It looks like Zach didn't impress the Jets reporter from The Athletic:  https://theathletic.com/3358264/2022/06/10/jets-zach-wilson-risers-fallers/?source=dailyemail&campaign=601983

Faller: Zach Wilson, quarterback

This is sure to evoke hysteria. There’s no reason to panic yet, though. It’s only June. Nothing that happens now really matters. Training camp will be the true tell of whether Wilson is ready to take a second-year jump. But, if we’re being honest, Wilson hasn’t been overly impressive through the four media-open OTAs.

The 22-year-old has struggled with his accuracy. His decision-making is questionable at best, and it has led to interceptions (one on Wednesday, two on Thursday) and near interceptions. He’s thrown several passes that, in a game, would have led to the near decapitation of his receivers.

It hasn’t all been bad. Wilson threw an impressive deep ball to D.J. Montgomery, who beat rookie Sauce Gardner, on Wednesday. He connected with Corey Davis for a red-zone touchdown on Thursday. His best pass of any media-open OTA came on a laser deep crosser to Garrett Wilson, who dropped it as he hit the ground.

You just hoped to see a little bit more conviction, decisiveness and average baseline to this point.

It’s important to note that these OTAs are about learning and the media aren’t in the meeting rooms. The Jets aren’t worried and see signs there Wilson is progressing. He’s trusting his reads much more this year and when he misses a throw, he knows exactly what happened and where he should have gone — that wasn’t the case in 2021.

The Jets also have so many new pieces on offense, they’re only running eight first-team, 11-on-11 drills per practice, and the scripted seven-on-seven periods aren’t real football. That’s likely contributing to some of Wilson’s struggles, too.

A strong string of minicamp practices will ease any concerns brought forth by OTAs.

 

Poor Jets fans. The two positives in that article for Wilson come with negatives for their shiny top 10 pick rookies.... Sauce got burned and Garrett Wilson can't catch. Bums.

He must have really struggled if Connor Hughes is saying it. He is kind of a Jets homer. He can usually always find a way to put a positive spin on everything.

How can the bolded parts NOT be of concern to Jets fans? I understand Gardner and Wilson are rookies but in low contact practices, they should show off their skills. Didnt Gardner say something to the effect of "I am the best player in the draft"?

Disgusting. He needs to set an example for kids. Josh Allen dating his high school sweetheart and not running around chasing skirts. 

Apparently mono runs in the "franchise qbs" DNA at the NY Jets facilities.

Thought experiment (yeah, it's the off-season).  Looking at the picture of Wilson and his ex-girlfriend.  Those two kids somehow get married and have children.  Jesus.  The teeth.

I have a new level of respect for Zach Wilson. He does have a little dawg in him. I want my QB to be an alpha. Wilson is out here making alpha moves. 

Yea he definitely is the second best QB in the AFC East
