Many supporters soon questioned this decision at number fifteen overall and demanded Douglas’s dismissal. Where was the need on the squad for someone like Will McDonald with Bryce Huff and Jermaine Johnson? For Jets fans at the time, this was a legitimate question. It would be a serious understatement to say that those fans weren’t correct about McDonald. In his debut year, McDonald participated in 15 games.
