Philc1 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 And get sold on him by this regime as a franchise qb? The knicks get the absolute S beaten out of them by the media for getting under the cap but not signing Lebron James or any big free agents yet the CBA actually prevents them from offering more money than the teams those players are already with. The Jets can offer more money to Cousins than anyone else yet Macc is sitting on his hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRy56 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Love me some Kirk Cousins but there's a big difference between him an Lebron. And never to Bridgewater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurnleyJet Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Yes is very SOJ signing Teddy Bridgewater, he will look good to, give hope. Until of course that leg of his gives way, then its all over. Mean while the Bills and Phins have two shiny new Franchise QB's for the next decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afjetsfan Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Go after Teddy who hasn't played in 2 years and wasn't exactly lighting it up when he was healthy? Why? I don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Teddy would be fine if you still take a QB in the 1st - on a fair deal. If he does well, great - let the rookie sit for a year and trade Teddy for a 2nd rounder. If he stinks, move to the rookie quickly, if he gets hurt move to the rookie. I'm not sure I understand the vitriol about signing Bridgewater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I understand the vitriol about signing Bridgewater. You made the correct point, and answered your own question with the same sentence at the top. The vitriol regarding Bridge is because many fear this sh*t franchise will try to sell him as the franchise QB, and NOT draft one in the first round also. If the Jets draft one more QB in the second round, I will change loyalty after 40 years. No joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah - I guess I couldn't imagine that being the case - I think they know they need to come out of this one of 5 QB's - there is no other scenaio I can imagine. Whoever else - other that those 5 I really don't care - if it's a draft pick I think there's a lot of upside with Teddy - little downside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YetiHigh5! Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I don't know if it's vitriol (OK, maybe it's vitriol but do JETS fans disagree in any other way?), but I personally am wary of QB's with a history of injuries. Some come back and are fine, Brees, Peyton, others become gradually more accident prone (I feel like Big Ben has more dents and dings than the car I drove in high school) and look at all the question marks still surrounding Luck. I just don't see how Bridgewater is any different, especially since he doesn't have the pedigree (yet?) of any of those other guys. That's probably where the vehement disagreement (vitriol) comes from. And it's for this reason that I also believe that Cousins is so (inflated?) coveted. A healthy, veteran QB who might still play (well?) into his mid-late thirties is (as we see) highly desirable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be able to imagine the Jets capable of any scenario. The Jets can f*ck anything up, any which way, no matter how obvious the choice should be.

YetiHigh5! Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I dunno, I can't see Bridgewater or Bradford commanding more than $16 million really, and my gut feels that that's too high.

rangerous Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 bridgewater did well enough during his two seasons playing. the main issues are his knee and attitude. lots of players just don't have the same fire post injury. obviously he'd have to paired with a drafted qb too.
