I told you time and again that Mara, Tisch, Gettleman and Shurmur collectively DO NOT HAVE A CLUE on how to fix the GMEN problems! PERIOD!
This 2019 NFL DRAFT was suppose to be a huge turnaround for the franchise with 2 picks in the first 17 selections of the 1st round. And the GMEN draft turned into a disaster from the GMEN 6th pick on.
Does anybody in their right mind believe any of the other 31 NFL Franchises had this clown Daniel Jones ranked that high or higher on their big boards? You got to be kidding me! Daniel Jones could have been had with the GMEN 3rd rounder #95 and that still would have been too high. Gettleman had his choice of Josh Allen or Ed Oliver at #6 and he takes this clown. The pick was so RIDICULOUS it never got LIVE air time on ABC.
Then at pick #17 Gettleman had NO CHOICE but to take Clemson DT Dexter Lawrence. Gettleman actually wanted Rashan Gary or Christian Wilkins for that spot and was screwed by the Packers and Dolphins. I actually had Lawrence at 17 in my mock draft. Lawrence is the same type of player Harrison is, that Gettleman traded for a 2019 5th rounder.
The topper was the DeAndre Baker pick moving up 7 spots and giving up the GMEN 37th pick in addition to a 4th and 5th rounders. When! All Gettleman had to do was move up 2 or 3 spots and save a pick and still would have had a choice between multiple CBs in DeAndre Baker, Bryon Murphy and Greedy Williams.
The so called PROCESS is NOT working. PERIOD!!!!! When is Daniel Jones going to start for the GMEN?
This is history actually repeating itself. Remember? The year 1992 and the NFL Supplemental Draft and the GMEN took DUKE’s QB Dave Brown. Dan Reeves and George Young replaced the GREAT Phil Simms with Dave Brown. What a friggin joke! The same is happening now except the GMEN re replacing one stiff with another stiff.
This draft makes the 2018 Saquon Barkley pick look RIDICULOUS. Gettleman did not think Mayfield, Darnold, Allen, Jackson or Rosen were worthy of the overall # 2 pick in 2018. Yet! A year later Gettleman deems Daniel Jones worthy of the 6th overall pick a year later. A QB no one even knew existed until earlier this year.
P.S. To all the assholes of The Sports Media and Sports ANALYsts DO NOT critique this Daniel Jones pick with negativity. Remember! All of you assholes had this pick in your mock drafts, along with Dwayne Haskins. Now praise the GMEN pick everyday until Daniel Jones retires from the NFL.
