Which brings us to President Trump. Nearly six years ago to the day,
he tweeted about the Jets pulling out a meaningless 16-11 win over the Tennessee Titans to move to 3-11 on the season.
“The Jets should have let them score to get the number one draft pick, who will be really good,” Trump wrote at the time. “It will just never change for them!”
The Jets wound up with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, and they chose USC defensive lineman Leonard Williams. The No. 1 pick went to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who chose Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston over Oregon’s Marcus Mariota.
