  • And here's Rich Cimini, who covers the New York Jets for us and for NFL Nation and rich people.

  • Ask me all the time and I just follow people like you who are actually working all of your sources and all of that.

  • What would you say?

  • What would you say right now is the likeliest scenario as Faras, who the Jets quarterback is weak one of next football season?

  • Well, greeny, I think that that's Will will make up an effort to try to acquire to Shawn Watson.

  • I think they'll be by one of probably 20 teams in that mix.

  • Ultimately, though, I just don't know if they're gonna talk over the massive amount of draft capital that is going to take to make that deal.

  • And so, if I had to bet right now, I think they gonna run it back with CIN Donald.

  • I think they won't drafted a quarterback at two, and I think they're going to try.

  • There seems to be enough enough positive vibe in the building of the new staff in there that they feel it could get something out of Donald that the previous staff did not, And uh so right Now I lean towards Donald, but, you know, they they're gonna get shoot their shot, you know, and give a shot at the dawn if they were to not get Watson because they didn't go all the way because someone significantly outbids them.

  • Where would that come from?

  • Where do you sense the hesitation?

  • Is that ownership?

  • Is that the general manager?

  • Is it the coaching staff who wouldn't want to do just go completely all in to get to Sean no matter what?

  • Well, it's general manager Joe Douglas.

  • You know he's got the final say on that.

  • And you know, Woody Johnson is back in the owner's chair right now.

  • I think would.

  • He's more of a splash guy, so I think we're up to him.

  • Ultimately, he does have to sign off on it.

  • Of course, he's the owner, but you know, Joe Douglas is a guy who just loves having that draft capital.

  • You know, they had to do to do go through a lot of suffering, as I'm sure you can empathize with to get those picks.

  • They traded Jamal Adams to get that extra two, those two extra twos, and so I think he's got a plan to build through the draft.

  • And so, you know, Are they gonna give up four number ones?

  • Get to Shawn Watson?

  • I'll believe it when I see it.

  • I think they'll, like I said, I think they're gonna be in the mix there.

  • Uh, maybe he would offer Donald.

  • But I just have a feeling he goes somewhere else.

  • And then finally, quickly rich.

  • You suggest that you think if they don't get Watson, that Sam Donald comes back, is the quarterback in that case, do they use the second pick, or do they trade it?

  • Well, I think they would want to trade that.

  • No doubt, I think they would want to trade down, Maybe with Atlanta or or Carolina looking for a quarterback.

  • I think the Jets would even look for MAWR draft capital because I just don't get the sense, and this is really early in the process.

  • But I just don't get the sense that they're in love with one of those quarterbacks like Wilson and Fields.

  • Now, If they had to Trevor Lawrence pick, then it's a no brainer.

  • They trade Donald.

  • They draft Lawrence, but I think there's enough of a gap between Lawrence and the next couple of quarterbacks that would prompt the Jets.

  • Thio put that pick for sale if they don't get to Shawn Watson, Thank you for watching ESPN on YouTube for live streaming sports and premium content.
