Pac Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Coming around on A-Rob.. Thought he'd be overpriced (and will be) but provided he's fully recovered from ACL he could be stud for 5-6 years. If Cousins goes to the Vikes they're going to need a #1 WR for McCown and the rookie QB. Still don't want Watkins tho.. f**k that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASJ worked out okay for all involved - we got decent production for nothing and he is getting a new contract. Erin Henderson got a starting job and is suing the team for wrongful termination.

I don't know that this guy whom I would say was just an average WR benefitting from Fitzgerald being opposite of him is the almost 30yr old WR we should try to save. Reclamation project, I mean I guess if its like vet minimum with no other options. I just don't think we are at a point with this team were, while we are trying to build up, we should be trying to sign guys that have sketchy, recent pasts. I was hesitant on ASJ and honestly he kept his nose clean for a season, played decent at times. Floyd would be on what his 4th team with us, to me that sounds way more concerning than ASJ.

Other teams make tons of mistakes. Some more than the Jets and others less. But EVERY team makes mistakes in both the draft and FA. You make the Jets seem like they are unique in their failures. They are not. I'm not saying this to make anyone feel any better. I sure don't. But I am a bit weary from overly extreme/exaggerated comments like yours above that imply the Jets are way more incompetent than all or most (in your case "all") of the 31 other teams. It's just not so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varjet Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 If I am Mac this is what I do: Acknowledge that I am not signing Cousins, but throw in an aggressive bid so the Vikings pay more. Acknowledge that my second round draft picks are toast, so try and sign quality second contract building block players at CB (2), RB, C, EDGE and perhaps other OL. I am also drafting a QB, so I need to keep him in one piece. Being able to rush the passer will keep my new QB off the field. Acknowledge that I am continuing to rebuild, but this is the year I select a QB to try and build around. I will sign a QB who can be a good 1-2 year bridge/backup and play that QB and Hack before I let the rookie get hurt. To the extent I have to spend money to avoid writing the NFLPA a check, I throw extra money at players who are already here to build team loyalty/culture/chemistry. Davis in particular. Let's see what he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you count the 3 games with NE... but yea. His age is working against him. I'd say given he's really only 1 season fully removed from ARZ (28 yr old) should get 1 one last look IMO. No expectations of course, and 100% league vet min, but I like keeping one stallion of his ilk in the stable as a passion project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those yards came in a season where Jacksonville went 5-11 and was constantly playing from behind. Bortles threw for 4400 yards and 35 TDs that year - is he an elite QB? The Jets are always 5-11 and always playing from behind and never gave a Wr play that well. He's very very good and could be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm also quietly hoping we make Michael Floyd our next reclamation project. Why pay top dollar though at a position when you have young inexpensive guys who can play on the roster right now? That's how you get yourself into cap trouble quicker. I get the concerns about Robby Anderson but the Jets aren't moving on from him and the guy has legit talent. Kearse and Enunwa (if healthy) can get open and catch the ball. We need 1 receiver who can start to add to that group IMO. We don't need to be paying 2 or 3 FAs to come in here and do a job a guy like Robby Anderson can do for pennies right now. Especially if we may be looking to pay a FA QB big money.

Most rookie WRs struggle. Year two he was great. Year 3 bortles was a Trainwreck and he still managed almost 900 and 6. Bortles had a sub60% comp pct and the offense was anemic. Year 4 he tore his ACL which should mean nothing to a deshaun Watson lover who is already on his second ACL tear before he's played one full season in the NFL...
