Bleedin Green 80,004 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 If the price is right, this would definitely be a good way to go. I can't imagine his demands could be too high at this point, and the possibility of having a chance to compete would have to be a bit of an attraction to him. If nothing else, showing some interest could also give Fitz a good smack upside the head, if he were still the team's preferred choice. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paradis 13,326 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 He's a reasonable #2 to back up Geno for 3-4 million. Would prefer McCown but whatevs at this point 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post slats 111,124 Posted July 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 27, 2016 Foles was due $10.75M in salary and requested his release? I don't know what he expects to earn. But in the game of QB musical chairs, there are now two QBs, one chair, and Maccagnan is operating the music. 12 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rangers9 1,951 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 So wouldn't Foles then be getting all of his money due from the Rams. Not sure what kind of a contract he would want from the Jets. Maybe the Jets have been all along waiting for this. But if they've decided not to negotiate with Fitz they should act fast and sign him. He has all of training camp to learn the offense. I like Fitz over Foles and Foles over Geno. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Warfish 30,631 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 No thank you. If we're xxxxxxx, er, "investing" in 2016 with Geno Smith at the helm, we may as well go all-in and have Petty be the #2. Geno falters or gets hurt, we get to "see what we have" in Petty with "talent around him". On a team full of unknowns and kids, why bother with a known-nobody "veteran backup"? We have Petty, if we need to go to the #2, we're already screwed, may as well play Petty. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
