Wonderboy Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 1 hour ago, jetstream23 said: If we get 10-12 sacks out of him then I'd franchise tag him for 2020, and then potentially look at trading him. Even though this just seems like the Jetsiest thing ever, drafting an excellent DT and watching him get 10 sacks, then trading him at the ripe old age of 25 or 26, I could probably get on board as long as two things happen: 1) QW is looking solid 2) The compensation for Leo is good (something like getting a 1st round pick and sending a 6th back to the trade partner). Leo has 17 sacks in 4 years (avg of 4 per year) with 7 in 2017 being his high. For argument sake, let’s say he gets 10 in 2019 and that’s generous considering he had only 5 last year. With 5 years into his career, somebody will give him a hefty contract, say 5 years 60 million. I just hope it won’t be us. Trade him now or let him walk and get a comp pick.

You said if they trade Leo they have to find a replacement who won't be as good. They already found someone who can fill his spot as good or better when they drafted Quinnen. So finding a replacement shouldn't be an excuse to not trade Leo. They still would have McClendon at the nose and Anderson opposite Quinnen. Then sign a vet free agent for depth.

Eaton Beaver Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 3 hours ago, New York Mick said: If he’s as bad as some posters think he won’t get $14 million a year. As I’ve said 100 times. If they trade Leo they’ll need to replace him. You either get someone that cost more and is better, cost the same and is as talented or someone who sucks but is cheaper. I’d rather keep Leo this season and see how he does. He’s not a bad player. As for as the first goes, they won’t get a first for him but I’d rather they keep him instead of taken a crapshoot on a draft pick and hope he’s better anyway. I agree, I hope Gase can light a fire underneath him and he plays the way he can. I think Bowles was too soft and allowed complacency in some areas. He is making $14,200,000 this year which I think he hasn't earned yet, if he turns it on this year he will get a new contract, I just am worried that we will end up with nothing for him if we don't play this right.

Hael Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Trade compensation for Leo would be roughly what we got for Sheldon Richardson (who had more production). Eg a net third rounder (in Sheldon's case we got a 2nd and swapped picks to bring the draft value to a mid third) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a question about your role, your told to f... off. Real good way to build team chemistry. You might even get traded, if you have a legitimate question about your role. imo i don't think landry was launched simply because he spoke out against gase's offense. landry seemed to be one of those hotheads who can do great things but also are a detriment if they don't get the ball. i will say that in the few i did see the doltfins play it seemed like they didn't get landry involved in the offense enough. but that also goes back to the philbin days.

"illiteracy" What you're failing to realize is that I was responding to somebody who said that if Leo was traded the Jets would need to find somebody to replace him. I said they drafted the guy who would replace him IF he was traded. And honestly it's not hard to replace 40 tackles and 4 sacks. I bet Shepherd could put up that production if he started all 16 games. Leo is an above average run stopper and an average interior pass rusher. But to answer your question the lineup with Leo would be slightly better. Not $14 million better that's for sure. And I definitely wouldn't pass up a 3rd to move him if I had the chance. Same thing with Robbie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talent does matter, and you are not getting the same production out of a McLendon/Shepherd duo. You complain about Williams "4 sacks per year" but McLendon had 5 in 3 years and 38 starts with the Jets. Shepherd has none in 16 games with 5 starts. Tackles for loss and QB hits are even more unbalanced. I am not big on the idea of paying Leonard Williams, but you aren't getting his production out of those 2 JAGs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Production is the only thing that matters once you're in the NFL. Paying players solely based on talent without the production is a huge mistake. Quinnen will probably beat Leo's production from 2018 and that won't be hard to do. Especially, since all I heard leading up to the draft on this site was how he was a "generational talent". So if you trade Leo you have the same defensive line as last year except swapping Quinnen for Leo. That means you have an improved defensive line from 2018 and an extra 3rd(?) for the 2020 draft.

Especially when youre trying to sell someone with pretty much no production to someone with "elite talent" as if it means nothing. And I'll say it again. Playing on the DL is a whole lot more than sacks. People forget all the crying over Snacks leaving and how it destroyed the DL. I players whos value was completely not evident from sacks numbers.

Not that he played under a HC who was clueless. Who had no idea how to use his DL. Who was completely overrated as a DC. Whos DC was even worse, a friend to hold his hand and nothing more. Follow that up with all the talk of Greg Williams is going to use players in the right way. Is a real DC. Will motivate and push his players. So which is it really?
