Joe W. Namath Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 With Cousins gone, this is the only solution now. Go the same route as the bears did last year. They signed Glennon but still drafted a qb in the 1st. If McCaron hits, great, jets have an asset. If he busts, cut him just like the bears cut glennon.

joewilly12 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Considering our options at this point are very limited I would consider it. Anyone but Josh McCown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I would rather have McCarron than Bridgewater. If we have indeed missed out on Cousins then there is no choice but to take a QB high in the draft an hopefully trade up to get either rosen or darnold if possible.

Jetster Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Plan B. Consider this year 2 in rebuild & get another stopgap like you said & draft the QB you want. Push a lot of money into 2019, no way with spending going on that there will be this many teams with gobs of dough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W. Namath Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Bridgewater is damaged goods. I dont think any team will waste time signing him. He is done. McCaron and a qb at 6 is the best option now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gangrene Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I honestly don't care which quarter under the bridge qb they sign as long as they sign one of the top four qbs (those four includes Lamar Jackson) in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAD_Brooklyn Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 McCaron is this year Glennon. I would be all over getting him as he's not good enough that a rookie wouldn't be able to beat out. However he still has that upside just based off him not playing and nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet Nut Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Not a bad fallback. Or pair him with Mayfield, i'd be happy with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetPotato Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Nope. Best plan is to start Hackenburg, Petty on bench, cheap #3. Full on tank for real this time. #1 pick in 2019. Focus the remainder of this offseason, free agency and draft primarily on offensive line. Only way to move forward. 2018 is already lost to us.

Uncoincidentally, they've also won more than ten games just 3 times since 1960. So essentially, they are perpetually stuck in a never good enough to get home field advantage in the playoffs but never bad enough to get a top 3 pick cycle. The other option is have a competent talent evaluator that can manage a draft, but you know the history on that as well as i do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst think we could have done was again to give fans and front office "hope". Like it or not, now that the Browns are no longer the Browns, guess who is?

God, at least it would be interesting.... Sadly, I think the poster earlier is right, it'll be McCown/Bridgewater/Jackson or some similar thing. Id go for this. All this "We got to give this QB time crap" is just that, crap. Either you can play or you can't. Cut bait with journey men, tell Petty he had numerous chances and then move forward with those guys. Take that 90 million and build the Oline and at least one ILB. I wouldn't mind even getting Lamar Jackson. The is one of the reasons why I think that the Jets don't really have to move up from 6 unless they absolutely want to make sure that they get their guy (if its Mayfield for example). I think Lamar Jackson will be there at 6, and I think this kid is having a lot of negativity thrown at him the way Deshaun Watson did. Guys watched these players in college and were super excited, the moment they declare for the draft then people over analyze tape. This is how guys like Watson fall. I heard a stat not to long ago that was incredible to me coming from a rookie. I heard that in the 6 games Watson played he was accountable for 21TD's....in 6 games. This is a guy we passed on in order to draft a Safety (no issues with Adams) because #6 was too high to spend on Watson after "looking at his tape". Sure, Lamar comes with some of the same issues being a mobile QB as well in respects to potentially getting injured, but so does a pocket passer who may not see a blitzer. The Jets need to do something, but if I have to sit back and watch another Journeyman for a 4th season then this will be the 2nd season in a row that I will simply stop watching the games. I can understand not wanting to pay what the Vikings paid Cousins, but there will be NO EXCUSE for going into the season with McCown or any other Journey man and some slap d__k QB that none of us wanted.

Sperm Edwards Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Or how about this? Draft a QB and forget wasting time+money on McCarron. Use the $16m/year you don't pay him on help around said drafted QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Jet Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I could easily live with McCarron and a top 4 QB. I just hope he doesn't want Garropolo type money. I like Bridgewater but there's just such a huge ? with his knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esquire Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 McCarron plus any of the 4 hotshots in the draft is a home run. Trade for Foles plus one of the 4 would be even better. I'll cheer for Teddy or even Bradford but that isn't likely a winning move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
