Spots 1-28 now set for 2020 NFL Draft
Yesterday was a crushing loss for the Texans, but at least they can comfort themselves with their future, and how they can use the 26th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft to make a good team better. Oh wait, they already traded that one to the Dolphins. Sorry guys, that was probably too soon. With [more]

Larry David told the Jets to draft Lamar Jackson
George Constanza got hired by the Yankees by going against his every instinct, and doing the opposite.

Joe Douglas: Jets excited to move forward with Jamal Adams

Jets “doing a deep dive” to find out how to better prevent injuries
The Jets have roster construction issues to sort out this offseason, but the construction of the roster doesn’t wind up meaning all that much if your players aren’t available to play.
