We are going to whiff on most big name FAs. Over pay to sign a bunch of 2nd tier/career back-up types. Send next year's one to Indy to move up to 3 and select Josh Allen. Then go 2-14 behind a lousy rookie QB and a mediocre veteran. Macc/Bowles get fired. And we have to try to hire a new coach/new GM with a lousy roster, limited cap space, no answer at QB and no first round pick. Yeah, our future is bright. What is scary is that the two alternatives are: Bowles/Maccagnan spend every nickel to put together a team that can win some games (the 2015 plan); or Bowles/Maccagnan are assured they will be able to return in 2019 and continue the rebuild (It only started in 2017!?) I guess there is a third opportunity, the tell them they are guaranteed to come back and then can them anyway (the 2014 plan) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Id be interested to know what that number is. 2017-2020 you need to spend 89% of the total cap. I believe to be right at that number we would need to spend $80M or so but we can roll over some of that to next year, it just means maxing out all our cap in 2019 and 2020.

I always have this fantasy that there’s a fictitious “Person In The Building” who knows the league and has an idea about franchise-building who can intervene in the best long-term interests of the franchise. This person could stop Maccagnan from making the desperation trade-up, or throwing $12 mil at Tavon Austin. Then I remember that there is no such person. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Todd's favorite defensive player at 6, sign veteran QB's (Mccown/Bridgewater) and scrap together 4-6 wins. Woody being overseas changes things. Opportunity 3 isnt as likely with him gone, imo.

Jetster 13,322 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Well, Bowles may be well respected by his peers, but based so far on what we're seeing in free agency, players aren't even looking in the Jets direction like Florham Park is being hit by the plague. He's a terrible coach, we have holes everywhere on the team after 3 years. And now it looks like the Browns will easily turn it around next year and most definitely be a better team than our NY Jets, lol, the Browns! The dog pound is gonna have a blast watching Sequan Run, Gordon, Landry & Coleman catching passes along with Njoku at TE. Right now we are pretty pathetic. But, we do have 2 good safeties, lol.

The only real issue with it is that doing that twice might sour some new hires. You kind of look bad not doing what you say. It will depend how bad the team is. There are still plenty of opportunities to add good young talent by teams dumping salary. Plenty of it went on in 2017, and it is becoming more common, even in season.

Scary thing is that I look at this schedule and see plenty of wins. The division seems weak enough. Jags, Pats, Packers and Vikings are tough enough games, but the rest? Eh.

Don't get me wrong. I agree you do what you have to do to get a rookie QB ya want. Just hope Woody is paying attention. Next time this organization is in a tank scenario, he better make sure they don't do dumb $hit and win meaningless games. Losing next year's 1st rounder or both of our 2nds this year will suck.
