Maxman Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 So like, since forever, I have been the one to defend the Jets. I have been critical at times but on days like today I have always defended them. Let the plan play out, giving them the benefit of the doubt. I know they will draft the starting QB at # 6 next month. Or trade up. But 10 million for Josh McCown? He gets almost a 70% raise for what he did last year? Who else was offering McCown a contract today for anything close to that amount? Who are they competing against? This is a feel good story? If you like throwing up, this is a feel good story, that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSJ Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Yeah I cant defend them anymore either. This makes no sense. Why sign him today? They shouldn’t even be taking his phone calls at this point in free agency. Let alone signing him to 10 mil.

Hael Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I don’t mind this tbh. McCown played like an above average starter in the league last year. He’s a FA, knows the system, isn’t going to make a fuss if he has to play backup and we are looking at backup money for only a one year deal when he performed far above his paygrade last year. The entire league has price inflation at the qb position, so yea it was going to be expensive.I think if we didn’t offer him this sort of money that he likely would have retired. I also like the Bridgewater signing. High risk, high reward + a safety valve in McCown. oh, and we can finally sack the national embarrassments in Hack and Petty after training camp.

I am very angry and frustrated with this team. Today is not a good day. I told everyone we should've kept Mark Sanchez but no one would listen. It's been nothing but crap and heartbreak at the quarterback position ever since he left. Today is a very good day for casual fans, season-ticket holder's, and PSL owners. We avoided disaster by not signing a 30-year-old quarterback who hasn't proven anything. Maccagnan is now forced to trade up in the draft to get one of the four blue-chip quarterbacks and we have that to look forward to. Chin up.
