Wait til the new GM wants to trade both CBs to stockpile draft picks. Then Rex will really have to coach some defense. Wilson and Lankster next year.

Walls looks good yesterday.

[bitonti]

if it were my choice i'd punt on Qb until 2014 cause all these guys suck. go best available pass rusher at 9. I know people are gonna complain that they are neglecting the offense (again) but i'd rather they get a good QB than the best of a bad lot. the 2013 QB class is looking worse than Sanchez' year.

I thought that too. But Fitzpatrick is an awful passer. So the jury is out, I guess.

New GM = 2013 throwaway year. Do the hard things in 2013, point to 2014.

Sure. If he is stuck with Rex he might as well consider it a house money year and strip cap and roster. Start from Square One. I can't get my head around Woody's stupidity. It can't be all about some money, can it? I think I will sell my stock in J & J.

I actually think Woody'sbeen working on this with new GM (agreed in principal last 2 days IMHO).
Woody has ZERO to do with J&J by the way

That is the part i hate. Are we drafting for Rex's system when Rex might only be here one more year? Best available player, I guess.

Well, that's a relief. The J&J part, I mean. I heard someone on the radio imply that the GM is already in the bag, too. I actually would like them to do a little looking around. Remember when Leon Hess jumped on Rich Kotite?

[Jetsfan80]

the smart move is to trade both Cro and Revis and be competitive maybe in 2015 mon

Probably true but its not going to happen. Teams don't trade their TWO best players in one offseason. Keep Cro, trade Revis for 2014/2015 picks when he's proven he's healthy.

drafting that high, they should get a "scheme-diverse" player. I.e. JJ Watt would be a beast in any scheme. they get someone who can rush the passer, it doesn't matter what system he plays in... for 2014 Teddy Bridgewater is head and shoulders above all of these QB prospects.

Pretty much, though I think some of them might be worth a mid round flier to see if you can catch a steal (Bray, Jones, Nassib, Murray) someone like that.

Well, we only have Revis for 1 more year and Cromartie for 2 more. Revis cannot be franchise tagged and we will have no more rights to him than any other team after this season. Unless you're ok with signing up for another extension for Revis, averaging some $15-17M/year, that will make his cap number approach $20M (considering all the bonus money he's already collected that hasn't hit our cap yet). Oh yeah, that and he'll hold out 2 years into that new extension anyway.

Revis is probably the best player the Jets have ever had at any position. But no CB is worth that (unless the cap balloons up to like $200M, in which case it's only Woody's inherited money and there are few things I care less about).

Both are short-term solutions, unless you want to extend Cromartie a new contract when he turns 30 in 2015. Rebuilding teams with no QB (and no obvious one on the horizon) have no business paying exorbitant money for two short-term CBs while passing on the considerable draft picks we could get for each.

Ah. Then I don't really care who they trade. It would be nice if Revis could be a Jet for life, but I can understand how that doesn't make sense for the team. There was always a very real possibliity he got Bailey'd...

maybe still drunk from yesterdays disaster but i say we draft jarvis jones, glennon, or oline. if not glennon in the 1st landry jones, tyler wilson, tyler bray, or aaron murray if he declares in later rounds. i dont think i can stomach another year of sanchizzeee. if not pay matt moore next year and draft a qb in 2014

besides the fact that he's the team's best player (by far) the problem with trading Revis is he's at a low valuewise coming off this injury. they aren't gonna get a huge package for Revis right now.

Marc Ross IMHO.
Coincidence he dropped out of Panthers negotiations 2 days ago as #1 choice there? Coincidence Woody backpedaled on keeping Tanny as CapGuy at same time? Not to me.

If we can find a decent trade partner I think we will trade down.

That would be a pretty good choice.

I don't think you have to actually play Revis in order to show he's healthy and marketable. There's no question about his ability, talent and body of work. With today's sports medicine, a comprehensive exam and workout is all it should take to convince a team that he is sound.

what would you accept as a trade deal for Revis and who would you draft with those picks?

My opinion: there's no one they could get in this draft that would replace his value to the team.

[Stonehands]

I would draft Woods from USC with the number 9 pick and get a true number 1 receiver and then back it up with a pick of Zac Dysert or Landry Jones in round 2 for someone to throw to him.
