bealeb319 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 We have Milliner and McDougle who need to prove they can stay healthy but in theory could be starters (I know theories count for nothing) Williams who was an undrafted free agent last year played very well when he was given that chance (no I don't think we should rely on him being an all pro) but surely he deserves a shot to show what he can do. I think realistically we would be alright signing Cromartie and then drafting another corner in round three or 4. my number is add 2 corners in this off season and get rid of Wilson... thoughts?

FidelioJet Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 gotta bring in two. At least one top flight starter. That's a bidding war they're going to have to win. Should be priority #1.. Get a corner first and then move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCarl40 Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Probably two. Need a top flight guy on the outside and another veteran on the outside. Walls, Williams, and the walking wounded can fill in the slot/nickle/dime responsibilities fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chirorob Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I wouldn't put ANY faith in McDougall or Milliner to play full seasons this year. I'd bring in 7 So when the first 5 get hurt be week 3, you still have 2 left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get rid of Wilson, move McDougle into slot coverage. Keep Williams and Milliner for depth. Sign Jackson, Cro and McCourty(McCourty might be too costly, if so get Moore). Resign Harris, Sign one OLB (Not sure who to go for here). Done on Defense for FA. Draft another CB and OLB. I'm not sold on Milliner ever being healthy and due to that he can be a backup until he can stay healthy and prove he is better than Jackson or Cro. I think McDougle will stay healthy and can excel in the slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to spend big in this department. Kareem Jackson, Perrish Cox, Cromartie, and we keep Adams and Milliner... McDougle could be odd man out. I am a believer in building through the draft, but on o-line and defensive backs we need some savvy veterans... And we have the money to spend.

prime21 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 The first call we make is to Maxwell's agent and get the job done. Let's grab Cro and lets get McCourty. I like Culliver too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetdawgg Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Two young veteran FA's as starters. Can't count on Delicate Dee this year. Achilles is not like an ACL at all. Draft one too. A mid rounder if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenseed4 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 As much as Cromartie makes sense (fills a need, knows the system, has skill), signing him at his age requires drafting an eventual replacement. Signing two youngish corners (Culliver, Cox, Skrine, etc.) frees up draft-day flexibility in an already weak CB class. If we draft a CB, we're looking at spending a pick in the first three rounds...I'd rather use those picks on other positions. I think the Jets brass agree, according to Pauline we'll be heavily targeting the CB and OLB position ( and target TWO guards) in free agency.

What do you want 55 $1M players? time for some quality I wasn't arguing not to get him, its the whole reason I have him listed He is the best FS on the market, he is going to get overpaid but you have to have a ceiling on how much you want to overpay. Thats what I'm talking about. If it just gets too costly you better be talking to Moore on the backend and keep him in the loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAD_Brooklyn Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Sign Revis and House at CB. Add Worild at OLB and sign Moore if McCourty price tag gets out of control. Anythin more would just be us being greedy. This site has a phone app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Troll Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I'd be good with Cro and then overpaying McCourty. Don't want to sign a corner to a huge FA contract so he can go all DRC/Brandon Carr/Nnamdi on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying I would want to sign any of these 3 guys for huge contracts but what's the point of having so much money and avoiding the best free agents at their positions. Ever sit there and say "dam I wish we had so and so". Well so and so is now available and we have the means of sitting down and potentially signing them.
