Draft note

by John Paulsen

Wilson is a surefire Week 1 starter and should enjoy a better environment than Sam Darnold did the last few years. Robert Saleh should offer more competency than Adam Gase and Mike LaFleur should solidify an offense after spending the last few seasons as Kyle Shanahan’s passing game coordinator in San Francisco. The receivers are also better. The Jets signed Corey Davis, who just had a breakout season with the Titans, and also added veteran Keelan Cole from the Jaguars. The Jets drafted Elijah Moore, who is drawing rave reviews during offseason activities. Jamison Crowder, Denzel Mims and Braxton Berrios return, so the Jets’ receiving corps is certainly deeper than last season. Wilson fared very well in my rookie quarterback model, posting top 11 projections in completion percentage, touchdown percentage, yards per attempt, interception percentage and projected rushing touchdowns. The model projects Wilson for 16.9 rushing yards per game, which should offer a nice floor.

Jets Beat: Team playing dangerous game with QB Zach Wilson

ESPN

Sep 27 · 12:38 PM EDT

The Jets are playing a dangerous game, and there's no way out. They opted not to sign a proven backup, putting their faith in Zach Wilson and the players around him to make it work.

Fantasy Impact:

The story pointed out the grisly totals over Wilson's first three NFL starts: 25 quarterback hits, 15 sacks, seven interceptions and a few body slams/sandwiches. At this rate, he won't make it to Halloween, let alone the end of the season. And if he survives the onslaught, he could develop bad habits and lose his pristine mechanics, the story all said. The story added Wilson didn't play like a confident quarterback, even though he said he hasn't lost his confidence. Wilson looked hesitant at times, not trusting his reads and holding the ball too long.

NYJ QB Zach Wilson - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Atlanta
Zach Wilson's numbers were the best of his young career last Sunday as the Jets won their first game of the season. He completed 62% of his passes for 297 yards and two touchdowns. He looked better in the pocket and was sacked only once after being sacked 15 times the first three weeks. We can expect games like this for Wilson who has talent, but he will still play like a rookie on certain weeks,

Wilson and the Jets head to London to take on Atlanta who is ranked 25th in aFPA to quarterbacks. Despite the favorable matchup, Wilson is still a work in progress and although he moved up to a QB2 status for Week 5, he is still not worthy of a roster spot.
