Jetfanincanada Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 If Idzik does not get some offensive weapons than Rex's defense is going to have to carry the team yet again. If Rex can go 8-8 next year with that schedule and no offense again he really should be given about 10% of the franchise and a lifetime coaching extension.

LionelRichie Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Only thing missing is Braylon Edwards. Now, he hasn't played in over year, so we'll probably need to offer him a few more than the vet mill to entice him out, but definitely seems worth it. I'd rather put cromartie at WR than bring Edwards back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Unlike the Riley Cooper re-signing, this one hurt. Really wanted J-Mac in Jet green. I guess the WR I want now through FA is Sanders? Boldin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurnleyJet Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 This isn't a problem, I not big on Maclin, he's coming off an ACL, never saw the whole Riley Cooper thing. This Draft is stacked lets draft a couple of wide outs. Jets x 2 W.R and a TE in this draft. Of think Manninghan may also be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetfanincanada Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Other than Sanchez being extended, this is the next biggest reason Tannenbum needed to be sh!tcanned. He brought in no offensive talent in all the time he was here. His philosophy was to only bring in defense, and it is very hard to get good offensive players from other teams without really overpaying. Hopefully Idzik understands this.

joewillie78 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 So far, all these FA's look at possible landing points, one being the JETS, and catching the ball from Smith, and RUN as fast as they can to their old team. Cooper and Maclinn want to catch the ball from the HIGHEST rated QB, not the LOWEST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 If it's about the name of the quarterback? Very few. If it's about playing time? Many. If it's about money? Many. If it's about winning games? About half the teams in the league. Are you overusing rhetorical questions? Probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewillie78 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 So you're saying Maclin is making career decisions based on what he assumes Eric Decker is going to do, or the Colts. Got it. No, the COLTS are making decisions based on the fact that they have the BEST young QB in the league. A QB that has taken a 1-15 team to 2 consecutive years of playoffs, has already engineered the 2nd greatest comeback in NFL playoff history, so they are picking an choosing who to team up with LUCK. They obviously know that with the best weapons available, that this is a team on the cusp of winning a championship, so they will only sign the TOP of the TOP, and for receivers this year, its DECKER. The Colts want no part of second tier guys like Maclin, they want the best. Maclins decision to go back to Philly, was based on the teams that WOULD show interest, one being the JETS, and he ran back to Nick Foles knowing that. By the way, INDY is my SB pick for 2015, and if CLEVELAND lands Manziel, and another weapon to pair with Gordon, then they are my longshot choice.

One year for 5.5,is not a big compromise to make while catching passes from one of the game's best young QBs, as you try to establish your career value. You don't get the numbers here.

I just asked if Maclin was making decisions based on what he assumed the Colts would do and you start your response with two ******* paragraphs about the Colts. Are you ******* kidding me? I have no idea why Maclin signed a one-year prove it deal with a team that is A) Aspires to be a running team (their defense doesn't always play along) and B ) Has two receivers ahead of him in the pecking order as of today. But if you're saying it's because he's afraid of playing with Geno Smith, well that is you in a nutshell and I should stop typi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stays where he is, and has Folkes throwing to him who had a remarkable year and is only going to get better. NO BRAINER. That's actually a fairly short-sighted viewpoint. If Maclin wanted to put up the biggest numbers, he'd be more apt to do it here or somewhere else where he'd be a focal point. Geno threw the ball more times per game than Foles. Maclin would have to fight for targets w/Jackson, Ertz, Cooper, McCoy and Celek. Maclin would be the clear-cut #1 receiver here and garner most of the targets. Despite your obvious distaste for Geno, you can't deny that he threw for over 3,000 yards in his rookie year and Maclin is now going to a team that has three other very good receivers and a QB who only threw for 2800 yards, albeit in 13 games.
