Part of the majority. Of course we want individual player growth but a bottom three finish is the main objective this year. We will bad no matter what. We are very young and have no transcendent talent. It will be fun to see how the young players progress but we have to ensure we pick no lower than four. The Jets won a meaningless game 17 and ended up with Zack Wilson instead of Trevor Lawerence. The 2025 NBA has a big two (Flagg and Bailey) and three - at this point - being the next tier and a chance to be all stars, with a drop off after five. Twenty wins will make me happy. Twenty five and not being a bottom three team will not.
Don’t necessarily disagree with your view, though I’m sure there will be.fans who are on board with you now who will complain about how miserable things go. I’d also point out that the NFL does not have a lottery. What the Jets did was organizational malpractice.
As a nets fan since mid 90s and current season ticket holder, i want every win we can get. It is much more fun than a loss. And the good news is that this draft stuff is good consolation for the losses, but still rooting for wins and believe that w development of ct and clowney and jw and more consistency from cj, we will actually be as good as last years team. And i would be happy w that.
The lottery is just that - a lottery and who knows what pick we will get and if flagg will be better than bailey or edgecomb etc etc.

You play to win the games....
Thanks for the comment. I know you can’t judge by social media, but we may be in the minority. For now.
