Does anyone still have issues with how Joe Douglas has repaired the OL?

I don't think anyone has any issues with the strategy, after the years of misery OL has to be among this teams biggest priorities.

The results are still up in the air though. Need to see some of these major moves pan out, and what happens this offseason when it comes to long term moves

It’s Week 18.  The results are not up in the air.  This OL played well down the stretch and the depth pieces that JD was criticized for signing played a big part in the improved run game.

Greg Van Roten was starting in the beginning of the season, so yes.

Just think how good we'll be when Cam Clark is available.

Not all the moves are gonna work out. Not a huge JD defender at this stage but he invested a ton in the OL and it's improved heavily even without last year's #11 pick (who could catapult it even higher if he's healthy) in just a couple of seasons. Even random bits like trading for LDT have helped quite a bit. Got to give him credit for it so far, but I'd like to see it improve to the point of being top 10 in the league next year. Certainly seems achievable with some moves in the offseason.

Random thoughts:

I thought we were toast after Becton went down

The AVT pick looks like absolute gold

Fant and McGovern took massive steps forward from their performances last year

Michael Carter, Mike LaFleur, and Zach Wilson > Dowell, Gase, Sam, and Gore

Douglas deserves a ton of credit for the results. I’m actually very pleased, and they looked pretty bad the first couple games of the season. Make sure you post those year end OL PFF grades on your fridge

Trade Ty Johnson for an 8th and draft someone that can catch a pass or run for 5 yards

Only 12 players in the league have more drops than Ty Johnson (5).

Alvin Kamara and Saquon Barkley are the only RBs with more drops (6).

This obviously doesn’t belong in the OL thread but I am not going to pass on the chance to excrement on Ty Johnson.

This was the most competent the Jets offense has looked in a long time. The first few weeks were rough for several reasons. New system, OL struggled a bit, QB was very inconsistent, receivers were inconsistent, etc.

But basically from Week 4 on, the offense was pretty competent, and it was competent with 4 different quarterbacks, and a rotating cast of wide receivers, no tight ends, and one of the worst RB groups on paper in the NFL. For that to happen, you need good OL play, and you need good coaching.

Assuming it's still not a finished product, I have no specific issue.

OT and C - not really a need but you can never have too many Gords
Orlando Brown

Ryan Jensen


Who else is a FA?

Washington GM Martin Mayhew on Brandon Scherff: "I think our fans should know we've made every effort to get something done." Added that they offered to make him the highest-paid guard in NFL last year.

I'd love to add Scherff but not for that much money
