Villain The Foe Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Seems like you're trying to make a non-vacancy a vacancy in order to make a Q Williams pick a need in order to fill a hole which was purposely and unnecessarily created. Sheldon Richardson became a lockerroom problem, a problem that actually developed with the favouritism from Marshall, Decker and Mangold when it came to their QB Ryan Fitzpatrick. Favouritism that backfired after Antics by guys like Marshall placing blame on folks and pointing fingers at others, but once Ryan became the Fitzpatrick folks pretended he wasnt, those antics turned into lockerroom issues with outspoken players like Richardson who got tired of guys like Marshall running their mouth about guys like Revis but would "go down with the ship" if Fitz through 3 INT's to end our season, then open the next season throwing 6 picks in a game. That lockerroom got out of control and the participants were dismissed. Big Cat is talented, he simply didnt end up living up to the hype that we see surrounding players every draft. But he's not bad enough to basically create a vacancy and draft a guy at a position that we dont need, simply because Q is experiencing the same hype that Big Cat had back when he was being hyped. We shouldnt even be concentrating on that side of the ball with the 1st pick anyway. If the Jets wanted to continue drafting defense in the 1st round forever, they should have thought about that before drafting Sam Darnold. Q Williams doesnt score points nor does he directly impact the offense which it's purpose is to score points. Every year we draft defense, every year the NFL creates rules to further limit the defense. How about not resisting and providing Sam with the ability to score in today's high octane NFL. Keeping Big Cat and getting Sam some starters and depth at the Oline position is better than trading Big Cat just so we can have this years version of the hype train. And even if he's good, that does nothing for Sam Darnold which is the most important player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause even after he said that a lot of you swore he was driving up Leo trade price. Here we are months later and Leo was up there modeling jerseys with the rest of our Core players. And Gase has talk him up in multiple interviews. Everything they have said publicly can be true and he still doesn't get re-signed or he gets traded. They're not mutually exclusive of each other. I've never heard of a GM or Coach publicly saying they want to trade someone or that a player isn't a part of the future of the team. That eliminates any leverage in a possible trade. Even the Cardinals haven't publicly said they're trying trade Rosen and that's pretty much a foregone conclusion. And saying they'd like to extend him might mean they'll extend him at $8 million but not anything more. Expressing a desire doesn't mean they'll do it at any cost. Some of you guys are too gullible.

kdels62 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 40 minutes ago, varjet said: The Jets will run a 3-3-5 as a base because of Jamal Adams. He is the Swiss Army Knife, S who can play LB and vice versa who can make that defense work. I am somewhat surprised they let Brooks walk-they could have used a safety like that who can cover. So for those who see Adams as overdrafted (and I think there is a good argument for that), let’s see if this defense can work with Adams playing that role. The key to the defense will be Mosley. I agree and just looking at this team’s composition after free agency I think we’re investing hard in a 3-3-5 base. Mosley was signed as the primary read and react guy in the middle. Poole will play a hybrid slot/ safety/ viper role. Adams already is a rover/safety/lb/ slot guy. This also explains why some safeties have come in for pre-draft visits since the 3-3-5 needs a true center fielder and Maye might not be that. I think the Jets are waiting for the draft to decide what to do with Lee and if they don’t take Allen, they’ll give Lee a shot to win the WLB/ blitzer role. Again this makes sense of why they’re really diligent on Oliver, Williams, Allen and not Bosa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything that happens on the otherside of the ball indirectly helps or hinders the opposite side. However, you can have all of what you mentioned above, but if Sam gets injured, like every other QB we've had (including Sam) line up being the Oline since 2015, then what good is it to Sam if Sam is on the sideline and we're watching Siemian? Sam needs more than indirect help. The Jets need more than Sacks. I will take 10 more TD's than 10 more sacks because TD's have a much higher impact on giving you the win.

Everything that happens on the otherside of the ball indirectly helps or hinders the opposite side. 1 that's not how football teams work it's a team. When the defense gets off the field, puts their helmets on the bench and then Sam throws one of his league leading picks last season, that demoralizes (and exhausts) the defense and when the defense can't get off the field all game, give up points, it puts pressure on Sam to come back, or keep pace there's also the scenario where both the offense and the defense are great and the special teams loses the game all the parts of the team are important. Now i'm not saying draft a place kicker at 3 but the gold jackets in this draft are likely at DT a bird in the hand and all that I can't get over the Orlando Pace year. all those picks, the double trade down, and it was a bunch of bums. Quantity doesn't equal quality. the games are won and lost by a handful of players. Sam is one of them but a defender (like 2009 revis ) can also change the outcome it's important they stay at 3 and pick a game changer.

slimjasi Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Trading Leo makes no sense. You are just creating another hole in the roster. You don't wanna give him a big contract when his current contract up? Sure - I happen to agree with you. But trading him just to force yourself into having to draft another DL . . . why?
