Ten Years Of Blogging – Now, What Did You Learn?

Joe Caporoso with what he has learned through ten years of blogging about his favorite but generally bad football team…

I have been blogging about the New York Jets for roughly ten years, most of them through this website. It has been an interesting journey that has yielded me a full time career in sports while also sucking away chunks of time to devour junk food on Twitter and get irrationally annoyed about silly things. I decided to take a step back and offer observations about being a fan who blogs about their favorite team. I spoke with Corey Griffin and Mike Dussault on the topic as well and their insight is included below.

NFL Draft – 2018 Top QB Prospects Tracking

Joe Malfa begins his season long tracking of the top projected quarterbacks in the 2017 NFL Draft

The writing is on the wall for the New York Jets in 2017. With one of the worst rosters in the league (arguably the worst), Gang Green is pretty much a lock to land a top-five pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.

The organization has been searching for a true franchise QB for decades, and it appears to be a good year to be bad.

The 2018 draft class is QB-heavy, with three top prospects that have scouts salivating: Sam Darnold (USC), Josh Rosen (UCLA) and Josh Allen (Wyoming).
