Plus Hill was on a Super Bowl team two years ago and Jeffries has never even made the playoffs

Are people missing the part when I say the Jets deservedly got bashed for drafting Stephen Hill?

 

[ScarletKnight89]

No.

But not because Robbie Anderson and Quincy Enunwa are the answers for us.

Marshall is costing us 7.5 mil and can save us that much if cut . It's going to cost over 10 mil to sign Jeffery per year . Thanks but no .

I am fully afraid to spend my money on Alshon Jeffery.  He has not played a full season since when?  He was suspended last year.  There have been numerous questions about his conditioning and lack of dedication.  He is a talented player, but the money can better be allocated in a more useful, safer manner.  Also, I want ascending talents.  I think we have seen the peak of Jeffery, though he could put up some serious numbers if he ends up in the right place.

That's why we draft Mike Williams. Rookie contract for 5 years, plus much better than both of these guys.

Actually none, because I plan on keeping the kids, and either Marshall or Decker and drafting another receiver .  I would prefer to spend what little cap money I have on guys like Minter who can replace David Harris, Jefferson who would bring a knowledge of the scheme  and an OT like Kalil or Beachum

I know you hate Petty, but did you actually watch the games?  I tend to think the team sucked more than stopped trying, but if anybody quit it was Brandon Marshall. 

I would have said Darrelle Revis personally

This is so against my usual anti FA agenda.  But if u can get Alshon and pay him what Marshall is getting...cutting Marshall in the process...I would say do it.  Younger and oddly underrated due to recent injury and a bad team.  He could be a very cost effective talent.  U can't develop a QB without an OL or WRS with experience.  This is the most hypocritical post I'll make in 2017. BuT I think the value could be there.

Would rather go after a Left Tackle like Okung or Whitworth on a 2-3 year deal than throw what would have to be 6 and 75 at Alshon

[Charlie Brown]

I say yes and then the Jets can hire me to throw the ball to him...

Is there anyone else you would spend our 1st pick on  ?

Jeffery 10x better than BM instantly improves this offense.

I find it ironic that the Jets got bashed for drafting Stephen Hill ahead of him (deservedly so) but Jeffery hasn't really distinguished himself either. IN other words, he didn't reach the ceiling that was predicted for him

He did in 2013, he's only 27.  If you're trying to win in 2017 there's not many WRs available better than him.

You spelled Mike Williams wrong.

Yes, I would seriously consider Hooker from OSU, depending on the medicals going forward. I think a ball hawking safety would be great for the defense. Would pass on the QB's, RB's, and any linemen at #6. If we did happen to trade down, possibly an OT. I am looking at getting    an immediate impact player at this spot, and I think Williams and/or Hooker would do that.

Such a dumb idea to cut Marshall

 

He's the only veteran who played hard last season -- great message to send to cut the one guy on the roster who actually tried after week 3

I didn't say to cut him, I said I have mixed feelings about getting rid of BM. He is a solid WR who can go up and get the ball and he fights of DB's preventing picks at times. I know he has his drops but he has worked hard as a Jet and  at the end of the season he started to taper off.

Not sure about Whitworth - 35 yes old

The Jets allowed themselves to approach and experience Brick's retirement without a successor left tackle.

Whitworth is still functional at 35, although my guess is that he falls off pretty quick.  Okung for 2-3 would be a good deal as they look for mid-round LT developmental guys-players with the footwork and demeanor but maybe not the body.

Just about everyone seems to think this would be a bad move.  So the Jets will probably make it.
 

We need too much at too many other positions to even consider signing an over priced reciever

Every player in the market will be over price . If there any good ..  only around here y'all seem to think players don't know there worth especially with the cap keep going up .. 

Experts think Kenny Stills gonna 10 mill per a year .. is he worth it ? Cause I would give that money to Jefferey first .

Or we continue to be a bottom dweller and wonder why we have  low level talents at most positions on our team .. 

Free Agency is the reason the Giants rebuilt so fast . The overpaid quite a few guys . 

Good thing Macc  has a aggressive nature  when it comes to FA
