Not sure I'm sold on a receiver even with our second first round pick... Coates basically has as much chance to succeed as Richards - a high 2nd round pick... look at receiver prospects all around the league - either moved on from their draft team - Bailey, Chambers... - or plateaued much lower than anticipated - Ianuzzi, Giguere... I'd take a chance on Carter or Picton in the 3rd round... keep building depth at OL, DT and S with the first three picks - would even be tempted to go Woodson/Wright at #6

Game 81 : 2 Games Left @ Blue Jackets
Floyd replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
You know who would help this team win a Stanley Cup? Mike Richards. -
I remember reading this one... there were a couple things that stuck out: - Enstrom drops from a #1 to a 3rd pairing when the Jets move to the Central - Since then his best numbers were in a season where he only played 60 games - and the Jets - again - had a great record without him. Enstrom's 2016-2017 WAR will be his worst. He is 3rd pairing at best now - but Jets are still playing him against the oppositions top players... Its not Enstrom or Stafford per se, its playing vets in roles that they were good at three years ago. Melchiori and Nogier might be AHLers but they slow down the play and can clear the front of the net.
-
Don't worry, I'm not blaming Stafford for everything... this team had multiple problems.
-
Jets might be the only organization that can make its fans have mixed feelings about a five game winning streak. 14-3-3 without Enstrom this season... just sayin' Wonder if Jets would be a playoff team if they had admitted that Stafford was a plug back in October... instead of giving him top 6 ice time.

I looked for a gif of Peter Nygaard playing the bongos as a witty response... And, um, don't ever google 'Peter Nygaard bongos'. Just don't.

Ssssoooo disappointed.
-
So everyone potentially in the mix for first round (excluding the top NFL prospects)...? OL - Bladek, Spooner, Schram, Woods, Roy DL - Ekakitie, Luke, Boateng, McGough DB - Woodson, Wright REC - Vandevoort, Behar LB - Mulumba, Herdman FB - Gosselin RB - Augustine
-
Interesting draft this year... After NFL interest is known, first three OL off the board could really be Bladek, Spooner, Schram Can see Woods dropping maybe to 8-9th
-
Ask Maurice... these guys should have been called up as soon as the Jets were eliminated.
-
Pretty well thought out draft... I like Ferguson's articles. Good argument for Gray at first overall. I still think Buono picks Vandervoort Don't see the Boateng pick if Ekakitie, Mulumba and Behar are still on the board. If Herdman's still there at 15, I think he's a bomber.

Around The League Off Season Discussion

Well there you go... Maybe he'll go on a CFL tour now to see which team wants to sign him. -
Yeah, its better to give Thorburn a nice shout out instead of seeing if the two players we traded our captain to get are worth anything... Lets call up Peluso, he seems like a pretty decent guy.
-
Ah, yes... back when it seemed like things were about to change for the better... lots of hope.

Around The League Off Season Discussion
Floyd replied to Bomber_fanaddict's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Stamps release Tory Harrison... Anyone want to bet that Huff ends up with Messam/Bell as his backfield...? -
Dont teams usually have one 3-tech nose tackle like Brown and one bull-rushing DT like Cummings? Butcher I can see being a good NT, Jake Thomas seems a bit small
-
I was looking at 2008 until now... the 'rebuild era'... I'd say this roster is in better shape than 2011... and no way that team gets to the GC if Bombers were in the west
-
How many teams do this? Every other call up on non-playoff teams seems to jump right into the action, no? This is Connor's second go-round - he's all to familiar with the pressbox.
-
Compared to the last ten years, I agree... to compete for GC, I'm not sure Secondary looks great, receivers are solid but nothing flashy Not totally sold on Thomas/Tennant rotating at NT... Need Butcher to step up If Harris gets injured, this team is in a bit of a bind. Not sure that we're ready to go with a 'futures' pick...
-
Debating whether Rod Rust was better or worse than Etch and whether turnovers are actually giveaways or takeaways... this feels like the opening scene of Reservoir Dogs... 'Toby... Toby Chu?... Wong? Toby Wong...'
-
In a rational world, where the Jets are actually looking at prospects and not just trying to get Maurice an extension... we'd be watching ESW Laine-Little-Petan Connor-Lowry-Armia Copp-Roslovic-Dano
-
A bit surprised, this roster just looks 'okay' Need more competition at MLB... Not thrilled about our backup receivers - Mayo was better than any of those guys Was signing Corvey Irvin and Sam Hurl really worth letting Bass walk... Big questions this year...
-
Ted Wyman @Ted_Wyman #NHLJets lines today: Ehlers-Scheifele-Wheeler Perreault-Little-Laine Copp-Lowry-Armia Tanev-Petan-Thorburn Connor-Roslovic-Dano Would be interesting if Maurice swapped the entire fourth line
-
Why is everyone so good at tanking except the Jets.
-
Roslovic called up... likely gets a taste of how much harder it is to try and set up Thorburn than Connor... Assuming Petan will sit because yknow... Tanev's grit and Thorb's sand.
