The Jets won’t draft an alternative to Pennington; they will either draft a replacement or go a different position. Just before last year, he signed a team record deal guaranteeing him 23 million. They will not draft a QB in the first round and keep him.
You mention that Chad won’t take them to the next level. What is the next level for the Jets? Winning a playoff game last year and almost beating the Steelers was pretty much reaching their peak level. They got a career year out of Martin that year, and he just had major surgery. At his age, there is no way is the RB of 2004 again. For next year, they have one good receiver, an injured QB, and an old, and now injured too, running back. They aren't going to the next level anytime soon, despite having a good defense. The AFC is too good.
