Greensleeves Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 2 hours ago, Pcola said: Teams who have given up on Sam Bradford: Rams, Eagles, Vikings If you have a FQB, you don’t trade him. Not for a 2nd rd pick. Not for a mid 1st. Do you think Philly or GB would give up their guys for the top pick in any draft? Probably not. If we don’t get Cousins, the only way Macc survives is if he gets Rosen or Darnold. If he can’t get one of those three guys, he needs to go. Period. Exactly - if you have a FQB you don't trade him. That's why I don't want Cousins. If he was a great QB he wouldn't be going anywhere. I hope Cousins ends up in Denver, but if he goes to Minny I will breathe a sigh of relief. I want to build a winner, and throwing a ton of money at a pretty good QB doesn't do it for me. Option A was always trade up to 3 with the Colts to get our guy.

Only because I'm starting to believe it's actually possible to get 1 of them Mayock now has Josh Allen as his #2 rated QB. Josh Allen could very well be the best QB in the draft. I would not be upset with this pick at all. Much more upside than Cousins IMO. All the people trashing Allen could be eating crow in a couple of years.

Here are his senior year stats: Pitt Ind QB 12 221 378 58.5 2432 6.4 4.6 17 23 115.2 He had 17 TDs and 23 INTs and 58.5% completion percentage. How did he end up playing in the pros? One of the best QBs to ever throw a football. His arm talent was why he was still drafted in the first round and why Josh Allen will be drafted high in the first. I would rather go with a kid with huge talent than with a pro (Cousins) that is 4-19 against teams with a winning record. SMH that people want to throw 30 million at a guy with that kind of a record.

The Cousins /Washington issues have more to do with their ownerships obsession with RGIII than anything Cousins has or hasn’t done. I think the reason for the Jets infatuation with Cousins has more do with the fact that come draft day, our only option could be Josh Allen. For all of Cousins shortcomings, he is a top 10 QB. The Jets will be a lot more successful with Cousins and let’s say Saquon Barkley then drafting Josh Allen and wasting the next three seasons watching him struggle until Woody comes home and finally cleans house.

For all of the Allen struggles, no one believes he can come into the NFL and be good. If he is to make it, he needs to come in and sit behind a vet for a couple of seasons. Why on Earth would anyone think the Jets would be able to do that? For this to happen, McCown is going to have to start the next two seasons. Good luck with empty stadiums in Oct. And when the FO & CS have to throw him to the wolves, what makes you think it will turn out any better than what happens to Geno Smith? Its either Cousins, Darnold, or Rosen. Anything else and Macc needs to be fired before the end of the first round of this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 1 hour ago, Gangrene said: It's almost illogical but I think Allen goes top five. I can live with him proving us all wrong and being an all pro with the Giants or Cleveland, I can't live with him being a bust with the Jets. In no particularly order, I think the top five players picked are Allen, Barkley, Chubb, Darnold and Rosen. The Jets will have an opportunity to draft Mayfield with the sixth pick or trade up from the second round for Jackson. Do I think they will have the hutzpah to draft Mayfield or Jackson ? No. Damn, this is fun. If it goes that way, macganan better bloody well trade up with indy to get darnold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

long suffering jets fan Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 3 hours ago, Pcola said: When you say “3 other decent QBs,” are you referring to Bridgewater - a guy who was a bottom 10 QB when he was healthy, Bradford - a guy that was cleared to play this year but due to inflammation in his knees, went on IR and has had three different teams bail on him, and Keenum- a one hit wonder? NONE OF THESE GUYS ARE A VIABLE OPTION FOR THE JETS. There is a zero success rate if any of these guys come here. So we'll stay with McCown for starters and try to develop another rookie.

JetsFanatic Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 14 hours ago, Paradis said: It's all over the news today. Rapsheet just dropping bombs about both sides willing and wanting to make it work. At this point, only the most disillusion of Jets fans still think we can compete with what Minny has on the table. Defense. Running game. Those things called Wide Receivers. Coaches. big breasted hairy Viking broads... we're not even in the game. So now what, can we finally get back to Mayfield vs trading up for Rosen? At this point the Jets are not as talented as the Vikings. However no one has a clue where Cousins will end up. It’s all opinions. It’s only an assumption that Cousins will pick the most talented team. I frankly think he is going to take the best financial offer combined with quality of life location for his family. He isn’t a 38 year old QB who is picking a destination to win a Super Bowl before he retires ala Peyton Manning. He is a 29 year old top flight QB in a unique situation of being in the prime of his career picking a team for the long haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UntouchableCrew Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Drafting a QB was always the better way to go, even if it's not as safe or as quick a turnaround. Let's hope Mac doesn't blow this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsbb Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I have a distinct feeling Maccagnon signs Bridgwater and Mccown then drafts mid round QB. He doesn't want to risk drafting a QB high.

Warfish Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Disappointing news. NFL Satellite Radio this morning was reporting that all three Vikings QB's will be allowed to depart in Free Agency. None will even attempt to be resigned. Which appears to support the Vikings are making a huge push for Cousins and may in fact already have a deal in principle in place. Which leaves the Jets as also-ran once again, looking at a meager selection of generally poor performing or limited success FA QB's (I wouldn't sign a one of them tbqh) and a motley assortment of very questionable kids in the draft, of which the top 3 are likely to be gone before we pick or cost us our entire draft to trade up for. Now where we want to be, but such is life. With Cousins gone, I'll hope we can stand pat and get Mayfield. I expect, one way or the other, to be very disappointed after this offseason/draft with the Jets QB roster. McCown/Allen/Hack is a real possibility now.

IndianaJet Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Blessing in disguise. We can use that money to build a deep strong young team - we just gotta hope we hit on the QB. And to those who say Kirk is in this for the money so will simply go to the highest bidder....I highly doubt it. All these competive guys want to win. If the Vikes offer him 5 million less then the Jets over the first three years of the K, you think he's going to turn that down? His chances of success with the Vikes is so much greater then with the Jets....which puts him in an even better position to strike in rich on the contract after this one.
