MrEpsYtown Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 So the meddling Jets owners are just going to go ahead and let their people draft the guy who wore the "F Trump" hat? Seems unlikely. I hope we get a shot at Rosen. 3

I’m sure they spoke to him in depth about it.

MrEpsYtown Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 Just now, Patriot Killa said: I really don’t think the Rosen incident is much of a big deal to the Johnsons tbh..it was a 20 year old kid flaunting his opinion around. I’m sure they spoke to him in depth about it. I'm just sayin. Woody Johnson is on his staff. They are neighbors in a rich little private community in Jersey. The Johnsons seem to meddle way too much and our President sometimes makes a big deal out of things that aren't a big deal. Seems like it won't work, but that's just me. 1
YoloinOhio Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 I was almost positive they never called the Giants. They’ve never done a trade between those two organizations in their history. 5

I think Rosen just moved up to number 2 on my QB wish list https://www.si.com/extra-mustard/2016/04/11/uclas-josh-rosen-wears-hat-special-message-donald-trump I know people don't want to talk politics, and I know it's long, but this is what Rosen said in an interview: "Well, I think it’s no secret that I’m not a large fan of Donald Trump — from a policy standpoint and from a human-being standpoint. I think it’s cowardly to run a campaign based on demagoguery and bigotry, and to incite fear so you can rally support for personal gain. He’s feeding off of racial tension and a lack of religious understanding, and a lack of sympathy and empathy for people who are different from him. I think it’s sad that he’s not even trying to understand important issues and propose legitimate policies to make the country a better place. It seems like he just wants to be president … so he can be president. There’s so much I don’t like. I don’t like his policy positions, and I really don’t like him making racially charged statements to people who don’t know better or understand what it’s like to come from poverty or different backgrounds. One of the reasons why I love the sport of football so much is because it’s exposed me to so many varying circumstances and all different types of people. And the same goes for college. That’s part of why after getting to college I’ve formed such strong political stances, and it’s cool going to a school like UCLA where we’re encouraged to dig into important issues and freely speak our minds. I mean, we both come from money. We’re both well-educated people — or are becoming well-educated — our parents are educated, and we are privileged. We can come to college and not really have to worry about finances. We can focus on school and football. Meanwhile, we have guys on the team who are sending every dime of money they have home to their families. College has really opened my eyes to those disparities. I just feel really strongly about this topic, because I believe there’s a level of ignorance in this country when it comes to empathizing with others, and that needs to change. And I’m literally willing to sit down and debate anyone in the country — anyone! — about Trump and the current state of our society. I welcome the opportunity to discuss this stuff further. I care about it. You probably shouldn’t have gotten me started, man. But, yeah, I think it’s safe to say that me and Donald Trump will not be getting matching Thunder Buddies T-shirts anytime soon." Edited March 26, 2018 by MrEpsYtown BTW when he says we both come from money he is referring to Conor McDermott who is on our team and was present for the interview 6 5

Even Jet fans on the forum have brought it up, it just seems like something that probably won’t be an issue going forward if he can be mature about things and learn to be a Pro QB. That’s what Mora his former coach was saying the other day..kid will have to learn how to be an actual pro and how his actions and words hold a lot more weight than he was previously aware of. But you definitely make a point. Edited March 25, 2018 by Patriot Killa 1

I have no issue with that, and good for him not being afraid to share his opinion. Well thought out and spot on if you ask me. However, I do have a huge issue with his "Bradford" like durability. 5

MC Hamburg Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 Definitely do not like bringing politics into football....Is he going to run for office or play Quarterback... I really would like a different QB in this draft anyway....Someone who is hungry to win and make money for his family...not sayin he won't be good but if things don't go his way would he quit?...Or answer the bell when the chips are down? Thoughts? 2
BuffAlone Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 Ship's getting weird. I cannot for the life of me figure out wth is going on in some people's minds. If they pass on Darnold or Rosen #1, I will feel so bad for the Dawg Pound, while horse laughing them at the same time.I hate to say it but they deserve a QB as much as we do. I just don't get signing these guys if they're ready to make a move at QB. Seriously, what gives?
Big Blitz Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 Simple criteria for finding an elite QB: Started at least 3 years in college. Won in college Accuracy Conservative world view and most likely votes R (they may vote D, but worldview 100 percent conservative). Rosen may just be a Never Trump R. Or a hardcore Bernie Bro. I have no idea. But his red flags continue to grow for me. I had not read that interview before. A lot of b.s. virtue signaling....saying a lot while saying absolutely nothing. Good luck with that Jets. 1 1 2 3
