NFL (since 2016)
"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Only those who follow US sports will like this. But it's pretty funny. I did LOL at the WNBA joke.

maybe the dull bastard has hired him to improve his own mental state, going by some of those unhinged press conferences towards the end of the season.

call me crazy, but i think coaching the team better and winning games by playing better might give then more of a winning mentality.

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Not sure if it's two or three games. They seem to be punishing your boys with that early part of the schedule. A really tough start

Re: NFL (since 2016)
It leaves us with 36 year-old Tyrod Taylor as back up to Justin Fields, although Tyrod is reliable. So we might need to pick up a QB in free agency, or trade for one (using late-round picks) before the deadline next season.

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Jordan Travis, the Jets QB drafted in 2024, has retired after failing to recover from the horrible leg injury he suffered in his last game for Florida State.
Big talent, and such a shame. Also a sharp reminder that your college or NFL career can end in an instant.
He took a calculated risk by drafting him in round 5 of last year's draft, despite his injury. In Jets fashion, it has backfired! But I'd say he was worth the risk. We'd only have wasted that pick on a shit kicker (or maybe a shitkicker) anyway.
Feel for that kid, as he was more talented and harder working than most QBs we've had in recent years.

He looks like a very interesting player indeed.
I can think of a few ways he could make a career in the NFL.

ESPN. Or Disney Sports is a joke now. Unless the WNBA is your thing.?
Then they have you covered

“Tough, physical, violent, aggressive and resilient.”
Aaron Glenn telling journalists about the characteristics he looked for in every draft pick.
Definitely went for a bunch of youngsters who look like they’ll punch and run their way through brick walls. No whining, cotton wool Zach Wilson’s this time around.

Re: NFL (since 2016)
Not the NFL draft but Minnesota Golden Gophers add Purdue offensive lineman Jaden Ball through transfer portal
The 6-5, 300-pounder also had offers from Ohio State and Syracuse.
The new Fridge.

Yeah, sounds spot on. I’ll take that risk with a 4th rounder. His acceleration/speed is something else. At least this version of the jets took the (calculated) risky pick with a late rounder and not a top-ten choice like so many times in the past.
Elsewhere, there were some really good solid receivers and linemen in the late rounds. Quite a few teams drafted excellent guards, which is what you should do.
