Yo.
How you feeling about your team Hako bro?
I mean, the record looks rough but what are somethings you are liking and what are some busts?
We're the youngest team in the NFL.
12 draft picks in this coming draft, with 4 currently inside the top 50 picks and 7-8 within the first 4 rounds. Projected to have around $100m in cap space this off season.
Some nice young pieces to build around in RB James Robinson, WR DJ Chark, WR LaViska Shenault, LB Myles Jack, DE Josh Allen, CB CJ Henderson, DT DaVon Hamilton etc.
Even though our record is shit, our rookies and 2nd year players (which account for over 1/3 of our roster) have gotten a shit load of playing time/experience this season.
Too soon to call anybody busts yet from this rookie class, but our #20 pick DE K'lavon Chaisson hasn't did jack shit this year. He was raw coming out of LSU and needs some time, but he hasn't really even flashed this year. Don't even notice him on the field most of the time, which isn't good. Pretty invisible so far.
All will depend on who we hire as our new GM this off season, and who he then decides to hire as the HC. Even though our GM just got fired, we're keeping the coaching staff in place until the end of the season. No guarantees they get fired, but with a new GM eventually coming into the building, I don't see how the majority of the coaching staff isn't let go. We need a full house clean and a new GM will typically want "his" guys in the building.
Finding that franchise QB will be top priority in this coming draft. It's likely we'll be picking in the top 2, so we should have our pick of any QB who isn't named Trevor Lawrence. No chance the Jets pass on him if he declares and I don't seen them winning 2 or more of their remaining games.
All in all, feeling pretty positive about the future, but that can all change of course. Especially if the new GM keeps this coaching staff in place.
