Mike135 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Well at least he had success at LSU. Welcome Adams and I apologize for the frustration you've just signed up for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be an interesting study to see how long it takes for a motivated, enthusiastic, talented rookie to realize he is in a sinking ship. One thing I want for sure, is for the Captain and the first mate to go down with it. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a big problem with the management of the team. I hope Bowles doesn't ruin this kid. He's done such a fine job with Richardson and Lee . Talented kid signs a contract with a team that has descended to the lowest point in all of professional sports: the thought of tanking a season and the apparent personnel decisions that would lead to it. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested to see how Adams handles a horrible season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah cause Bowles has so much to do with the immaturities of those two... We really need to have a conversation of what is on a HC or not when it comes to player conduct. There's only so much a coach can say and do to a grow man to make him behave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony MaC Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Happy this is resolved with no controversies like with the Chargers had with Bosa. Situations like that make our management and owners look great in comparison. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't talking about their off the field behavior. I was referring to their performance at their respective positions on the field. But now that you mention it, Bowles has shown us nothing that would lead anyone to believe that he can steer these young guys in the right direction. But that's a discussion for another thread. Bowles is playing Richardson out of position for the most part and it can be argued that Lee is not really built for ILB so Bowles is supposed to use his Arizona magic and use these players talents effectively. SO far... not impressed. Bowles defenses haven't been any good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As is he was doing okay in coverage from what I remember in that he was often in position to prevent a catch, but somehow dudes were making them anyway. The Richardson experiment was a bust though. 5 minutes ago, Dcat said: rookie holdouts are a rare thing since the CBA was signed. Bosa's dispute with SD stubborn owner was highly unusual. Yeah, Spanos is a penny pinching prick. Wouldn't budge to a top five pick because of that, wouldn't commit to San Diego for that reason either. And now... they play in a soccer stadium for three years in a market that doesn't care about them. Off the top of my head there are few owners I'd gladly take Johnson over and he's one of them.

Bruce Harper Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Maybe I'm nuts, but I think our defense has a chance to be pretty good. The offense is unlikely to be very good but if the D is strong and the O just a little bit better than expected why can't we be competitive, or at least in a bunch of games? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 guaranteed $22.3M, for the 6th pick, that rookie scale is creeping up again, how much does 1-5 get guaranteed, we will be back to $50 million busts again soon - I really thought they fixed that - too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I was wondering aloud how long it will take for this downtrodden franchise to ruin Adams' great enthusiasm and motivation. Kid comes in with everything we could ask for but Jets give him a surrounding team in the midst of a personnel dump leaving little talent on the field. My concern is that Adams gets demoralized within the next 2 years. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bowles gets blamed for the knuckle heads does he get credit for the the Big Cat, Lenord Williams? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rookie contracts are still significantly down from where they were, despite teams having a much larger pool of money to work with. The goal was never to have these kids playing for peanuts, and it shouldn't be, it was more a matter of fixing the problem that top picks had cap-crippling contracts and were out-earning the vast majority of NFL veterans. Top picks are basically getting contracts of low-to-mid tier starters (obviously varying based on the position), and quickly going down from there throughout the draft. With all of the mess Goodell has created over the years, this is one thing that I think has gone pretty well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way I want them to be competitive is if one of the young QBs lights it up. If neither one can start over Josh McCown, then tank it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
