New York Jets Flight Connections 3/30/21

Good morning, GGN! I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. It looks like once again us Jets fans are much higher on one of our own players than the rest of the league is. After originally being thought to garner a 1st-round pick, it seems now that Joe Douglas and the Jets might not even be able to get a 3rd-round pick for the quarterback. Personally, I think some of this falls on Douglas himself, outpricing himself from getting a deal done in the early parts of free agency. Now, with many teams already having an answer at quarterback through FA or the draft, Darnold simply doesn’t have as much value. It’d also be a gigantic mistake in my opinion to pick up Darnold’s 5th-year option just to end up in a quarterback battle with whoever is selected at #2 overall. It’s an interesting situation that hopefully Douglas didn’t botch. With that, here are your links to the team today.
