HawkeyeJet Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Would imagine the price will be the next two 1st rounders. I love Mack obviously, but I can't blame the Jets for not paying that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanatic Posted September 1, 2018 Author Share Posted September 1, 2018 @RichCimini: Mack would've been a great fit for the #Jets, but they deemed the trade-compensation (and perhaps a potential contract) to be excessive. m.twit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RVAJet815 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I'll wait to see what they paid before I lose it. Definitely don't blame the jets for not paying the "preferred" price tag, but talent like this...in our prime position of need...doesn't come onto the market very often.

Grandy Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 In not at all hurt by this. I think trading 2 first rounders for him is not worth it in the slightest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Untouchable Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Good People are batsh*t wanting to severely limit our resources to support Darnold over the next 2-3 years all for yet another defensive player. Mack is one of the Top 3 passrushers in the league, but Darnold’s development takes precedent above all else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W. Namath Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Good. Not worth the money or the draft picks. All resources need to be used on offense. We have address the defense for the last 20 years. Time for a philosophical change. I want todd gurleys and odell beckums and rob gronkowskis on this offense. No more defense!!!!!!!

But Ok... It could turn out to be different, but had been reported Oakland wanted 2 first rounders. It has also been reported the Bears were the only team willing "to go where Oakland needed them to go". I think it can be reasonably assume that is the compensation.

HawkeyeJet Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 So it sounds like 2 picks, a player and probably a contract worth nearly 90 million guaranteed. That's steep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeet Ulrich Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Jets should have pulled the trigger. Mac doesn't know how to draft so the picks are irrelevant and a player of Mack's caliber is rarely available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's steep. WOW Between the picks, a good player, and probably $140,00,000 over 6 years. I'm glad they passed on a guy who's peak is the next 2-3 years. Just when the Jets, and Darnold, are getting serious about a run, he'll be declining, and they'll still be paying him $25,000,000 a year. Glad they passed. Get an edge rusher 1st round next year, rest of draft and $90,000,000 FA money, OL and weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Mack can play 5 positions on the OLine at the same time, the move would have depleted any chance that we had of improving in a meaningful way for a couple years. Also, many said the exact same thing about Cousins, and we’re all happy we didn’t spend that money. Teams are getting smarter, there will continue to be big money stars available for big compensation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's steep. If that's really what the final cost ends up being, that's absolutely insane and truly not worth it, no matter how good Mack is. Assuming of course the player they're talking about is at minimum starting-quality, I can't see any scenario that this wouldn't be overpayment for anything but perhaps a QB.

Get an edge rusher 1st round next year, rest of draft and $90,000,000 FA money, OL and weapons. Exactly. We still need an edge, but beyond that, we need to protect Sam and surround him with weapons. McCown, Pryor, Enunwa, Anderson (RFA), Kearse, Carpenter, Sterling are all free agents in 2019. We will need a back-up QB, 3 or 4 WRs and at least one, more likely two OLs and a TE. Spend most of our respource on the offense. Nothing should be more important over the next season or two than putting Sam int he best possible position to succeed. As for Mack, let Aaron Rodgers & Kirk Cousins worry about him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycdan Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Even if the comp was closer to what we were willing to pay, the Bears might have had the edge for being an NFC team. But if it's really what the tweets suggest, then I'm guessing it wasn't even a competition and I'm happy for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Double barrel good news here. The Jets hang in to their picks, and Khalil Mack/Leonard Floyd vs Brent Qvale in Week 8 helps push us closer to the first overall pick to draft Little Bosa.
