Locked On Jets

John B. spotlights the 2006 Jets draft haul with D'Brickashaw Ferguson and Nick Mangold anchoring the trenches, contrasting it with the notorious “Idzik 12” class of 2014 that left the Jets without long-term starters while passing on future stars like Davante Adams and Brandin Cooks. The episode digs into the consequences of chasing quarterbacks too soon, the risks of trading up, and the high cost of ignoring obvious needs in historically deep position classes.
