C Mart Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 This thread will go over like a lead balloon...But anyway. Fire away Al Iannazzone @Al_Iannazzone Maccagnan reiterates the Jets will be “very active” in free agency. Maccagnan says “I feel very good about where the team is right now.....but we’re not where we want to be.” He said they need to be more consistent. Maccagnan said “We feel like we have a lot of pieces in place.” Maccagnan acknowledges, “We’re probably going to be active in free agency.” Jets will have a boatload of cap space. Maccagnan said he “was on the phone quite a bit” before the trade deadline. Maccagnan said he’s “frustrated” by the Jets record. But he brings up their youth and injuries Maccagnan says he’s “very excited about Sam..... We really like his progress and how he’s developed.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Mart Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 Connor Hughes @Connor_J_Hughes Maccagnan said he saw Sam Darnold take the practice field ~20m before anyone else. “Those are the things you feel really good about” Maccagnan, when asked if Jets are a piece or two away, said, with cap space & draft picks, #Jets are in a position to really “springboard this thing forward” this offseason. Maccagnan name-drops Darron Lee & Brandon Shell as guys who have taken steps forward this year #Jets Maccagnan says he talks to every GM/decision-maker of a team when one of their players are on the trade block, or rumored to be on the block. #Jets, from that standpoint, are interested in every available player Maccagnan indicated the #Jets will be “very active” in free agency. He implied that was one of the reasons they weren’t willing to give up an abundance of assets for players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Why is he talking about the offseason already? There are still 8 games left in the season. He's got much faith in his team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoni Beast Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 He’s definitely back next year as predicted. Bowles 50/50, gun to my head I say Bowles goes, and Johnson gives Mac / new coach a couple of years. If its a disaster they’ll both go. If not he’ll give them 4 years together.

C Mart Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 Dennis Waszak Jr. @DWAZ73 #Jets GM Mike Maccagnan met w/ media for 1st time since before season. - Trying to balance short- & long-term - cap space & picks give chance to "springboard this thing forward" - Says he and Bowles "work very well together" - Focus is on this season moving forward. "There are things we're going to go through this season that will help us going forward." - On his draft picks: "For the most part, I feel pretty good."

C Mart Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 Rich Cimini @RichCimini Maccagnan on standing pat at the trading deadline: He said he was in contact with every team outside the AFC East ("on the phone quite a bit"), but didn't find any deals that made sense and could help team in short/long term Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Jets finish 4-12 or 5-11 then Mike Maccagan is most definitely gone. Even with 6 wins Mac could be gone. We are 3-5 heading into 3 straight games against divisional opponents. This stretch of games will determine both Maccagnan and Bowles fate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think Sam's saved his bacon. The relatively cheap trade up to #3 did that. Bowles on the other hand is a goner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Forgive me for not dancing at the thought of all that free agent cash considering how he has spent it on the past and what we have gotten out of it. I'll have to look at the FA Wr list to see if we can upgrade there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetstream23 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 How many good, very good or great players are there on this team? Macc has now had what, 4 drafts and 4 free agency periods? This roster is his and his alone. He built it and it's his baby. We're now at the point, with a 3-5 record, that either the players aren't good, the coaches aren't good or BOTH aren't good. In all honesty, it is starting to look like that last one. Name the Jets players who will make the Pro Bowl as either a 1st or 2nd team player? Interesting thing about the trade deadline question - The reporters seemed to ask if the Jets were active on the phones trying to make a trade for anyone, maybe get a WR, etc. Notice that nobody really said, "Were you receiving calls from other teams inquiring about your players and looking to grab some of the Jets stellar talent since you're at 3-5?"

Matt39 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Both Bowles and Maccganan have been great at making us believe they haven't been here very long. It's been a boring 4 years. But crazy to think this is year 4 already. That is a lifetime in the NFL. The roster just inst good enough to support another year and there's zero indication Bowles has any plans on getting more aggressive on offense.

It's beyond obvious that the Jets desperately need a new HC and I think we have seen more than enough of Maccagnan's inability to draft, so he needs to be replaced as well. Jets will NEVER sniff a championship with these guys. Both of them need to go, although Bowles is an f-ing nightmare of a HC and his replacement is more urgent.

kmnj Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 mac is the last guy I want doing anymore drafts of spending money on free agents-we have one of the worst rosters in football and continue to head in the wrong direction. Our coach is weak and stupid. Burn it down and do the smart thing. This time actually bring in a gm that has a record of building a winning team-back up the brinks truck and over pay him and then get out of the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
