Someone is salty!
A Zach Wilson, Utah, home-grown journalist wrote an open letter Tuesday asking the Jets to change their minds and not select former BYU star quarterback in the 2021 NFL draft this month .
“Please, Jets, give Zach Wilson a break,” the headline columnist has long said. Deseret News the writer Doug Robinson.
The piece responded to Jets negotiation Sam Darnold, “his last quarterback fails[ure]”As Robinson said, to the Panthers last week, while ensuring they select Wilson with the second overall selection on April 29th.
The New York Post published a headline: “The Jets now belong to Zach Wilson,” Robinson wrote. “Thank you for nothing.
“Look, the Jets are for the quarterbacks what Larry King was like to get married,” Robinson wrote. “View your log”.
He proceeded to withdraw the name of some of the quarterbacks, such as Darnold and Mark Sanchez, who have made their way through the revolving door of the Call Jets from Joe Namath.
But not even Broadway Joe could escape Robinson’s anger: “Namath is the most overrated football player in history,” he wrote.
“Where will Wilson be in a few years?” Robinson wrote, while suggesting to Wilson that he wanted to demand a trade, as Eli Manning did when he was selected by the Chargers in 2004. “Much depends on being selected by a team in which quarterbacks thrive. History shows that they are not the Jets. “
But there are signs that they may not be your own old planes. Joe Douglas, the team’s sophomore general manager, helped form a Super Bowl team in Philadelphia in 2018 and may be on his way to building a candidate in New York.
The coaching staff that went from 2 to 14 last season has also disappeared with well-regarded defensive guru Rob Saleh and his former San Francisco offensive teammate Mike LaFleur, who led the Jets until 2021.
They all fell in love with Wilson, who threw 33 touchdowns as a junior last fall, on his Pro Day last month.
And they seem to be ready to select Wilson, no matter what a Utah newspaper says.
