Just another inept move by the Jets I did. Many others did as well. I said it over and over and over. Some said what you quoted, but signing Wilk over Snacks was not a universally held opinion here.

That trade I am 100% on board with. You can only give a select few players big money contracts, and Sheldon just is not a guy I take a 50 million dollar risk with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another inept move by the Jets Jet fans made those claims, not the front office. The mistake the front office made was penny pinching for a player they should have secured . Also, Snacks did the wise thing for himself. The Jets play a 34 meaning constant double teams and wear and tear on his body, while the Giants play a 43, with a run stuffing NT and a penetrating DT next to him. It also helps that you have JPP and Vernon outside . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A true NT is a premium position and when you have that player you don't give it up . This type of player makes everyone better, because he keeps the OGs and OC off the inside linebackers and because he demands a double team, he allows the DEs in the 43 scheme and the OLBers in the 34 to get after the QB. Mike Pennell doesn't have the stamina to play the position on a down to down basis but is a perfect complimentary player . Him and Simon are a better combination than him and Mclendon who's more like Wilkerson and Williams . There's a difference between Warren Sapp and Bogger Mcfarland and both players played inside at DT. Good point. McClendon is a gapper & can't hold up inside if he's stood up. Bills have a very good veteran Oline, and Eric Wood is a stud center. Our LBs had their hands full because the Bills Oline were creating nice cut back lanes for the RBs to gain momentum. That's why Tolbert looked so good, he's a f*cking load when he's rolling, at that point the LBs & Safeties are bull riders hanging on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScarletKnight89 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 He didnt play up to his cap number in week 1 but he wasn't terrible in the game. He deflected a pass in the red zone that Taylor threw and he actually played the run pretty well. I know they got torched by McCoy but Wilk did his job... He's paid to be better though I agree.

I don't think the plans included Wilkerson once the team drafted Williams, but Someone's off the field and then on the field attitude became a problem .I think because of this, the 2 players the Jets wanted to keep are gone and the one they didn't will probably be gone after this season .

rangerous Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 7 hours ago, Maxman said: Glenn I agree that Wilk needs to play better. And this contract is looking terrible. But my point right now is your comment on the unhealthy obsession Manish has. It is like borderline stalking at this point. This tweet right after the game, I can never remember a reporter going after a defensive lineman like this before. maybe maneesh wants to get jammed in a locker like serby. he's right. anyone who watched the game would know that wilk was non existent. on the other hand it is pretty difficult to see how he was blocked. it's also way too late to turn back the clock. obviously giving wilk such a hage contract was foolish, especially since it meant letting snacks walk. but once this die was cast there was just about no chance they would be able to re-sign shelly. and shelly's off field behavior made the decision much easier. so now mac is backing and filling. at least he got something.

In a 43 defense, the NT position is a Premium position along with the 2 DEs unless you're Playing the Tampa 2 . In the 34 the NT position is a premium position but the DEs are not . Their job is too tie up blockers and give the OLBers the freedom to get the QB . It's fine to have 1 special DE like Williams in the 34 because that player can always move inside next to the NT at the 3T defensive tackle position in the 43 to assist with the Pass rush . Why does the Steelers always have edge rushers and the Jets never do ? A 34 OLBer should be able to play DE in the 43 and that type of player is a premium position player . We have a collection of 3T defensive tackles who don't protect anyone and will never be able to hunt mobile QBs or any QB who can manipulate the pocket .

whodeawhodat Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 9 hours ago, Bleedin Green said: Regardless of the outcome, Manish's opinion on this topic is 100% completely meaningless. Wilk can quite deservedly get trashed for his play, but years of personal vendettas are not suddenly justified in that process. The last thing Mehta should get is the slightest bit of endorsement for his lunacy. Getting rid of Richardson was still the right decision, regardless of what they do with Wilk. Every concern that comes with Mo also exists with Richardson, plus more. Anyone thinking Mo not earning his big fat contract is reason to give one to Richardson must not be paying attention. Richardson being gone should have no impact on what the Jets decide to do with Mo next offseason, just as the opposite was very much true when they dealt Sheldon. maybe we can trade mo for demario davis? oh... wait... how bout trade him for Jeremy Kerly? ****!!!
