jetscrazey Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Jayson Braddock @JaysonBraddock 4h4 hours ago I expect the Jets to put a full court press on Ryan Mallett tomorrow. Brandon Marshall & Eric Decker in the big apple. Tempting Let me start off by saying I watched the coaches film of Mallett's only start in Cleveland last season before he got injured. I came away quite impressed. He was decisive, read the defense well, and has a reasonably quick release in addition to his big arm. He throws the quick hitch as good as anyone, it was like telepathy between him and Andre Johnson. It was a very windy day so couldn't really judge his deep ball. Granted we only have 1 full game of film on this guy but he seems like the best chance to develop into a good starting QB from all the guys who will hit the open market. I think Maccagnan has his eye on him with his history in Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetscrazey Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 Why would Obrien let him go when Houston has no QB? sounds like Houston has made an offer but Mallett wants to test the open market....this might be his only chance to get paid. If Maccagnan shows him the cap space things could get interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I would personally like the move. Don't know how far Mallett has grown as a pro but he's got a bigger arm than Winston or Mariota. Has all the physical tools but known as a tool himself coming out of college. If he's grown up could be a home run. I also like the idea that if he became a stud, New England let him go. Finally some karma in the Jets favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 If so, I'd trust Maccagnan's familiarity with the player. Pretty sure we've discussed QB as a potential need around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTL Jet Fan Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Would have no problem with the move, if true. It would actually be a good fit with Marshal and Decker Mallet can make all the throws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouisvilleSlugger25 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Rather have him than some of the washed up vets that are available. Spent first few years under bellichik /brady, then spent last year under Obrien who I love. So you know he's been trained properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinstar Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Fine by me, he's 26 , has a live arm and some NFL seasoning sitting behind Brady . Him, Geno and Sean Mannion as a developmental prospect and I have no issue. He has what Geno Smith should have had, seasoning behind a Veteran .

Going to the Patriots and watching and learning from Brady is such an advantage and he is by far the best QB in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

win4ever Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 At a dirt cheap price? Sure. But besides having a big arm, this guy hasn't done much to prove he's anything but a backup in the league. I do like him better than some other retread options like Hoyer because I think the QB position is too valuable in the NFL to be signing these losers. If your good QB goes down, you aren't going anywhere with the backup, so may as well lose out instead of limping towards .500. Mallet atleast has some upside that you can dream on, so he's the type of backup that I would like, but I wouldn't bring him in with the money that warrants a QB competition, because he hasn't proven anything yet. Basically hasn't even played in like 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norm428 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Warming to Mallett. For all the people who want QB 's to learn on the bench until they get their shot (Aaron Rodgers for example), this could be an interesting guy. Gotta trust Macc on this one. He has more upside than the rest of the garbage out there. Locker is the only other guy I'd consider. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Rex Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I think Maccagnan has his eye on him with his history in Houston. Why wouldn't he? He is a possibility although slim. Foles, Fitzpatrick or Hoyer look to be the likely veteran QB's the Jets could get. If they get none of them I say draft Mariota and go from there. Second round OL, third round LB, fourth round (by ridding ourselves of Harvin) RB or FS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Harris Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Anyone not in favor of this move is simply being unrealistic - sure no one should be overjoyed but no reason to hate on it, there's literally no better option in FA. A backup QB with all the tools to be a starter, he's big question mark but there's nothing else out there like that. And this move doesn't preclude us from drafting Mariota or Winston. I dare you to come up with a better option in free agency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETSfaninNE Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Mallett definitely has the most upside and probably is the best FA QB this year mostly due to his upside. I think you know what you got in all the other QBs. Pair Mallett with a QB friendly OC like Gailey and give him some dynamic weapons like we now have and we could be looking at something special. If not for anything else this is the best case scenario minus getting Foles going into this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
