Jets Need David Bailey to Become a Superstar

The Jets drafted David Bailey second overall, and the expectation is enormous: he needs to become the kind of defensive superstar the franchise has rarely had. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether Bailey can develop into a true game-wrecker, why even strong Jets defenses have lacked that dominant presence, and how the shadow of Darrelle Revis still hangs over highly drafted defensive stars. The final stretch also features a Giants playoff disagreement, with Evan believing they can get in while Tiki sees an eight or nine-win team falling short. Plus, Pete Alonso’s absence gets measured against the Mets’ disastrous first-base production, MLB’s replay controversy comes under fire, and New York’s ugliest jerseys spark a debate over whether winning changes how fans remember uniforms.
