Maxman Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Someone check my math here but I see: Cap # 167,371,487 Under the cap by… 26,278,320 Brandon Marshall 7,500,000 Marcus Gilchrist 4,625,000 Eric Decker 5,750,000 Khiry Robinson 946,875 Under the cap by… 45,100,195 Buster Skrine 3,500,000 Buster is the only one I am not sure is getting cut. But if they cut him they are 48 million under the cap. Good job Macc making sure the contracts in the past are easy to get out of. Sure there is some dead money but at least they have flexibility. http://overthecap.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hael Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I don't mind paying for a young (eg 25 and under) player who is a stud, and has the ability to be a long time Jet, with the right attitude. Frontload the contract, so that he's cheap later in his career and there you have it. It's clear we won't get many of those types of players before we run out of cap room though (think maybe 2 or 3) and our team will still be terrible, but at least there will be some youth. What would be absolutely terrible, is if we start shelving out big money for older players (like Revis in 2015). The only veterans we want on this roster, are those we get in the bargain mill, that have the right attitudes (like Harris) and can mentor the younger players.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the Jets are not tanking for 5 years. We are be cutting the dead weight and rebuilding. Those holes will be filled through both FA and the draft. To think that they are not going to be active is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hael Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 35-50 million goes quickly, when you lack a LT, a QB, a CB1 a S1, a WR1 and a pass rush specialist. Those are the marquee positions we have to fill... An average NFL starter alone at QB is ~18million per year, and thats NOT the ones you get in free agency (who will demand a higher price). Average starting LT ~ 8 million (again look higher for what you get in FA). Average starting pass rusher ~ 8 million Average starting CB 1 ~ 9 million. So being wildly optimistic that you pay average league wide salaries in FA, and just getting your average starting caliber player at those 4 positions, you are looking at 43 million dollars in cap space.

Well the thing is, when you go 5 and 11 it is kind of an easy decision. The old we finished last with you, we can finish last without you kind of thing. I am just glad that we aren't terrible and in cap hell. That is normally the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a fan of "fraud agency," but some spending can be OK when 2 or 3 of the franchise cornerstones are already in place. the Jets are a team whose only goal should be 2-14 for 2017.

I expect a fool like Maccagnan to wait, since he's never extended anybody with a year left under contract or team control, and he then either pays millions more per year than he had to (e.g. Winters), or he loses the player outright because he's too expensive after waiting (e.g. Harrison).
