Gas2No99 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 On Sweet Dee Miliner: On August 12, 2016 at 11:33 PM, Gas2No99 said: Agreed. He was there on both occasions and, while I don't accept it as an excuse, not having played in nearly 2 years WILL make you rusty. Many have already written off the guy, but I think he can STILL develop into a SOLID CB as long as - say it with me now - HE STAYS HEALTHY. For a depth CB - at this point in time - he MORE than fits the bill. He should be stealing the #2 CB, but we'll see how he, as the season itself, shall progress. On Jace Amaro: On August 12, 2016 at 11:08 PM, Gas2No99 said: Amaro FINALLY had the lights turn on and he's going to be a LEGIT THREAT to score MANY TDs in 2016. All the doubters and haters will eventually realize that #88 will KILL opposing defenses down the seam and/or turning up the sideline once they toss it to him on an OutRoute in the Flat. Gailey isn't as THICK-HEADED as some of the posters here and will definitely utilize Amaro for the MULTIPLE mismatches he will create on the field for opposing defenses. Mark it. So as it is JUST and PROPER for ANY RESPECTABLE MAN of CHARACTER to do: I RETRACT my foolish banter and REPENT for what I stupidly believed.

jetstream23 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 The talent was there with both guys, but the Jets have just lost patience. For Amaro it was consistency and some little things he just couldn't seem to prove like toughness, consistent hands, etc. For Milliner it was both health and proving that he was ever going to be more than a guy with elite "potential" but looked like a CB6 when actually playing.

slats Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I'm very shocked that they cut Milliner only because his contract is fully guaranteed. I wonder if there's offset language in there should he get picked up by another team. Amaro did not surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found this: http://www.jetnation.com/2013/07/29/dee-milliner-contract-breakdown-and-offset-issue-explained/#sthash.3cux9Six.dpbs He does have an offset so they will save money if he signs.

FidelioJet Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I was a big supporter of Amaro - I loved the pick at the team....Still expected him to make the team...and still expected him to have a good year. Mac/Bowles never liked him....and he clearly did nothing to prove them wrong. I hope he finds the toughness and builds a career, he'll get picked up and given a shot somewhere else.

Kevin L Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I wasn't as high on Amaro as I was on Milliner, but I thought Amaro was going to be a solid contributor and that Milliner was a sleeper pro bowl candidate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Troll Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 It was just a horrible pick. Don't trade the best corner in the league and then use the first of your two ones on another damn corner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are my sentiments as well. I think the Jets gave up too early on him, but I wish him well as he will be picked up by someone. Millner, I was never a big fan , but Bowles is a defensive coach and played DB I guess he felt Dee would never flourish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saul Goodman Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Idzik picks. All of them must be purged. Richardson and Pryor as the lone exceptions, though I think both are a little overrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYs Stepchild Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I really didn't like Amaro's demeanor in Thursday's game. He dropped that ball, and fumbled but the way he responded to those things meant more to me than the actual events. Whiney sour puss look and rubbing himself like he was hurt.

southparkcpa Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 IDzik is a result of Woody. Woody needs to turn this team over to a guy like MAC. IM OK with another year or so of rebuilding but jeez H, I've been waiting 45 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMagicRat Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Bummed about both. I thought Milliner was going to turn the corner (no pun intended) and be at least a decent reserve, but he couldn't put it together. Amaro just looked so soft out there. Completely lost his confidence. Maybe a change of scenery will do him good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronx Jet01 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Aren't both of these players 24 or younger ? We cut them for Bostick and Mcdougle? This could come to bite them in the ass.

RoadFan Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Do I get props for saying Dee should have been cut last August? And for calling Amaro a stonehanded knucklehead? Or do I have to listen to more "you don't cut a talented, first round pick that hasn't had enough of a chance to show what he can do" horse poo? Players should EARN a roster spot. Draft position is irrelevant after year two in the league. If not injury related, after year one. And that the Jets should have drafted Cooks over Pryor? Admittedly, Pryor is better than I thought... but Cooks still should have been the pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course if Smith ends up being successful, you just have to let us know of any other successful player that was drafted later than him, as that apparently somehow still proves you right.
