#Jets waived former 2nd-round WR Devin Smith (ACL). He deserved to hear that direct from team, not twitter. Very courteous & polite player.

Within a year of eachother.

If the Jets were willing to give up on him, probably not even worth kicking the tires
His whole game at OSU was the home run threat.

Nearly 21 YPC and 30 TDs on just 121 catches. If he wasn't going to regain that explosiveness, it's hard to see much of an NFL future for him. Hope his luck changes, and that he put away a nest egg as the 37h pick in the draft.
The jets have just butchered their 2nd and 3rd round picks lately

Not even bringing up their first rounders which are shaky enough.
Poor Kid, his career never got started

I remember reading about him when they drafted him.

Hard to pin this on them. All he's done is tear ACLs since being drafted.

The are no tires to kick. He may try to come back in spring 2018, if his knee holds up, but you gotta figure he's going to need a full year of recovery and rehab before anybody will even bring him in.

Well no, but Smith didn't exactly set the world on fire when he was healthy, if he ever was healthy.

All the Jets do is draft bad QBs in rounds 2-3.
