Thai Jet Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 2 hours ago, T0mShane said: Adam Humphries was an undrafted free agent whose “breakout” season resulted in 10 ypr and 5 TDs. Giving him $9 million per is dumb. Find your own unathletic slot UDFA and give him the minimum. He'll get $8-$10 mil per from someone in FA. Supply and demand. He had 76 catches as a slot WR last year. Golden Tate might even command more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they get him or Alexander I would have to assume Lee would be on the trading block. We shouldn't trade Lee yet. I think under Williams he is going to put it all together.

Had him in fantasy (league with IDP). Was actually pretty good the past few seasons, but more of a tackle guy. He's not the pass rusher you're hoping for.

T0mShane Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 26 minutes ago, slats said: Sure, adding a true #1 WR-type would be awesome, but where is that guy coming from in free agency? I don't think the Jets receivers are terrible. Anderson, Enunwa, and Herndon are a decent young group, and Humphries would add the shifty, sure-handed underneath guy that none of them really are. Better than 70% catch rate the last two years with Winston and Fitzpatrick throwing to him. Seems like a quality receiver and a good fit for this team. Otherwise, what? You're penciling Deontay Burnett in at slot? Humphries does what Enunwa does. The fact that it’s a bad free agent pool doesn’t really do it for me when you’re talking about paying some other bad team’s castoffs, especially when it seems like that type of player can be found fairly easily, and inexpensively.

This might be news, but most teams in this league have more than 2 receivers. And some of those guys have similar skillsets. It's about time this team build some depth at skill positions. It's long past time actually. Humphries is a GREAT fit on this roster. Yes we'll overpay, but the way the WR market is going, he'll be in line with the rest of the class soon enough.

How inexpensively? Enunwa just signed a 4-year/$36M extension without the leverage of free agency. Enunwa's catch rate is in the mid-50%'s the last two years, Humphries' has been in the low 70%'s. I think they're different players, not that a little redundancy at the WR position is the worst thing in the world, but Humphries is almost certainly an upgrade for the unit at around the cost of Enunwa's extension. There will be plenty of things to criticize Mac over this offseason. If he lands Humphries at @ $10M/year, that won't be one of them for me.

There aren’t a ton of quality free agents so the average players get paid like all-pros sometimes. That’s just the way it is anymore and that’s fine. It is what it is.

We didn't trade James Farrior. We let him walk. One of the casualties Parcells left us. They offered him $3M, he wanted $6M. The Jets signed Cowart and let him walk. They were $20M over the cap and had to beg the Texans to take Glenn, Coleman and Young for cap relief. I think Curtis, Fabini and Mickens all got new deals that year.

Yeah that’s seems steep for a team in the Jets position but he’s by far the best available WR and a consistent 90+ catches a year so It makes sense he has the biggest projection. That said, he’s never made that before and he’s +30 so that is a little surprising. I will say this; if the difference between him and the 2nd tier guys is 2-3 mil, I think that’s worth it. Can’t really put a value on helping Sam and that’s all it’s about. This team isn’t contending for sh*t so the spending this year should strictly be thought from a Sam's development angle.
