As we continue the Team Needs series for the 2013 NFL Draft, we proceed to the team with the ninth overall pick; the New York Jets. After thinking we couldn’t get a bigger media circus than in 2011, Woody Johnson decided it would be a good idea to bring in Tim Tebow.

Mark Sanchez was the most hilariously terrible starting quarterback in the NFL in 2012. KSK is eminently grateful for Nacho’s repulsive play, as it made our jobs much, much easier. The buttfumble was a gift to humanity. But for the Jets and their fans, Sanchez is the greatest of all burdens: a huge deficiency at the sport’s most important position, who can not be removed without...
