sirlancemehlot Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Trading picks for players was dumb when Tannenbaum was doing it. What's changed? That name is not allowed on any thread I read. And I'm reading this one. You've been put on notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I'm okay trading for a CB. No thanks to DJax though. I'm really not okay with trading for a CB. This FA market was rich at the position. There were high priced options, and moderately priced options. Idzik skipped out or missed out on all of them. All players who cost nothing but money. To come out of that empty handed, then turn around and trade a pick (or picks, or player, or both) for a CB they then have to pay is, well, inexcusable.

I agree but if the cost is a 4th rounder or something like that I'm okay with it. I'd rather they just take a guy in the mid rounds for depth. I grow tired of first round CBs.

SouthernJet Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Folks forget this is way he was trained,,build thru draft, make good trades sending draft picks for guys like marshaawn Lynch/harvin, and THEN when team is ready for legit SB run, THEN you spend money in FA like Sealltle did in 2013 and this year (jared Allen??) etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure the JETS missed out on the CB market. Who did they have as their first preference. The JETS were only interested in Vernon Davis and he signed with his team. Other than that the JETS have not been interested in any other CB. The DRC look in was only on the 4th day of FA and that too the deal they offered him showed they did not have much confidence in his ability to play consistently at a top level. Its not like the JETS liked 4, 5 guys and missed out on all of them. I won't be surprised if the JETS mentality right from the start has been if we get this guy or that guy good OR else we see a few guys available in draft that would be available when we pick and would fit the team perfectly.

Sperm Edwards Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Trading picks for players was dumb when Tannenbaum was doing it. What's changed? 1. Tannenbaum did it for players who needed new contracts. 2. Tannenbaum traded away way too many picks. 3. Tannenbaum wasn't left with 7+ draft picks after trading away said pick(s). 4. I want it to be better when the current guy does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except they were mostly busts. Lynch is one of the only ones that did work out for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't be surprised if the JETS mentality right from the start has been if we get this guy or that guy good OR else we see a few guys available in draft that would be available when we pick and would fit the team perfectly. They were obviously interested in both Davis and DRC. They were rumored to be interested in Munnerlyn, who signed a very reasonable 3 year, $11.5M contract. Two former Seahawks, Browner and Thurmond, signed one year deals. Any one of those guys would've been a welcome addition, and likely a starter. Whether the Jets showed interest or not isn't the point, they completely missed a talent rich pool of talent at a position of need, much of that talent which could've been had at very reasonable prices.

I think they only legitimately missed on Davis, and got hoodwinked in the process. I'm not sure why they didn't go after Verner. DRC was clearly an afterthought that they didn't really want (1yr/$6 mil offer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRC was clearly an afterthought that they didn't really want (1yr/$6 mil offer). Most reports are that he fits a Tampa 2 system better and is not suited for the type of man-coverage schemes Rex runs. Who knows, as outside of the time we played them this year I never heard his name, but it would explain us not being interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were interested in DRC not sure if they would wait so long to call him up. Again dont think if the JETS were ever interested in Browner and Thurmond.
