KRL Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 He's going to the TV booth: http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/19073822/dallas-cowboys-qb-tony-romo-leaving-football-broadcast-career HOU expected to get him as their QB, that's why they basically "paid" CLE to take Osweiler. With Romo gone they only have Tom Savage at QB. I would assume they are going to be very desperate to get a QB in the draft. With Maccagnan's history with them he should have the ability to "abuse them" in a trade down. Let's hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinstar Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 It's funny how these QBs are good enough for every other team to want but don't have the proper value for the Jets at 6 and we have no QB . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crusher Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Good for Tony. I think one step to preventing the damaging effects of the game is to listen to your body rather than your ego. Guys body is begging for a break, glad he is smart enough to listen. Had a nice run for an undrafted guy from eastern Illinois. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashmouth Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Only problem with this theory is that Houston needs to win Now and not wait for a QB to develop and most of these QB's coming out are viewed as projects. They will try to make a trade or roll the dice with Cutler or Kap. Via trade they would go for Garoppolo or Cousins and I don't see any of this involving us in any way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I don't think the story is over just yet. Someone QB will get hurt or some good team (e.g. Broncos) will probably make a big offer to bring him in for 1 year. I'm sure his broadcasting job will have an out clause should he decide to return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnitedWhofans Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 As said, the team that really gets screwed by this are the Texans. As of now, they have the worst QB situation in the NFL, with the Jets and Browns slightly ahead. And now they will either have to give in to signing Cutler or Kaepernick or make a trade.

Im not sure because the broadcasting after playing gig seems to be the post career holy grail for most players. I mean even coaches like Gruden seems to prefer it over returning to coaching. Maybe it's just enough limelight and just enough money without the suffering to quench the drive. Hell, Brandon Marshall isn't even retired yet and is priming the pump for the transition. We will see but I think he will forego the pain of returning to football after experiencing the pampering of Broadcasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicg4360 Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Houston probably realizes they are screwed and will look at signing Cutler for a year and drafting a mahomes type that falls to them to groom him over the year to start next year.

If Houston did not think it was worth trading this year's second for Hack (basically a even up deal with seasoning), that would be pretty telling. 9 minutes ago, nicg4360 said: Houston probably realizes they are screwed and will look at signing Cutler for a year and drafting a mahomes type that falls to them to groom him over the year to start next year. Sent from my Moto Z using JetNation.com mobile app This would make a lot of sense for them, and they could perhaps trade up a bit from 25 but not necessarily to 6. With Hopkins and some counseling, Cutler could perhaps be good in Houston. This was a smart move by Romo all around-he made enough money, he has a beautiful family that he can try and walk down the beach with, he will have a great career in the booth, and he stuck it to "the Man." Now Jerry and bear his entire salary and unamortized bonus. Best news I heard all day-on a personal level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope Houston (By Houston I mean Bill O'Brein) apparently love Savage, and legitimately not just a thing they are throwing out there to put others off a possible QB they like in the draft, or to make Dallas think they weren't that interested in Romo where they would trade a valuable draft pick/asset to get him.

Horrific horrific deal. I agree there a big drop off in talent from 6 to 25. 6 to 12 is much different. Even the second rounder wed pick up is almost an early third. Id flip if this happened. If anything it hurts us. Houston could move up to take a qb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I do believe it would be in the long term interest of the Jets to acquire as many picks as possible in this very deep draft at the positions this team so desperately need .
