Not really much. Yeah, not really much news except for... Justin: Maybe Ambel wasn't there, they're saying he doesn't matter. Like, yeah, I'd like to see him there, but I'd like to see him there, but I'm not right and Lee's not there Yeah, they have a lot of rumors that Darren Lee's on the trade block He's already been traded during this course of like Wheeling and dealing during the draft that Darren Lee is gonna be a player that's gonna be packaged up and sent away. Right. For something. For something. Something in return. Probably a draft pick. Jake: And then we have the draft tomorrow. We have the draft. Tomorrow and Friday. I will be there. I will be there. I'm going down to Tennessee. I'm going on Tennessee. Little Nash Vegas. Very much looking forward to it. I got all my new Jets gear. Jack's barbecue. Oh, Jack's barbecue. That'll be happening. That'll be my dinner. Justin: That'll be... Jack's barbecue. Before the draft and then go to the draft and get like a bologna sandwich afterwards, a fried bologna sandwich and a PBR. Sounds good. Jake: No. Maybe barbecue before, barbecue after. Justin: That also sounds good to me. Jake: We pick so early. It's like... Justin: Yeah, but you're not just gonna leave. No, no, maybe just head into Nashville. Well, you don't know when we're gonna pick. Yeah, it's true All right, so let's schedule to pick third. So let's talk about it. What do you what do you what do you think? Jake: The Jets what do you do the Jets make me? No, what do you think your big? What do you think? Our big your big needs are I mean last year we were looking back at our nose Justin: is as as much as we can say like All right, we don't want to see this quarterback as a need. Well, there's been this other thing that's been a need for just as long. Since John Abraham. A pass rusher. Yeah. A pure edge pass rusher. Not a guy who's in a 3-4 who gets his way because, you know, he's like a Mo Wilkerson type. Who's not like a pure pass rusher. Uh, John Abraham literally yeah off the edge. I'm gonna line up in a three four four three
21:01 Justin: Don't care how I line up this dudes on the outside. I'm coming for you. It's Von Miller styles It's you know any of these guys. It's Khalil Mac. It's those guys. I'm coming around the edge You have to game plan. Yeah, and it hurries the quarterback up. Yep, and it screws up the timing of everything And it makes every level of the defense better when you can single-handedly one guy can get to the quarterback Jake: Could he got chip in me a double on right? Justin: Yeah, it was off tight end routes it throws off running backs coming out of the backfield it it can scrub Even just how you even run your snap count if Us as a crowd get loud enough. Yeah, like we can cause some serious issues with a pass rusher so I would like to see us pick a pass rusher and publicly do it like don't don't pick like one of these like Vernon Gholstens like well That was that was the he was supposed to be that guy one sort of saw through that like except for us, which is weird I prefer like let's get a dude who's in the mold of today's NFL who can again a Khalil Mac a Von Miller a Vic Beasley a 3 4 4 3 doesn't matter. They're just gonna play the edge and there they can set it on run plays and they can disrupt in the passing game if they have to. Jake: There's some good news in this draft. I think actually the last two drafts. So the two drafts before this we picked Williams and then then Adams. Last year picked Sam Darnold. But last year was the quarterback draft. It was a draft for quarterbacks. And there were five of them and we needed one and we got... One of the top three. Let's call it. I say top two. I'd say we have in the top two We maybe have the best one maybe not but we got one of the top two ones and I think we will look back again You saw we're talking about a schedule like there's gonna be four of them playing next year Starting on week one all five of them started last year. I think in one week I think it was late in the season all five started which is incredible once Lamar Jackson Justin: Once Lamar Jackson like took the job from Joe Flacco and once I think rosin got it pretty quick Because he got in pretty quick Sam started from a wing made big Yes, we did we are so stupid oh my god And again the bills went to Allen pretty quickly but he had some injuries so there was injury factors I think like around week 1011 ish Jake: All five started, which I think was the moment. Anyway, but here we are next year. We don't need a quarterback. This is not a quarterback draft. Justin: It's like one guy. There's a guy to pick if you want him. And Arizona's picking one. And I think they are smokescreening the , hell. There is no way. I don't know.
24:21 Justin: I don't know. I don't know. Jake: I don't know. Justin: So I can't see how they actually pick a quarterback. Really? I can't see it. Oh brand new coach. I can't see it. So what? New coach. Who cares? I don't think they fired their GM. Jake: No, they didn't. Justin: How does that GM not get fired? If they're going to go pick a quarterback. I don't know. Like if you're so sold on the quarterback that you picked, first of all, they didn't pick Lamar, right? They picked Rosen. They had a choice. They could have picked Lamar, the guy who started a playoff game. Right. But they didn't. They chose Josh Rosen. Yeah, they did. And this GM, they're gonna let him pick another quarterback? I think this is all... Smoke screen. All to get as much as they possibly can. That is a team devoid of talent. They need as many picks as possible. And I think Washington will be the team that does it because they've done it before. Jake: Just give away the house. Justin: Here's a bunch of number one picks. Just give us that first overall. We're gonna pick our guy. And that'll be that. And that's gonna happen. That quarterback will like Murray. That's the name out of Oklahoma. He'll go first. Kyle Murray. He'll go first. I don't think it'll be to Arizona Jake: Okay, I will say What's nice about this is I don't really give a frick because we can swear on this one. I don't give a fuck because If if what we're number one need is is a pass rusher There's three guys that all kind of grading out the same. It's kind of an up-and-down. I mean, I think it's It's really been Bosa. Justin: You guys would want, though, on the edge. Jake: It's Bosa, Allen, and Williams are the three that everybody's talking about. I've seen Williams ranked higher than Bosa. I've seen Bosa. Justin: A lot of people have us with this guy out of Muhammad Wilkerson again. And it's like, okay, we've gone down that path. We still never had a pass rush. Well, but the year a, the-.. Jake: I'm going to do a video on the
27:11 Justin: the I think he would actually get past the Giants. It was just like, yeah, the Giants are gonna pick Barkley and they're gonna live with that. But I don't know, maybe, maybe this guy Williams being the best player, player in the draft. That the Niners picking second. Remember the Niners only are picking second because they their quarterback got injured super early in the season. And then they were just done. But that team was on the upswing. It was. And that team was supposed to be pretty good. It was. And I would think, going into next season, that they're still looking at themselves being like, we're a pretty talented team, like we can be pretty good. So maybe they just go best player. And maybe the best player is what their mind Williams, right? I mean they have other defensive lineman that they've picked in the first round over the last three four years edge defensive ends like what's named Boris Buckner something like that Like I don't know why they would necessarily pick Bosa other then they would think he's the best players. They're gonna pick who they think is the best player. I'd like to see Bosa on the team only because I know him. I've seen him play. He's got the pedigree. His brother's really good. I mean, that actually is a thing, right? Yeah, it is. Jake: I think from a New York standpoint, the Bosa, I can... The jerseys, the whole thing, like it's... You could just see it having more of like a splash. Justin: And his headband, like his... There'll be a lot of gents had been sold, guarantee it. Jake: Like his I see that as a splash play. But I really want to happen. Is I really want someone to to come up and grab the pick. And I want to. And I. Well, I mean, it's a bunch of people. It's someone else who wants there's someone who drops down and they want to jump up and grab the other quarterback because there's. again, there's other quarterbacks But you're but you're fighting against somebody else you're thinking that's picking forth Raiders who need a quarterback. Why not? Justin: They hate their car Okay Who's picking after them? Jake: They're not picking quarterbacks. They don't need a quarterback. Then Giants, who need a quarterback. Justin: They might pick, but that might be the place where if Arizona's not fucking around, that might be the Josh Rosen landing spot.
30:01 Justin: That's what a lot of people call it. Jake: Then the Jags, who've signed up there, then Lions. Justin: They don't need a quarterback. They're not gonna pick one in the first round at least. Jake: But I think it's the Broncos that move up. Justin: Because they don't want someone else to move up necessarily need to move to the Jets unless they feel as though they have to move ahead Of their division rival Oakland and get ahead of oak. That's right. And that would be the team to trade with It's great. And that's what I want. We can get a pass or shirt 10 just like you can at three You probably don't get the Bosa or you know the Impact guy right you don't get the Bond Miller you don't get the Jake: Kalil Mack. But you give me you give you go one to one so three to ten you give me they also have eight picks in this draft Denver does just saying that's a lot. We would need to get like next year's one and this year's two. And this year I want to swap the ones and then the one next year and Justin: the Broncos are going to suck again. I think about it. I don't have a quarterback. Jake: Yeah, and having two. I think Joe Flacco. Two ones next year would be nice. Ben, that's when you surround. And honestly, if we get down to 10, that's where I'd pick the, I mean, I just think we need a center. I would rather, I'd rather put all in on a first round center. I don't know if there's anybody. Yeah. Justin: There's a, there's a. There's a couple. There's a couple. Florida. a Jake: two on Tyler Taylor and then John Williams Justin: yet I think they're grading him out is more like I'll be a guard yeah Jake: Like you're gonna draft him as attack and Cody Ford is one other one I've heard a lot I mean Justin: I would like to see us get some offensive line help. We did some in You know some help there in in the free agency I'm sure one of these mid-round picks will be used on offensive line Jake: We just don't have a lot of picks Justin: We got six we have six and we got to use them all we can't be trading around like tan about them and end up with four Jake: No That's why I wouldn't mind going up. But then again, we've had the drafts in these top picks where I think we've, for the last three years, we've ended up with pretty much a great player. A great player. Right, so I'm ready for it. I'm ready for it. Justin: So last year was Darnold, the year before that was Adams. Jake: And then Williams. Justin: no no Lee and then Williams before that was Leonard Williams Jake: because we was I mean Williams was high pick I guess high pick but he was like four but Lee wasn't Lee was lower yeah Justin: because we just missed the playoffs that year right that Ryan Fitzpatrick year Oh man, he's gonna be fun to watch for the dolphins. Jake: Oh my god. It's gonna be great. Tanking. They're tanking. Justin: They're like, oh, we need to not make the playoffs. Let's get Fitzpatrick in here. Jake: I just want to go back two years ago in the Wayback Machine that we literally talked about sucking for Sam Donald. Justin: Yeah, we did. We sucked and we got Sam. Jake: I mean, that whole thing actually ended up happening.
33:01 Jake: And then here we are a year later with the... with With the outcome is we're not looking for a quarterback, which is the best part. I mean you have I guess of everybody Probably us and the Browns are settled And do you feel like the Bills have a they feel like they have their guy I think the Bills feel like damn the bills do but the rest of the does the rest of the world look at that And go oh yeah, Josh Allen. He's really good. I don't I mean we watched him play He couldn't he couldn't throw a touch plot touch pass if he liked to hang it on it. Yeah, but he I mean Justin: He reminded me of Cam Newton. I mean that dude is athletic as all athletic can be and ran around and ran around always. And he ran for 100 yards against us. Jake: So what? It was effective. Yeah. Justin: It's an effective style and he has an arm. He has a big arm. He just can't. He has no touch. If I said to you, do you want Cam Newton? You'd probably say yes. Jake: No. Justin: You don't want Cam Newton? Jake: All his Super Bowls? His rings? Justin: He's made the Super Bowl and he's an MVP of the actual NFL. Jake: And he looked terrible in the Super Bowl. Justin: Have you ever watched the Jets play a Super Bowl? Because I haven't. Jake: Well I've seen it on TV. Really? Not that old. Really? No, I've watched the replays. Justin: Right. Like, you know, 50 years ago. Jake: Yeah, I don't want to lose a Super Bowl. I want to win a Super Bowl. Justin: I don't want to lose a Super Bowl either, but you know what? I wouldn't mind watching one with my team in it. Yeah. Regardless of what happened. Jake: This year it's in Miami. Justin: I'm ready to go. All right. What should we do here? We've got two thirds. Right? It's because our second round picks are gone. They're Sam Donald. That's fine. That's fine. So you have two thirds. I'll take Sam. Let's talk about these two thirds. Let's say in the first we picked our pass rusher. What are we doing here in the third? We got two third round picks. Let's just, we're not allowed to play tradesies. So let's just pick these as they are. Jake: I'm not gonna pick people. No, no, no, position. It's too far down. We don't do that. We do pick color. Justin: We're not that good at this. No, we're not. Jake: We're not draftniks. So you say edge is off the table. Justin: Well, it's not. No, you can pick two of them. I'm just saying I think we pick one in the first. I think we're picking a defensive lineman to rush the quarterback. Jake: If no one trades for us, we're picking one of those three. One of those three dudes is coming our way. Yeah. I mean, if they're not whoever's left. Justin: If the quarterback gets picked, one of the two. Then one of the two. I think it's between Allen and Bosa. And Bosa. Whichever one the Niners don't pick. Right. Or whoever trades the Niners. Jake: I agree. I think one of those guys comes. That leaves us with the- It'd be fun to have a Josh Allen sacking Josh Allen. I thought Allen on Allen would be funny. Bosa just like from a t-shirt from a shirt and I can also play the Chargers this year. So that would be fun Do most on both sides on both sides? Yeah I Think then third you just have to start going Yeah Justin: It's too early to go for big fatties. I think the third we have two thirds one is
36:02 Justin: The is our own pick And it's pick number 68, right? So i'm gonna pick a corner. Okay, I think there's still like valid corners In the 60s because you're still like You know, you're not you're in the third round But you're not like in the in the compensatory like those compensatory picks at the end of the third round, right hundreds You're still in the like mid 60s where okay, that's top 75 talent right there, right? So I would I think you can pick a corner that could step in. Jake: God, we just keep picking corners though. Justin: You got to. I think corners are the thing. You got to just keep picking them until you get the guys that work in your system. You just have, we need- Jake: I'd probably go corner, I'd then probably go wide receiver. Justin: So the next pick in the third is later, it's 94. Jake: But we have not been good at picking wide receivers. Justin: Pretty piss poor at this situation. Jake: Yeah. Justin: I'm going to pick an offensive lineman there. This is where I'm going to pick an interior lineman that maybe played center in college and may project out as a guard in the NFL, but has some center. Right. Right. Like, all right. In case like maybe Jonathan Harrison steps up and he's good, but I don't know. been on team for a little while and hasn't. Yeah. So yeah. And Brian Winters also gets hurt every year. And assembly also is not a spring chicken. So I would start to. Draft some interior alignment here. Jake: I would go more, just more again. Or what? Oh, more linemen. More that line is we have Bell. You have the franchise behind the line. Yeah. The two. Yeah. Like these, this is all going to be win or loss on those two players. Justin: And Sam Yarnold, LaVion Bell. That's it. That is a lot of yards. Jake: Yep. I mean, we could talk about the wide receiver. I think a wide receiver, let's see, we're going in with Anunwa, Crowder. You're going with Robbie Anderson, Anunwa. Anderson. Crowder. And then Crap Shoot. And then Crap Shoot. Crap Shoot. And then. Complete Crap Shoot. And then you got tight ends. You got the two young, leggit, leggit and hernin. By the way, we worked out one of the tight ends. Justin: That's like one of the top tier guys. In the like it was like, why are the Jets even working this guy out? But that was like the if we trade back, we might actually pick a tight end in that first round. Really? Because why not? I pick on I would pick a defensive lineman and I'd stay right there at three because I know I'm gonna get an impact guy Yeah, but if I'm trading back to like wherever we said the Broncos like and If I get good like a like the first tight end is usually a very good player Yeah, and I know her name can play Yeah. Herndon's more of like a receiver.
39:00 Justin: That's an interesting, that's like a Gronk Hernandez without the murder situation. Oh, we forgot to, we picked up, we picked up Ty Montgomery. So he'll be back there too. I guess he can play receiver as well. Maybe they'll get these just I hope he's not number 88 though cuz that'll really bother me if he was three round three Jake: three No, it's just I just think it's all gotta be the line. I mean, I think we have enough on Justin: The wide receiver. I pick somebody but yeah, and corner is a real weapon. Yeah, he really was good. He was good He was good gonna be good He looks like Dustin Keller. Yeah, he looks like that kind of tight end. Jake: He's good. I think you need to protect him. And then Bell just changes everything because Bell is like. He makes everybody's life so much easier. But you got to have a line that can block together, that can hold for a bit. I mean, he's not a smash mouth guy. He needs some time. He picks the holes. Those holes got to, you know, show up. Justin: He's also a pass catcher. Yeah. So he's the safety valve for, everything. Yep. Where I see a lot of eight men bought eight men in the box. Yep guaranteed Which means hey Robbie go go man. Yeah, like no one's doubling you just go just go go You little stick monster you and Crowder is pretty shifty in the slot. Anyway back to the strap. So I was picking Corner and then offensive line and then we basically just jump right to the sixth round Or sorry, we have a fourth round pick it's 106 What do you think here I'm looking at all right, I've got us picking a defensive lineman a corner and offensive linemen. Jake: I wouldn't be happy. I wouldn't be unhappy there. If that if that was the first race. Yeah. Justin: What do you got going on here in the fourth? It's 106. So it's early in the fourth. Jake: I think you still got to go to those because I think the chances of a fourth working out. The same positions. You say big linemen, you win corner wide receiver. You just keep going. Wherever the holes are on the team, just start filling them. Yeah. I think I don't think I need tight ends. Justin: I don't think I need. I think I would look here in the fourth for one of those guys who could play special teams linebacker. I was thinking the special teams offensive player. OK, so like one of those special teamers that could run a punt return. punt and it's a lot of misdirection and with Belle in the backfield A lot of Vy's are going to be on Lady on Bell where he goes.
42:01 Justin: Yep. So you can play that really well with this. What we got. So I'd like us to try and find our next Brad Smith like that player. I want that versatile like dude who could again, kick returning is not as important as it. once was but we saw last year that it makes a difference if you have a good one. We return kicks for touchdowns. We flip field position. We had a real deals pump return. I mean, he was good. He's gone, but he was good and you could see it matters. So I would like to pick a guy that can do that for the next three, four years. And he's just a fourth round pick and maybe grows into a role on offense. Maybe not. Don't really care. But I think we need one of those dudes who can be a gunner who can Be responsible for catching the ball. It's not Trent cannon, right? Yeah, that's right Jake: But cannon was always good on special teams getting down there Justin: Yeah, but he was terrible on the offensive side of it couldn't he couldn't catch a ball and he would fumble a lot Yeah, you can't but that's still on the team Jake: Bad turn we have can we have cannon uh I'm sorry, Cannon, Bell, Justin: Time Montgomery. Jake: Time Montgomery and my boy, God, it's been such a long time. Crafted two years ago. I really like him. Oh, Eli Maguire. Maguire, yeah. Justin: Yeah, that's our back field. That's the back field, that's it. Jake: That's fine. That's not going anywhere. Justin: That's perfectly fine for me. All right, so you're picking just random? Jake: No, I'm just, I know I'm just keep going with this. I think you need to pick. Thank you. I like, although it didn't work for us the year we picked the two wide receivers. That was bad. But it worked for us when we picked the two safeties. Yes. So I like that when you double down on opposition and grab two. Justin: By the way, did you like that whole thing that came out about Honey Badger, Teron Matthew, last year? Jake: Mmm, what do you mean? Justin: So Taran Matthew was not was not re-signed by Arizona before last season. Yeah, that he went to Houston. Went to Houston, but before he went to Houston, there was a lot of rumblings that he should come to the Jets. Yeah, because Bowles was his guy. Like, they actually even had, I think, family ties. And apparently he came, he came, they they talked to him and Bowles looked him right in the eye and said, 26 is better than you. Jake: What? Justin: Marcus May is better than you. So if you're coming here, it's not to like start as a safety. Jake: Wow. Justin: Like Marcus May is better than you. Jake: Marcus May is gonna stay healthy. Justin: Oh, it's one year. Jake: Come on. All right.
45:04 Justin: Marcus is really good. He's good. You. you Moving on through Again, I think we should probably pick another offensive lineman Yeah, let's just bring as many old linemen into this camp as Jake: We can and let's not forget that. I mean Richie Anderson Robbie Anderson Robbie. There's a Richie Anderson, but Robbie Not drafted like that was that was a great that was a great, you know Scouting. Yeah, that was a good moment. I would kind of go. Let's see. So we talked so we're talking I would do edge I Think you're right to do kind of corner second second pick edge corner offensive line Wide receiver offensive line and then whatever some Some dude, that's kind of where I would go. I think we probably a lot of pay Justin: I think we probably end up with beating another I Think we're gonna double on that seventh. It'll either be another corner or another like just edge rusher like all right this guy's a fucking crazy athlete but he's not a good football player and let's see if we Jake: can do something. And honestly you need three starters out of this draft if you have six picks you need three stars you do three stars out of this draft Justin: you've done amazing. Yeah and considering the fact that in free agency they picked up a number of starters. Yeah. Right you picked up your starting running back you picked up a starting left guard you picked up a starting linebacker Right. That's three big ones. Am a missing like big time acquisitions that we did during free agency for starting players? I mean, I guess Crowder is sort of a starter. He's a starter. Oh, he'll start. I don't know if you like line up traditionally if he would start. Although I don't know what traditionally lining up is anymore. There's no fullback. I don't know what the actual like traditional package is. Jake: So that second pick is like the one that that that third round pick that those two thirds Those the 68 93 have to be real picks. I can't just be You have to walk away with Players are on the field Week one and they are the ones who gives a shit. It really this is like but you need depth because you need to have more of guys because guys get hurt and sometimes you get a guy in the Sixth or seventh round that work out, but it's so rare all the math just shows that's so rare that you know that That number three Start and you just want the third the two Justin: Buster screen is gone. Yeah, I know right and What was his name Perry Nickerson? Yeah, very niggers So we drafted him last year in the fourth ish right? We see our fourth round pick fifth even
48:04 Justin: He may be the starter this year. I mean he wasn't that much worse than Buster screen Jake: Who was the guy that they put in? he just couldn't cover at all. It was one of these one. We didn't even know his name. Justin: Oh, there was some dude like 38. And number 30 was so bad. Oh, but I think right now, like projected are starting corners are Tremaine Johnson. OK, let's hope that he can resurrect. So yes. And on the other side, I think it's what's his name? 27. His name is escaping me, but number 27. Dale Roberts. He's been on the team. Dale Roberts. Yeah. Right now for the corners. He's our starter. Jake: Jeremy Clark, Tremaine Johnson, Derek Jones, Arthur- Justin: Derek Jones, he's the shitty guy. He was the worst. Yeah. Jake: Perry Nicholson, Brian Poole, Dale Roberts. Justin: We signed Brian Poole. Jake: Right. it. and Rashad Robinson. He's terrible too. Yeah. Got it. That's shaky. Yeah, that's shaky. Tremaine should be. Justin: Tremaine should be good. Right. Should be. And then just when you look at it as a secondary though, Adams and May. you add them into the mix, you're like, okay, secondary is pretty decent. Yes. As an overall unit, it looks fine. Like, I don't see a reason why our defense shouldn't be excellent again this year. It's like they haven't been very good. And I see no reason why they haven't been. And they added one of the best linebackers in football. Yep. I mean, that dude is legit. There's no reason for them to not just stuff the fucking shit out of people. Yeah Jake: Mosley and Mosley and and Avery Williamson. I Justin: Mean that's a pretty good one.. Yeah, that's good. Yeah Adams behind him or playing S to them. I know fuck I know You Jake: a that you, I and We'll do some draft grades once it's over. I'll try to take some pictures while I'm down there. You'll be watching on the big screen. I will be watching. So we got one, two, three. Friday night and then four through seven on Saturday afternoon. Justin: I really just don't watch beyond the first round really oh, I do I often won't even Necessarily watch the Jets pick unless someone like texts me, me that we did something. Oh back into the first round right oh
51:07 Jake: I actually do feels awesome again and that's it. So until then, Justin and Jake saying, let's go Jets!
