I wouldn't be shocked at all if Davis and ASJ got those amounts though. The structure is what matters most in those cases. Say ASJ got 11 million over the first two years and then the last ten unguaranteed in year three. That makes the number look a lot easier to swallow. I knew that would be a little on the higher end but he's 26 and I think he's going to improve a lot more and he has a chip on his shoulder and has something against the Patriots which always helps when we play them twice a year. If he doesn't get resigned then that opens up another hole that we need to fill with that LDE position now. I would personally love if he signs for 3 yrs $12 million but I think he gets more elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has messed up multiple times and as a Kicker..you have to be close to flawless because 1.) your position is easy. 2.) you are easily disposable. What didn’t he do that you don’t want him back? Jets were 10th in touchback %. He was 100% on PATs and 83% on FG 25 of 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDL_JET Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 http://draftanalyst.com/tuesday-draft-notes-post-super-bowl-edition Despite rumors and even a few reports, I’m told Kirk Cousins to the Denver Broncos is not a done deal. Denver is one of approximately eight franchises who intend on competing for the services of Cousins. One surprise franchise who also intends to be part of the Cousins sweepstakes is the Jacksonville Jaguars. I initially heard about the Jags’ interest in Cousins during practices at the Shrine Game, and the rumblings have been persistent and have grown louder since. Austin Seferian-Jenkins will be one of the hotter names at the tight end position in the free-agent market, but I’m told he may not get there. The four-year veteran comes off a career season with the New York Jets and is finally meeting the awesome potential scouts placed on him when he entered the league in 2014. Seferian-Jenkins has been vocal about his desire to stay with the Jets, and I’m told the feeling is mutual. The Jets have reached out, and the hopes are that the big tight end will be locked up by Gang Green before the free-agency period begins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdxgreen Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Yeah. I'm for re-signing him. Macc seems to have a knack for signing mid level free agents that have a definite value. Now his drafting on the other hand..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My least favorite player on the defense is Skrine, another player that could be a FA that I would like for defense is Malcolm Butler Butler is an upgrade over what we have now but he is on the small side and is pretty average actually. He has a 79.3 according to PFF which is an average grade and his play hasn’t really shown much different than that. I’d accept him on a reasonable deal though. Trumaine/Claiborne/Butler would be good. But I’m into trying to sign Fuller before all of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was very effective early in the year, and was a very good FA pickup by Mac, but that doesnt mean he deserves an extension at multiple times his prior salary. I dont see him as an every down player except in a "wide 9" type 4-3 defense which we dont run but more importantly I think there has to be some serious questions asked of him as to why he was invisible the last 5+ weeks of the year.

BCJet Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 18 hours ago, JetFanatic said: ASJ- 3 yr $21 million, Demario Davis - 4 yr $30 million, Claiborne 3 yr $24.5 million, Ealy - 3 yr $16.5 million? These numbers are too high. If we want to go to 3 years for clairborne, which Im fine with as he wouldnt essentially out there alone like he was this year, I think he would take $7million per, which is a fine value for him as a player. Ealy's second half drop off, and lack or position for what we run makes him too expensive at anything near $5/6 million per season. ASJ, while a good player, isnt a good enough blocker at his size to warrant $7/million per season. If you believe he is a "changed person", is good in the locker room and will continue to improve, then extend the deal to 4 year at $5 million per season (hes only 25) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 5 missed where SO easy. Guess I am nit picking a little. No offense, but that is just flat-out untrue, and the "didn't do terrible" assessment is strange. Here are the 5 missed ones that were "SO easy": A 45-yarder vs Miami on the first drive with the score 0-0. Makeable, sure, but not a SO easy chip-shot as you make it sound. The chip shot attempted he did make, as well as a 40-yarder, and both his XPs. A 45-yarder vs Jacksonville as the first half ended (odds are he would have made it if it wasn't made 5 yards longer due to a delay of game, which itself occurred because we had the punt unit on the field that converted a 30+ yard trick play with no timeouts left). He also nailed a 41-yarder in OT to win that game. From 46 and 48 in a monsoon in Atlanta: rain and wind, with gusts between 20-40 mph. He still converted 2 others (from 43 and 46) and made both his XPs (which at 33 yards, aren't chip-shots anymore, let alone in a rainstorm). A 40-yarder in 11-degree freezing cold, which is like kicking a rock (not close to "SO easy"). With the Jets 5-10 in a meaningless week 17 game, honestly who cares anyway; in such an unimportant game he wouldn't get credit for any he made (and he did make his other 2, from 48 and 35). Note, when given the opportunity to have Gostkowski attempt a 50-51 yard FG - well within his usual range, as he was perfect from 50+ that year - Belichick, who loves to run up the score, elected to punt instead. Guess why. "He didn't do terrible" lol. Catanzaro missed exactly 1 FG in the 2nd half over the entire season: a long 48-yarder, in a rainstorm, with unpredictable 20-40mph wind gusts. Outside of kicking in those conditions, he was perfect on all his (now 33 yd) XPs, perfect from inside 40, and was perfect from beyond 45, including a team record 57-yarder (with plenty of room to spare) to break a tie with :01 left in the half. He's probably the 2nd-best (and arguably might be the outright best) FA Maccagnan has ever signed in his 3 seasons as GM. I don't know what your expectations are for a $900K FA kicker, but they seem pretty unrealistic. Macc absolutely nailed this one, which wasn't without its risks since he'd missed a jaw-dropping 9 XPs the prior 2 seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philc1 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 18 hours ago, Sperm Edwards said: Well these would certainly represent exciting new groundwork for being well on our way towards wasting yet another $100m. I can smell the improvement from here. We won 5 games with these 4 taking up a combined $9m (half of that to Claiborne alone). Obviously the way to improve the roster is to bring these exact same players back, pay them an additional $20m, and assume their career-best 2017 seasons are their new baselines for the future. The most encouraging news I've heard so far, regarding any/all of the above players, is that Macc's (rejected) opening offer to ASJ was only 2 years at $2m/year.

I get annoyed when Kickers miss and the very few games my market allowed me to watch. He missed easy ones. I never once said that is a Chipshot. I said easy. 30-40 is easy.5 more yards?

That starts to get a little harder. Rofl what are you even talking about? Now you saying it's only harder from 45 and beyond. Well 4 of his 5 misses were from just that range before looking at any other context for those 5 attempts. The only FG he missed from less than 45 yards was still from 40, in the 2nd-coldest game ever in NE (which you are effectively grading on the same scale as kicking in a climate-controlled dome on astroturf). Under these same conditions, in the same game, Belichick elected to punt instead of having the NFL's best-ever kicker attempt a FG that's well within his typical range. Among those so-called "easy" ones, name the kickers that were better and more consistent last year (or the past 10 years for that matter), since he didn't miss any, nor any XPs. Other than those 3 misses - which were as forgivable as any, given the conditions and distance - he was 25/27. The other 2 were also what you term "harder" (from 45 yards out), and both in the first half of those games at that. Easy, lol. I'm actually giving kudos to Maccagnan for a very solid pickup. Folk, the fan favorite he cut, missed 5 of 11 FGs and 2 of 9 XPs before Tampa dumped him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
