IndianaJet Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Resign a guy like McCown and draft Mayfield st 6......sign me up. McCown is a pure stop gap. We’d end up seeing Mayfield by game 4 Bradford on the other hand?He’s gonna want 15+ million a year and want to start. TB and Mac would leave him as the starter all season just because of his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get as many wins as you can with him, until rookie is ready and Bradford gets hurt again. he'll get hurt/injured again BEFORE a rookie is ready cheers ~ ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if it weren't enough with Ryan Fitzpatrick 2 seasons and Josh McCown last season. Year 4 Macc and Bowles and team still lacks a decent NFL QB. Enough with the stop gap, fill in, mentors!!!!!!!!! So what's your plan? We are NOT getting Cousins. Sign Bradford? Glennon ? If we draft the right QB with McCown tutoring him we'll be set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choon328 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 McCown may cost as much as Bradford for 2018 but he wouldn't require a multi year contract. I do agree with most of you that if you do bring in a veteran the Jets need to make a move up to grab the QB of the future. If they fail to do that this year it'll be the last year of the Macc/Bowles era. They need to be aggressive and not get outbid with draft picks. They have enough cap space over the next few years to supplement the loss of picks with free agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 4 hours ago, maury77 said: I guess I can live with Bradford on a very cheap deal if we go QB at the top of the draft. Remember, the Bears signed Glennon last year and still traded up for Trubisky. Fully agreed! Then again, if we want a vet starter, is Bradford really the best guy? He's certainly more talented than McCown but Bradford is incredibly injury prone. Of course, I think McCown was too until last year where he remained mostly healthy. The "vet QB" options are not very exciting in general though (other than Cousins, who will cost us a fortune and probably prevent us from drafting a QB).

TuscanyTile2 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 21 minutes ago, Thai Jet said: Actually I could easily live with McCown and a rookie QB for him to mentor. He's tough and you can't argue with his completion %. McCown is also a very likable guy (and played about as well as he could for us) but ideally I'd rather he become a coach in some capacity (QB coach maybe?) I could definitely live with him as the vet QB to hold the fort until a rookie we draft takes over. I get the feeling though that GMs don't really trust these QBs (maybe other than Darnold).

In more than 20 conversations I’ve had with people about Cousins over the last couple of weeks, not one person with legit NFL or Cousins connections has ever brought up the New York Jets. Denver, Arizona and Cleveland (as a non-starter) are the others that get mentioned. https://football.realgm.com/analysis/3036/Nfl-Scouting-Combine-Notebook-Friday Cannot believe that drafting Darron Lee and two safeties and then firing the offensive coordinator who wanted to make the Jets offense more like the Saints hasn’t had the effect of making the Jets a desirable landing spot for top QBs.

Dinamite Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 The jets will be linked with Cousins because they will be used as leverage. Without the jets driving up the price, vikes and Denver can pay less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to have the GM be smart enough to realize they’re probably not landing Cousins. Make your best offer early and just leave it in the table if you have to...but I think the focus should be on isolating the guy they like as the #2 QB in the FA class (Bridgewater for me) and aggressively pursuing him early while the other guys are fawning over Cousins. Show someone realistic he’s your guy and get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I don't know what people are all upset about. Don't you haters realize we got the best player in the entire draft 2 of the last 3 seasons and we have yet another #6 overall pick? I mean we have a safety tandem that'll be the league's best for the next decade, and I hear safeties are more important than ever before. Nothing to worry about here.

Without the jets driving up the price, vikes and Denver can pay less. It's more likely that the agents are using the Vikings and Broncos to drive up the price on the Jets knowing that the biggest 1st year money can and will only come from the Jets. Cousins can say what he wants but his agents will push him hard if the Jets are offering $20+ million more cash in the first year. It'll be hard for him to turn that down.
