i can see the trouble being directed at the qb spot.  there's probably no doubt woody/chris are reading the papers and thinking how the jets should just grab cousins and be done with it.  meanwhile mac is looking at his draft board and thinking he can draft mayfield and or allen or maybe another 2nd rounder and have a qb who would be set to start in 2019 and be the guy for the next decade.  cousins does have a shelf life.  they may get him for 3 seasons before having to re-sign him or somehow find the next guy in the pipeline.

but then again this is a maneesh opinion for what it's worth.  not much.

This is a classic play by someone with nothing to say.  If anything interesting happens in the next week or two, he can wink and claim he was 'in the know' but couldn't talk about it yet.  If nothing happens, it will be forgotten.  Just a roll of the dice by a guy desperate to be noticed.

No different than those emails saying 'stocks are going up!'.

Nah, this is about the time he throws out a nice anonymous sources report about some "huge" conflict and will continuously retweet himself and be the only one reporting it. 

My guess would be a Mac/Bowles feud.

Bingo.  He's a Bowles shill (just as he was with Rex) so I suppose Bowles will be elevated somehow.  Maybe Arians comes in as President above Mac?

That would be great if Arians takes over as President. First order of business, demote both these clowns - Bowles back to DC and Mac taking care of contract negotiations.

This feels too early for a Cousins storm, unless we are planning to trade for him. FA doesn't start until March 14th. I'd have to imagine there is no story attached to these posts because I don't see it as that big of a deal if we are just talking about resigning our own.

Curveball, Browns trade for Smith and trade us #1 overall.

He's got about 4 months until the draft and not much to talk about.

If he had anything substantial or reliable to convey, he would have done so.

I’m not sure that contract negotiations are necessarily Mac’s strongpoint.

@BigO, would you happen to be a sports agent, and are looking at future deals with the Jets for your clients, Darrelle Revis and Mo Wilkerson? ?

Agreed, but the two guys who need to be struck by lightning already got extensions.

10 wins over 2 seasons is only 3 less wins than the Patriots had this year, when you think about it that way it doesn't seem too bad.

  Not quite sure why he is employed

He is a beat writer for the Daily News. A rag that has cut the majority of its staff and is a bare bones operation.

Anyone with any talent in the position that he is, is out looking for other opportunities. The fact that he has not had any other offers to leave the sinking ship that is the DN, tells you everything.

He is a writer that has both an ego (in trying to become the story) and a sense of paranoia (that he regularly measures the temperature of the fan base, on message boards no less is laughable).

He is a dog looking for attention and affection. See SAR1.

Guys. Maybe he’s right. Maybe something is about to happen, and he’s building suspense with staggered tweets of non-news. 

I can’t wait to find out,  so it’s working.

Cimini used to troll Jets fans but Manish takes it to a whole new level.  Funny part is, he is a particularly good writer and doesn't have a lot of inside info.  Not quite sure why he is employed

Because he’s relevant, and for his editor that’s a good thing....it means his publication is at the forefront of people’s thoughts and that means advertisers....which means dollars
