I am happy we didn't move to the 2-spot. I don't know if I want us to be in that position to pick between Wilson or Fields and then going with Wilson while knowing how much of an impact a player like Fields can have in a Kyle offense.

This is what I've been thinking. Even after the hype I like fields over Wilson. It's crazy for the jets to just say it's Wilson and call it a day. I bet they're considering fields cause it's hard not to.

I dont think anyone here believes Wilson is absolutely better then Fields. Its just that this entire time hes been talked about as a sure lock to go to the Jets so he doesnt get discussed like Fields and Lance. Either way, if Jets go fields, Id be ecstatic to have Wilson and vice versa.

Didn't Steve Young already say the Jets had been talking to the family? He is media but I'd figure he's closer than anyone outside 0f the Jets org to the situation.

So what if Fields goes #2 overall? Do we pick Zach Wilson? Did he run the 40 BTW? Anybody know his time?

He didn't run a 40 at his pro day.

OK. Well he's fast. But not as fast as Fields obviously. Probably not as fast as Lance. It's not the most important factor. Throwing is and reading the field. But it would be interesting to see how he comes in. He's a pretty good athlete too buying time. He can throw so that's the big thing.

I can't say he's absolutely better either. I think Wilson/Fields/Lance all have some qualities to really like. But Lance just has to be behind by missing a year of football, the limited playing time and the lower division level. So it's Wilson/Fields I think. Whoever is available.
