00:00They got to try to get this right. And there's going to be a real conversation, EJ, about
00:04whether the Jets as an organization can be trusted to develop a young quarterback. So from your
00:09perspective, are they in a better place to do that now than they were, let's say, five or 10 years
00:14ago? Or is that still the biggest red flag in this entire discussion when we're talking about
00:19the Jets selecting a quarterback? Can they be trusted to develop a young quarterback? Because
00:24from a lot of people, they're going to be like, look, we haven't seen it.
00:26Yeah, that's been all this conversation that, you know, Dante Moore or any quarterback that's
00:31in this draft, they should beg, beg, beg to not go to the New York Jets. And I challenge
00:35people to be like, find me a top pick that went to a great situation. I don't think Cam
00:40Ward walked into the 90s Cowboys when he went into the Titans. I don't think that Joe Burrow
00:45walked into the 80s 49ers when he arrived in Cincinnati. I mean, if you're drafted high,
00:50you're going to a bad team. So I don't quite really understand this idea that a quarterback
00:55should avoid bad organizations. There is no avoiding a bad organization if you're going
00:59to be drafted near the top of the NFL draft. I think with the Jets also, this is a lot
01:03different than when they drafted Sam Darnold and when they drafted Zach Wilson. Those guys
01:08came to teams where the comfort was completely, utterly bare. Where they came in, there were
01:13no receivers, there was no offensive line, there was no running game. Yes, the Jets were
01:17a terrible football team this year, but they actually have some of the foundational pieces
01:21you need to help support a young quarterback. You have a number one wide receiver in Gary
01:26Wilson. You have an offensive line that started all 17 games and has a lot of young talent
01:30guys that definitely look like they'll be long-term NFL starters.
