Patriot Killa Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 And I say yes. Sign him. Not every 30 year old is a bad signing. He had 9 sacks last year on limited play. He’s capable of playing up to standards for 2-3 more years at the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoni Beast Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Good signing for a couple of years. Prefer him over Ansah if we are going for a veteran. I still hope we come away with another edge rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Lawrence, Clark and Clowney all getting tagged, Houston would be nice add. And as an added bonus, since he was released, he will not count against potential comp picks next season.

rayzor Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 No good young player will be available. They franchised Lawrence, Clark and Clowney already. It will have to be an older guy like Houston or someone in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choon328 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 There's no excuse not to sign him unless of course he wants to go elsewhere. But money talks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRy56 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Pass rushers can be effective well into their 30s - look at Cameron Wake. Signing Justin Houston at 30 is not a bad idea. Pairing him with a top pass rushing prospect in the draft is a great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolloffjet Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Give me donta Fowler way younger and does not have a injury history. Houston is go but 30 yrs old. I’ll take a pass on him unless it’s like 7-8 mil short term and if we do still get Fowler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyjbuddy Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 How much will he sign for? Would he still garner a $10M+ per year contract? Has had a few injury-plagued seasons lately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signing this guy is a no brainer IMO It will be interesting to see how our comp situation plays out this year. I think we will nullify all of the guys we let go with the FA splurge we're going to try and put together. Our scrub castoffs will be swallowed whole by the big signings we bring in. We are letting half our roster go so who knows, but I'm pretty sure it goes by contract size and all that right? We should be bringing in much better/higher contract guys than we let go. Who do we have on our list? Mo Claiborne, Skrine, Kerse, Pennel ? Not the strongest list. Anyone else of note? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrcoops Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Yup. 30 years old, but still a productive pass rusher. Absolutely worth signing for the Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a long shot with the number of holes we have to fill and the amount of cap space; but if we lose more than we sign, maybe we can grab an extra pick.

choon328 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I would the give them a 6th or 7th to get him here then try to extend him for 2 years to lower his $15.5 million base salary this year with some restructuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkeyeJet Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Signing a guy like Houston and potentially another Edge allows the Jets to potentially take a gamble on a skill position or OL at 3 by eliminating the glaring need in FA.

I just don’t think Maccagnan has the chops but I’d trade for Houston solely to secure him without having to bid.

joenamathwouldn'tcry Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 He would be great if healthy. " IF HEALTHY"... Didn't play a full season three of the last four years. This past year missed four games. 2016 season played only five games. 2015, only 11 games played. In four of his eight seasons in the league, he missed significant time, four games or more. A lot of money dedicated to a player 30 years of age who's missed 1/4 of the games played during his career. Proceed with caution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
