Is it an easy place to play? No, but remember that a lot of college QBs have performed under pressure in hostile road stadiums, playoff games, NY bowls, etc., and their psychological toughness has been proven. Wilson hadn't faced that level of pressure before and it turns out he struggled with it.
The problem with saying the Jets should not draft high for QBs is that a top shelf QB can turn your franchise into a contender for years to come. The reward is so high that you simply have to take that risk.
