I like Montour so far. Great offensive instincts

He looks like a faster version of Jake Gardiner, hopefully minus the defensive miscues. I like what I see.

If they lose 15 of their last 20, he's going to have to rethink that statement.

I dunno. I believe him when he says that. JB is cautious, patient, and methodical. I think he’d be given one more non-playoff flop of a season after this one.

Time to buy low on Laine has come and gone. Time to sell high on Skinner has come and gone as well

Then he better get him some horses for next year. I've preached patience myself, but this team is unwatchable.

Re-sign Skinner

Trade 55 for a forward

Keep re-tooling the defense

Try and draft a stud with your top 10 pick

Jets would have never traded Laine I was being sarcastic. That pointless drought will be soon forgotten though if he keeps producing like this and carries the momentum into the playoffs. Career year for Skinner, this is the best he’s ever going to look. I hope it’s closer to $8M AAV then $9M.

Just got a text from source with knowledge. Evidently Popko, Rossi and Muehlman got poop canned for recovered email exchanges calling Botts a lazy ass bum.

Looking at the standings


We could easily drop to 7th last

Mix in the lottery luck and were picking top 10


Good year to pick top 10

Could be well north of 9. Skinner holds most of the cards.

Picking 12th right now.

They keep on this path, they may actually pick top 5. They're only 8 points out of the top 5.
