JetPotato Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 FINAL PIECE? It's great that we got a guard and (maybe) a center. But what about the tackle position? Still crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Bell can get up to 280lbs. He's a pretty good blocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joenamathwouldn'tcry Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Ben Albright says that Incarcerated Bob has no "insider" information. He also says that the Jets are in deep with Paradis, as are the Bills. We'll get him, watch. The rumors are heating up, Vacchiano talking too. Flowers headed to Detroit. Oh well.

BornJetsFan1983 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Damn I hope we get him but wasnt there another guys that is about the same but cheaper...imo i hope we get him and sign at least one other guy, I think that would give us a pretty good line. Damn I hope this bob dude is right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps. Or it could be an effort to make the OL so strong that any JAG RB will find success, just in case we don't get Bell and/or aren't interested in the first place.

Just depth signings and draft for the OL. Then they need to pivot to skill positions and secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With how scarce the talent is at OT, and how important both T spots are, those guys get let go for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still crap. There's nothing wrong with holding on to Beachem at LT for one more year. Then the Jets can let him walk without much of a cap hit. You have a better idea? Should we have signed Brown to a 60mil contract like the Raiders? Or maybe we just draft one #3 overall and pencil him in as a Pro Bowl LT before he takes a single snap in the nfl? LG and C could very well be two Pro Bowlers, and then you have Winters (who is decent- let's be honest, not great but not terrible) and Shell, who when healthy has looked like a solid RT. So yeah, bringing in Paradis would be the final piece FOR NOW. It's a MASSIVE upgrade from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we're likely not going to find an OT upgrade outside of the first 2 rounds. We can build an interior OL pipeline in the middle rounds, though.

Still crap. I disagree. Shell actually had a pretty good year before hitting IR towards the end of the season. Beachum had a slightly above average year but he's no slouch. The real weakness of the Jets o-line was the interior and if they lock up Paradis they will have addressed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adoni Beast Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Starting to worry. Center is the most crucial position for our offseason. We have to come away with Paradis or Morse.
