  • the Jets Week one starter will be right now, the way I'm looking at it, the Sam Donald.

  • But let me say this.

  • For the record, if I'm the New York Jets and I have any opportunity whatsoever to get my hands on the Shawn Watson, I would give up three first round picks.

  • I would give up Sam.

  • Donald, I would throw in a masseuse.

  • Ah, massage therapist, Uh, car service into perpetuity for I sliders, sliders, Mama, A new house.

  • You know what I'm saying?

  • Or or I make sure to give her access to the private jet so she could fly in on Sundays for games, whatever the hell he wants and I'd give it toe, I'd give it toe, figure it out, figure it out.

  • If you're the New York Jets, you go all all all the way in.

  • Because the Shawn Watson is a game changer.

  • He's a show stopper.

  • On top of it all, he's a model citizen who would be great for the New York market and folks in Gotham City with rally around that brother in a heartbeat, and you wouldn't have toe worry about the quarterback position for years to come got a buffer.

  • Your offensive line.

  • Make sure you protect this brother.

  • Can't put him on suicide watch.

  • But outside of that, you could build around this.

  • Dude, you do whatever it takes.

  • I just don't see them being able to do it.

  • And as a result, I think they're gonna be stuck with Sam.

  • Donald, That's where I'm at with it.

  • You know, I hear what you're saying.

  • Stephen A.

  • I actually think Miami is best positioned to get Shawn Watson like if they really want him.

  • If I was Houston, I would say because if Tua was in this draft, I would want him over.

  • Everyone but Trevor Lawrence.

  • So they have to wear their if, you know, if the Texans value to A, they could give them to a start with two and the number three pick in the draft.

  • And if I'm the Shawn Watson, I want Miami because usually you go.

  • If the team is drafting that high up, they stink.

  • But Miami got the number three pick through a trade, so they're actually quite good and poised to be even better.

  • I just think that the dolphins, if they want to show on our best situated to get him.

  • So where does that leave the Jets?

  • I understand why people would still have hope for Sam Donald.

  • I would move on where I the Jets.

  • It wouldn't be an easy choice, but I would do it.

  • And I think there's a guy in this draft whose stock has fallen because of a couple of games during a weird kind of college football season.

  • But at one point, it really wasn't clear that it's Trevor Lawrence one and then everyone else 10, 11 and 12.

  • It was one in one A.

  • That was Justin Fields and I'm If I'm the Jets and I'm looking at this team, I'm not thinking we're about ready to win.

  • I'm thinking we need a total rebuild.

  • If I could move Sam Donald and get some draft capital back, even if I don't get to Shawn Watson, if I can trade down from the number two spot and get stuff back, including all the other draft capital I have, I can walk away with Justin Fields and a million draft picks on top of the million draft picks I have.

  • That's a rebuild.

  • I think Fields has a chance to be the second most special quarterback in this draft, and there was a time not long ago where we were wondering out loud, Could he be the most special?

  • That's who I target.

  • If I were the Jets, all I must say is anybody but Sam Donald.

  • Because as somebody who's covered this Jets team as a beat writer as a national writer, I have watched quarterbacks come and go, and this organization just seems to completely gut careers.

  • I don't know.

  • They cannot develop cubes.

  • So I'm with Max on getting a young Q B.

  • Whether exact Wilson, whether it's Justin Fields.

  • For me, the key issue is for Robert Saleh, first time head coach for Joe Douglas.

  • New to the GM spot find.

  • Find the Q B in this draft that you believe in and go all in and try to get him.

  • Yes, is the Shawn Watson the better option?

  • Of course he is, But this does the show wants I want to play for the Jets.

  • I don't believe he does, because all the there are a lot of other situations that are a lot, um, more further along than the Jets.

  • As far as being a winning franchise.

  • So for the Jets hit, Reset, I think, Adam gays like I I think they ruined Sam for the fans to like Any time this kid messes up, Fanjul, get him out of here.

  • I've seen enough, and I think Sam could use a reset.

  • He needs to go somewhere where he could be in a good organization and whether sit he needs.

  • He needs a good coach, and he just needs time to step back and not have to be the guy right away.

  • Learn from somebody, right?

  • So for the Jets, I think don't just pick by.

  • I've seen them take some crazy picks, like decide who you want.

  • You believe it because this q B spot you will lose your job overhaul, you pick.

  • So whether it's Justin Field, Zach Wilson, pick one of them and ride with it, you gotta have.

  • You gotta have a quarterback with wheels.

  • You just have to have that because in today's game, unless you're Tom Brady or a Drew Brees, you know what you have got To be mobile.

  • To survive and prosper in the National Football League, you just have to you get that's just a threat that you have to pose.

  • And I get where you're coming from.

  • About the New York.

  • Just their moral in there.

  • Pathetic way All understand that Robert Salas Definitely gonna be an upgrade.

  • But I got news for you.

  • He's the He might be the luckiest man in the world because after Adam Gatien ain't got nowhere to go but up.

  • Ain't nowhere to go by and you can't be worse.

  • Anything, anything will do anything anything would be anything would be some kind of improvement.

  • But in the end, what it comes down to is this If it were Trevor Lawrence, you know who your quarterback is going to be.

  • Even though I like Justin Fields.

  • Ah, lot, I really, really do.

  • And I've heard good things about Zach Wilson.

  • The reality is, is that you can't draft one of those guys and automatically pencil them in as the starting quarterback for your franchise in year one without any kind of security blanket whatsoever.

  • The Jets have too many problems, can believe, so as a result of that, if they go that route, well, you know what?

  • We're just gonna draft a quarterback, and that's what we're going with because we ain't gonna get a shot of the show and watch and stuff like that.

  • The problem with that is that you're putting them.

  • You're putting their careers on watch because they're gonna get ruined because they before they even started based on what you said, Kim believe they have a history of not being able to develop quarterbacks.

  • And all of a sudden, your first.

  • You know, this guy comes in from Day one.

  • He's the starter.

  • Hell, no.

  • Sam Donald's been sacrificed this much.

  • Keep sacrificing.
