Let’s take a walk down memory road to see how bad the Jets are at drafting QBs before anyone wants to downplay probably losing out on Lawrence in the draft.
The Jets traded 2 draft picks and 3 players to Cleveland to take Sanchez #5 overall and actually had considerable success despite for 2 of the 4 seasons Sanchez started, despite him throwing more INT than TD and fumbling 43 times.
He appeared in 2 career games (1 start) and was incredibly ineffective. He was cut in 2013.
(I witnessed him throw his only career TD against AZ after Sanchez was benched for throwing 3 INT)
Geno showed very few glimpses of potential but ended with just 28 TD compared to 36 INT and 17 fumbles in just 33 games
His time with the Jets ended when he got his jaw broken by a teammate
He was never viewed as a potential franchise QB, and his play confirmed that as the Jets won just 1 of 10 games he played in (7 starts).
After 3 seasons the Jets cut Petty.
He struggled mightily in preseason games and was traded to Oakland for a 7th round pick after 2 seasons. He then failed in the AAF (0 TD, 3 INT in 3 G) and is now moving on to baseball.

We're all loving the return of the UCL but in terms of football folklore, a fixture going down in Chile tonight may just be the most important match of the week.
It's a relegation playoff between CD Universidad & Colo Colo it has all of Chile holding it's breath. (THREAD)
It's all because the away side is Colo Colo, the country's biggest, most successful club, with 32 titles & the only Chilean Copa Libertadores trophy.
They have never even come close to relegation & the sheer thought of going down is causing all kinds of scenes across the country
From the ritualistic Grandma's doing their bit to convince the football sprits to keep them in the top
To the 5,000 fans outside who awaited the team bus outside the training ground for one last motivational
And of course the club's Barra Bravas with their own take on motivation

Bus carrying Colo-Colo team to Talca took off some time ago. This was filmed by forward Javier Parraguez. Chillz, literal chillz...

Colo Colo - Chile's most successful club - are one game away from the first relegation in their 96-year history. Their ultras today put up a banner outside the club's stadium: "They win or we kill them." pic.twitter.com/4alj2M6BCi
