dbatesman Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 The timing is weird, but Harvin effectively won them a Super Bowl game by himself. Being he's a UF alum, there's no doubt in my mind that he's a huge a$$hole (cc: JiF), but it's a worthy gamble, imo No, see, we have to keep all of our draft picks except when we have to go get some weapinz except when we have to keep all of our draft picks except Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0mShane Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 You've got to be ******* kidding me.

JetsFanInDenver Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 he Jets currently stand at 1 and 6 but this will allow them an opportunity to truly evaluate Geno Smith with some weapons around him. Eric Decker, Percy Harvin, Jeremy Kerley and Jace Amaro are all options in the passing game. This is the most stupid statement I have heard. If they were so worried about weapons around him why the hell didnt they draft a WR in the first two rounds. This makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
predator_05 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Percy frikken Harvin offensive talent they cant cover Decker and Harvin no way in hell rex and morningwood will ignore both of them and run the ball 600 times with ivory and bilal powell. 2 expensive mannequins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Yeah. Insane. This move makes Tanny look like a responsible steward of his draft picks. Idzik is a clown. This is a desperation move, clear as day. He wouldn't spend a penny when we had plenty of talent out there to secure. Wouldn't trade away 12 draft picks. Instead he blows the draft.. again. And now he trades away two solid picks for a guy no one wants and can't stay on the field. This is unbelievable to me. I guess its two less picks Idzik can miss on.

Jetlife33 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I'm honestly not upset with the deal especially if it ends up being a 3rd/4th rounder. It's just the fact they waited this long into the season with a1-6 record to get some talent opposite Decker. It'll be nice for next year if we keep him.

Um... there has literally not been a single source out there which has in any way suggested that the Jets are sending two picks. The only speculation that has been seen about the value of this conditional mid-round pick was Clayton's claims that it's a conditional 4th that could go as high as a 2nd.

Gastineau Lives Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I can't believe we traded for Desean Jackson. Oh no wait, which one am I thinking of? I always get them confused. Oh that's right, Jackson is the locker room cancer with the 10 mil contract that is actually productive this year. And didn't cost a pick. I'm still happy though. Should be fun, at least.

CrazyCarl40 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I really can't make heads or tails of this. Like it's good because weapons. But it's like bad because the Jets don't exactly use players as they should nor will it matter this season. I just don't know anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanInDenver Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Conditional 2nd to 4th. Seriously. 2nd pick means he contributed big time otherwise its a 4th which means we do not draft Saunders. So compensation wise its not too bad a move. Maybe JETS can be watchable again. But this is a sure fire way to finish 8-8. What that ensure is no playoffs and no Top 10 draft pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the mother of all head scratching moves! You (and the 50 or so other people who made nearly the same post) do realize that Harvin is allowed to play for the Jets beyond the 2014 season, right? Would it have somehow made it a better deal if the Jets had waited until February to make the same exact trade? I can get not being a fan of the deal, but their current record seems like a really silly reason. Not sure how doing absolutely nothing would have to be considered a better solution in this scenario. If you think Harvin isn't worth the trade that's understandable, but the record has no bearing on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SayNoToDMC Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 This is a big boy move. He is only 27 and a stud playmaker. Not a lot to complain about here. Other then it being 6 weeks to late? He was going to be a FA after this season anyway. I could care less about the draft pick after watching what we did with 11 this year. You also need a smart coaching staff to get him involved.

nj meadowlands Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 What's not to like here, though? We're not on the hook for any guaranteed money. We got a stud playmaker (and, as Damien Woody pointed out on twitter, we can at the very least now get a look at Geno with a few WEPPINZ around him) This could be seriously great, especially if we re-sign Kerley and pick up another wideout in FA. Decker, Harvin, ___, Kerley, Amaro, Ivory. No excuses for the QB at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
predator_05 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 hey, maybe idzik can grease up his old buddies at the clink to bring over a CB or 2. A guy like byron maxwell would be our best corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We recognize the tune, but the words have been altered... Idzik! Who is this man? What sort of devil is he? To have me caught in a trap...and choose to let me go freeeee...

If you think Harvin isn't worth the trade that's understandable, but the record has no bearing on that. Yes, actually. This season is lost, but this trade could help us win a meaningless game or two we'd otherwise lose this season, which will cost us precious draft position - as in, the difference between drafting a franchise QB vs another DT or CB.
