joewilly12 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Jets bring back three, including quarterback Davis Webb Posted by Darin Gantt on March 28, 2019, 5:03 PM EDT Getty Images The Jets have filled their depth chart at quarterback, at least for the time being. According to Field Yates of ESPN, the Jets have re-signed quarterback Davis Webb, wide receiver Deontay Burnett, and defensive back Jeremy Clark. All three were exclusive rights free agents, which means not really free agents at all since they can’t negotiate with other teams. The Jets are in a holding pattern with veteran backup Josh McCown, but brought in Trevor Siemian last week to back up Sam Darnold. Webb joined the Jets last season after spending his first year with the Giants, failing to latch on there despite being a third-round pick.

Villain The Foe Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Webb sucks. Really like that Siemian signing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nixhead Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 So Webb will be QB 3 for training camp and probably let go before next season starts. Burnett looks to be WR 4 and Clark a decent back-up. Definitely glad we brought these guys back. Good young depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetscanes331 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Burnett's chemistry with Sam cannot be overstated enough. For an UDFA he made enough of an impact to see if he can build something meaningful with Darnold. The guy made some really good plays last year and could be an important part of the offense if he continues to grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much of WR is feel for the position and Burnett has it, and he actually has the opportunity to have a much shorter learning curve given that he's with Sam. Burnett should be a solid 4WR with a ceiling of limiting the drop-off to basically nothing if crowder gets hurt. As for Webb, as a 3rd QB, i dont know what else you could ask for. Simien is a legit NFL backup with 30 starts under his belt and Webb still has time to develop and is already an NFL player as opposed to a rookie like most 3s. Nothing to complain about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

static14 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Burnett can make the roster. I think he winds up being a gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew007b Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I thought Webb did ok (he played with second squad if I remember in preseason which is a hard way to evaluate..) competition at the backup Quarterback position is a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Burnett showed something when he had his shot deserves to come back. Webb is not good but we need a 3rd QB. McCown......holding pattern. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make outrageous posts like this one and the one that says Quinnen Williams is some kind of made up "wonder" and then you get mad when someone like @Gastineau Lives calls you out on it. What do you expect? I have no problem with you or most of your posts but when you "poke the bee's nest", you get what you get. I like Burnett as much as anyone, and am thrilled he will be back. I am looking forward to him getting substantial playing time, that's why I'm on the fence about drafting a mid round wide receiver. But claiming he will be better than Crowder, much less this season, is foolish. It's like rooting for the team to fail. As for Quinnen Williams, you belittle the stats he generated against "soft competition", yet in the next breath you sing the praises of Ed Oliver, who's "highlight film" features plays made against the likes of Rice University, Tulsa, and that perennial powerhouse East Carolina University.

Patriot Killa Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Burnett is a favorite of mine. All for keeping him. have the same feeling about him blossoming into a good player that I did w/ Robby Anderson in his great 2016 preseason showing....and on that note, working with Chad Ochocinco so closely was also great for him. He kind of plays like a faster Bengals version of Chad Johnson. Creates good seperation on intermediate routes and can track the ball in the air well.

Joejet Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 You take 90 players to camp and not all will make it. Webb is a training camp arm who was a 3rd round pick who they probably want to see a little more of. They will probably bring in one more camp arm either a late round pick or more likely, an undrafted free agent, or Wofford. Clark has the size/speed that you like to see in a CB and is worth a deeper look. Burnett has shown a knack for getting open and has made some quality catches in a small sample size. Those things and a comfort level with Sam gives him an excellent opportunity to make the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxAF Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 I really like this kid. Great hands, good chemistry with Sam, stretches out and goes after the ball. Not sure why he didn’t get more opportunities last year but I think he has great potential. Not particularly big or fast but dude can catch the ball. Nice highlight film of him and Darnold.
