DaBallhawk Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 As mentioned last night, Hoyer has two teams interested in him for opportunity to start: #Texans and #Jets. Others would be for backup role. — Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) March 8, 2015 Terms for Herremans: 1 year deal worth up to $3.5 M, source confirmed. — Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) March 8, 2015 Can somebody please explain to these beat writers that the correct term is "agent" and not "source"...

joewilly12 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Adam Caplan and Josina Anderson reporting that Hoyer is choosing between Texans and Jets because he wants the chance to start. Hoyer will not beat out Geno Smith but he's good to have on the bench if Geno suffers another melt down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Adam Caplan and Josina Anderson reporting that Hoyer is choosing between Texans and Jets because he wants the chance to start. Josina Anderson @JosinaAnderson 10m10 minutes ago Source tells me as of now "the #Texans & the #Jets r @ the forefront of [brian Hoyer's] mind bc they give him the best opportunity to start" that's seriously depressing, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F.Chowds Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Rich Cimini @RichCimini 4m4 minutes ago Interesting game of QB musical chairs could develop between Jets, Texans and Hoyer (UFA), Mallett (UFA) and Fitzpatrick. #nyj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Lonelyhearts Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 It's amazing how little teams learn from watching each other's offseasons on a year in, year out basis. Desperation rules, I guess. The problem is that you can't just up and start doing things the right way because billboards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Give me Buster Skrine over Maxwell or any other FA corner out there any day of the week. Perfect fit, terrific press corner, only 25, probably is gonna take half of what Maxwell will be making. Pair him up with Cary, pick up Ron Parker to play centerfield, line up Pryor in the box and then let's go... "In the Seahawks' Cover 1/Cover 3 system, Maxwell plays a lot of tight man and some off-man or zone. Generally, Seahawks corners cover tightly and close quickly. After dividing Pro Football Focus' yards-after-catch allowed by charted targets, Seahawks corners finished 13th (Tharold Simon), 14th (Sherman) and 18th (Maxwell) in average per-target YAC." Maxwell also played the nickle a few times last year and his own in man coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBallhawk Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 Out of nowhere... If Texans get Hoyer over Jets I can see Fitzpatrick going to Jets.

Integrity28 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Belichick historically gives no ****s about draft position. Without exaggeration, he might have drafted Mallet in the third because he liked the way he held the ball on field goals. Exactly. You know when Daballsquawk tells you. 'Don't be stupid' he is about to follow it up by setting a new precedent for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity28 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I completely understand that we have a huge issue at the CB position, but I think Maxwell is being secretly overrated here. 10-12 million for him might be expensive. No question. Especially when you can probably pay Skrine, Culliver, House all modest deals to all come hear and upgrade the entire unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Let's hope Hoyer chooses the Texans. ESPN's Josina Anderson reports the 49ers and Vikings have expressed interest in free agent Brian Hoyer. Hoyer wants to go somewhere he'd have a chance to compete for the starting job. It wouldn't happen in either Minnesota or San Francisco, but we highly doubt there are more than 1-2 teams willing to give Hoyer a shot as a starter. He proved last season as a turnover-prone "game manager" that he's a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaBallhawk Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 Mallett > Fitzpatrick > Hoyer But I'd take any of them over Geno. They're different types of QB's. I think it comes down to the system/scheme on offense, not who's the best out of that bunch. Because none of them are proven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Bringing in Hoyer is smart. It sends the message that we don't want to draft a QB, meaning teams don't need to get ahead of us for Mariotta. This doesn't preclude us from acquiring Foles from Philly either. Fill the QB room, let the coaches sort it out. Hoyer assumes same backup role other teams view him in if Foles wins job . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sully28 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 You mean the Ron Parker who played both CB and S and started for the Chiefs last year? He's pretty much a McCourty clone. You obviously don't know who Ron Parker is. Stop. Please just stop. I'll admit I didn't know who Parker was, all I knew was that site had him listed as a SS, I said this in a few of my posts about him. My only worry was that Bowles and Mac viewed Pryor as a FS, I think we can all agree Pryor is a better fit at SS. Now that I know he played CB, I'm fine with this.

SickJetFan Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I would take gamble on Jake from Tenn over hoyer.....hoyer sucks donkey balls! I'd like to see what Jake would do with decker, marshal, and amaro....we need a good slot and a 3rd down back. Keeley is OK but I don't think he is tough snuff 5o take the beating over the middle.

Jetlife33 Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I think Hoyer is the most conservative pick the Jets could make. 55% completion percentage and a TD:INT ratio of 1 to 1. Not sure I'm sold on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoyer would not beat out Geno. If we're going for mentor who can step in and play I'd go with the Harvard guy who can impart wisdom and will never, ever, be a distraction. Not to mention I'm sure Fitzpatrick still remembers Gaileys Offense like the back of his hand. Hoyer just got dumped by a team with Johnny 8 Ball and a QB who presided over a 1-15 team.
