For those who think this core can make a Stanley Cup run, sure.

I think we've seen the best they have to offer and it's been well short. The only time we had a run is when we were stocked with young guys in their entry deals, buoyed by a high draft pick.

The only chance we have at success is draft and develop and we've failed at that in this cycle.

The core isn't the issue, IMO. I think it's the lack of sufficiently talented depth that continues to hinder the team. It shouldn't be this difficult to solidify the top 6, particularly down the middle.

And quite miserably I'd add. I think you were onto something when you brought up Marcel Comeau's departure as it relates to the poor draft history since.

Why Jets should explore all options with No. 8 pick
