The first merchandise on Louis Riddick’s to-do listing, if he had been employed as Jets basic supervisor, wasn’t going to be deciding Aaron Rodgers’ destiny.
“What’s interesting is that, 1 through 5, that offensive line last year should’ve been 20 times better than it was,” Riddick advised The Post. “I remember telling Jets people, ‘The first thing I would figure out is what is wrong with my offensive line that these guys collectively weren’t better than what their individual skill sets say they should’ve been.’ I would still be looking to make sure that is shored up.”
The GM job finally went to Darren Mougey over 14 different candidates who had been interviewed, together with Riddick. And now Mougey — who cut Rodgers and changed him with Justin Fields at quarterback — should work out whether or not to use the initial first-round choose of his tenure (No. 7 general) on more safety for Fields or on one other weapon within the passing sport.
“That’s above my pay grade,” Fields stated when requested for his choice Wednesday during his introductory information convention. “I’m going to roll with whatever they choose.”
