New York Jets shredded online for 'incompetence' after 'embarrassing' graphic emerges

Fans have been reacting to an image that has circulated online regarding the New York Jets and their recent performances in the NFL Draft. 

The New York Jets are one of a number of teams that are seen as punching bags in the NFL in the past couple of years, and they have the record to prove it. They haven’t had a winning season since the 2015 season, and even that was their only one in the past ten seasons.

There are a number of factors surrounding that, one of them being the constant cycle of head coaches that they go through, with incumbent Robert Saleh their 4th head coach in the past ten years, but a lot of it has to go down to the personnel that they bring in to play each year.

With their poor showing each season, the Jets usually get the benefit of picking high in the NFL Draft each year, but as one look at how the players perform when they get to the NFL will show, they haven’t exactly had a lot of success when it comes to turning what should be the best in college football into players capable of playing at an NFL level.

In a graphic posted by Jets fan and reporter Joe Caporoso on Twitter, he outlined what has happened to Jets draft picks going back to the 2015 Draft, what some would argue as the beginning of the downward spiral for the team after their performances since then, and up to the 2020 Draft.

To say it doesn’t make for pleasant viewing would be something of an understatement:

So judging by that, you could argue that they managed to get two players right in that era, Jamal Adams and Quinnen Williams, and even then one of them isn’t even on the team anymore, which just goes to show how bad things are
