Zach Wilson is AWFUL, he's not worthy of being the No. 2 pick - Stephen A. | First Take 

See when Steven A speaks like this he earns my respect. He didn't put Zach Wilson down, he just told it how it was and still wished him well at the same time.

Steve hit Acho with the old uncle energy, "Nah nah nah, I said you" 😂😂😂😂

Molly trying to set SAS up with that Ho Ho Ho question

Im a bears fan, and im sooooooo thankful we had the opportunity to draft fields. Thank you Jets, and Niners.

As a Bears fan it's really weird on my ears to hear talking heads say another team should've taken the QB that we got. These are some strange times.

The Jets drafting Zach Wilson over Justin Fields has set them back two plus years. SMH

He’s not even worthy of being drafted at all

Zach Wilson was probably the coaches pet in high school and college, and never faced any real adversity never had to work for anything it was always handed to him

The infuriating part is this happens every single year. Clearly better players are constantly passed up on because some scout “has a hunch”. These teams deserve ALL the dysfunction and mediocrity that comes with such a dumb decision.

Now the jets feels how the bears felt drafting Trubitzky at number 2 instead of Mahomes

Justin Fields should be a Jet right now. He and Garrett Wilson should be the most electrifying young duo in the NFL right now and Justin should be putting up Jalen Hurts #'s I'm SICK TO MY STOMACH!

The only Wilson product I own is a basketball

I will forever not understand how GMs convince themselves of these random QBs over guys with tangible college success. And we might be seeing it again with Levis. Of course no one really knows who is going to be good or not - but Wilson smelled like a huge risk from day 1.

As a bears fan, I'm just glad to see another QB be the bust of the draft

" why do you enjoy saying ho ho all the time? 🤔🥴 " molly 🤣🤣😭

Ya boy Zach needs to be put in a 5 point restraint system after that performance cause he's gotta be on suicide watch.

man idk why but i still believe in him, idk if it’s because i always root for the underdog but i’ll also never forget his pro day and it really was one of the best showings a qb has ever had. his arm looked absolutely incredible. i know that means nothing if you can barely string a drive together in the nfl but i still think it’s possible he surprises people if he gets a shot again with i believe will happen. he needs to believe in himself before others believe in him.

Geno Smith somewhere doing the thriller laugh

Merry Christmas First Take Team, but I still miss Max Kellerman.

"Ho Ho Ho" 😆 🤣 😂 😹

The boo's the man got was well deserved at this point get him out of here

It's Interesting, the Jets reminds me of the Knicks, they can't seem to get a draft picks right to save they're lives, and both organizations suffer from their picks

Acho looking wild without the hair

Molly: ……..”yeah.” ………….*switches gears*

So true! Get him outta there!!!

When your right, your right

This is Todd McShay and ESPN fault for hyping this Kids up in the first place and the JETS dumb enough to take him. Now he’s a millionaire and will be doing sports talk in Utah 😂. No size and can’t evade pressure

Man I should’ve kept my receipts when I said he’d be trash.

What Zach Wilson has going for him is that he's young so at worst he can go to a team with a veteran quarterback, sit behind him and learn. Use Geno Smith as inspiration. When he gets a chance again he'll be more mature and much better...if he works hard.

As a Jets fan, its shocking that if you go in the Jets forum groups and read peoples comments theres still many defending Zach for the New England game/press conference and making unlimited excuses for him after the past 2 weeks while simultaneously applying unrealistic standards on Mike White and every other QB. The conversation was pretty one-sided and obvious before, but this should end the 'debate' on whether he's the Jets best QB or not

What team would even want Zach Wilson? Maybe the Texans? Even Davis Mills has been playing well lately tho

Guys who get bust with showing this much in college has work ethic issues.

I bet the Jets wished they had Daniel Jones

I refuse to believe that anyone picked Wilson and thought they had a winner

He's this eras Ryan Leaf

ESPN First Take

Y is this is a shock? The only highlight was his pro day 😂😂😇

Jets Saw this in the off season and knew this guy was bad and still went with him

Stephen a spittin

I'm so glad they didn't pick Justin!

Jets should try to get Garropolo, via trade or free agency.

Zach needs to leave NY and put in the work like Geno Smith. Bad play is one thing but this kids a locker room nightmare who does nothing to earn his teammates respect.

The management who decided that Wilson was worth the No 2 overall pick should get equal blame for this.

Small, mobile quarterbacks as a whole do not end up well in the NFL. They are often injured and when they start to lose a step, can no longer rush.

The QB position isn’t always about physical attributes. It’s about leadership skills and I don’t see Wilson having much of it. You can see his teammates aren’t ready to follow him.

I was always sceptical of Wilson being the #2 draft pick. I followed his career at BYU and he was a great QB for sure, but more like 2nd round caliber.

last year he didn't look this bad

Who brought a wilson jersey? Reget now? 😭😂😳

Zach gotten so awful 😖 Jets fans booing him with 37.5 QBR emotional damage

Feels good to be a bears fan

If I need Stephen A. Smith to tell me about Zack Wilson, then I need my eyesight checked.

Funny because if this was Kyler Murray Bart would go off on him.

problem is these 1st round picks aren't worth 30 million comtracts....they would of cut him last year if didn't commit to horrible contract

Jets drafted a QB that should’ve went in the 4th or 5th round 😂🤣💀

How Justin feilds wasn’t drafted by the jets blows my mind

Jets passing offense under Wilson was actually about average. Technically slightly above average. Rushing offense (also determined more by the O-line than the running back) was last in the NFL. In the past two games they averaged 60 yards rushing FOR THE ENTIRE GAME. I would also like to congratulate New Yorkers on their management skills: they pick a scape goat, sacrifice him, and just put in the next guy off the streets. This time it was Mike White with 2 interceptions, 0 touchdowns, QBR of 12.2, RTG of 47, 50% completion rate at only 5.2 yards/attempt. The problem is systemic. And I’m pretty sure I can trace it to management and even ownership (you think a NY owner cares more about winning or profitability?)

As a Jet fan I agree Zack is well he worse this team have been struggling in the QB position forever we got Defense but no offense it's a wreck as a fan again, am tired it's ridiculous!

Markelle Fultz? he had thoracic outlet syndrome, no comparison

Keyshawn is not afraid to say his truth. Utmost respect for the man. He's straight up on saying what he wants and what he doesn't want. But ..... Can he stand up???

I think Mac jones would have been better for them lol

molly makes me happy to be single

Coach Saleh’s loyalty to and belief in Wilson was noble at first, but now it’s just delusional. If he continues to sacrifice the success of his team for the feelings of his QB, he needs to follow Wilson out the door.

Feel for ZW - this is more about the dysfunction of the Nyets ownership. Is just silly ...clearly his selection was not a football decision but a speculative marketing one. What makes truly shameful is they made precisely the same mistake with Darnold. Woody Johnson gotta go and Kaepernick should backup or starting QB.

As a Pats fan Zach is the best player

These teams stay looking for a great white hope at QB. Never fails

The ONLY time youll hear espn mention a team other than the cowboys is to tear them down especially if its a new york team. Just like the knicks when they win espn says nothing.

Want to see flacco finish the season

Wilson keeps the jet’s relevant

Get him out, get him out, get him out. Dont wanna hear any other argument.

Zach looks so lost right now. Bard is right - sit him for the year, get a QB guy and a new OC, because putting him back in there could just ruin this guy if he's not there already.

I'd say Mike Glennon was worse but at least he had some decent games with the Raiders and Bucs.

Everyone wanna bring up Fields now...

Adam Gase is having the last laugh by winning those final games in 2020 to ruin the Jets chances of drafting Trevor Lawernce.

Jets should have just kept Darnold. They could have been a playoff team this year with Darnold and have a 1st round talent at another position.

Fields is obviously much better than Wilson…but as a Jet fan I truly wouldn’t want him either. I want a QB who I feel confident can make all types of throws and one that gives us a good chance on every 3rd down. I don’t think Fields is the answer for that either.

Stephen A often makes sense even though he frequently makes a fool out of himself while making his arguments. The main thing that stands in the way of his credibility (aside from general demagoguery) is his frequent race-baiting. It's not necessarily apparent here, but his track record of blatant race-baiting makes it hard to take anything he says seriously. I don't say that with any anger. I say that with discouragement and some sadness. But I'd agree that Zach Wilson has had adequate support and opportunities and has not made much of them.

Jets haven't had a good, homegrown QB in DECADES, but they have had a long list of mehs and nopes. Here's a thought: Maybe it's THEM and not the individuals they select.

Jets need to reach out to the ravens for Lamar Jackson

Once New Yorker fans start booing its over sir. Gaining that city's trust is a nightmare. But I don't blame them. That NY Jets Defense is a young relentless group. Hands down the should be a top team in the AFC. Zach can't throw, his confidence is gone.

Go jags!

Stephen A always talking low when it’s his turn to speak like dude SPEAK TF UP

Bart making excuses

josh Allen should of been a ny jet

Why don´t yall talk about the steelers?

I have been saying it. Jets made a huge mistake on Wilson.

Stop saying, Right

this guy just lost me the fantasy semi finals by not being able to throw

Zack Wilson $35 million guaranteed wow 😭

Justin fields man. It’s a great time to be a bears fan

He's talking about who they went out and got but look how bad the line has been 🤔

Once Kyler announces he’s leaving football for baseball… Cards will get Wilson… And Sean Payton will develop him into a winner…

Worst 3 top 5 qb of all time. 1.)Ryan Leaf 2.)Zach Wilson 3.)Jamarcus Russell

The kid just needs to sit behind a vet QB for a year or 2 and develop .Brady, Mahomes and Rodgers rode the bench before being a starter too...

I love seeing NY Jets QBs fail as a pats fan 😂😂😈😈😈

Amen@zach has to go elsewhere.. as a new yorker/jets fan stephen spoke valid points.. his career in ny is done ,finito ..he wont get a chance to prove otherwise , change of scenery needed

Why are they giving this guy excuses, Bart! Justin Fields does not get these excuses. If Fields had performed this way, he would have run out of New York in a quick minute. If Jalen Hurts had performed this way (He is practically in his second year), he would have been run out of town in a quick minute. I said it immediately after the 2020 draft and have been saying it ever since, and I will continue to say it. It was absolutely negligent for the Jets front office and coaching staff to pass over the second (Maybe first) best QB in the draft to pick "Who dat?" Zack Wilson from BYU. Delusional Jets fans swallowed whole the malarkey that the Jets coaches and front office was feeding them about "Who dat?" Wilson. Now the organization is paying the price for their idiotic decision. The Jets deserve everything they will get. On to the search for another Jets franchise quarterback. Ridiculous!

W fultz

Can't be the jags are good

Its time to let the hair piece go Bart

Which are the 4 after him in qbr lmao
