slimjasi Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Both guys are studs at positions of need, but considering that the Dolphins just got a 1st for Minkah, they are likely going to be too costly. We really need to build through the draft with a competent GM. Let's hope Douglas is that guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the top O-lines, most of those players were drafted by them. Not a lot of piecing together through trade or free agency. Indy (big improvement last year), Dallas, Pittsburgh, even NE does it for the most part...another thing they have in common regarding the O-line...most have DEPTH!!!

GREENBEAN Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I can't see Joe D give up a top choice in the draft for any of these 2. I believe Joe D wants to develop through the draft that's why he got a 6 year contract. There's still a lot to build around believe it or not. New staff and major injuries have hurt the start of the season. It is what it is. Time to just deal with the season ahead. Another season in JET misery paradise. I agree. I have no problem with signing guys who are released like taco, but I want JD to have his full compliment of draft picks going into the draft. Right now we are down a 7th it looks like but have all of the rest. Let this team fight through the adversity and see who does what. Using high draft picks for aging stars who haven’t played this season yet is not smart. Trading for consistent malcontents is not smart either.

Is a headache like Ramsey, who is going to want Revis money in a couple of years, REALLY worth picking a top three player and having him under control for 5 years? UM.....no. You build through the draft. I get it, everyone is gunshy after Idzik and Mac. Any misstep and you are clamoring for the wolves. But the ONLY way this franchise gets out of its decade-long rut is to hold the picks, draft well for three years, and be ready to rock. If you drink the Kool-Aid and go for the easy fix, we are back to the Idzik-Mac debacle. This place would explode if we had a Revis part II situation on our hands a year or two from now.

varjet Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I think if Trent Williams agreed to a reasonable 4 year contract starting this year and JD thought he would hold up as a solid LT for Darnold, the Jets should give up to their 2020 2nd round pick for him. It is not really logical to think you have a FQB but Beachum as his LT. If you have a FQB, you need to pay an LT. Hopefully TW would come at a slight discount given his situation. When the other clowns were playing QB, the Jets did not need to pay for an LT. Now they do. The team has many needs. The first round pick next year will be too high. Knock of the LT and look for EDGE, WR and CB in the draft/FA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine that language like this is not routinely voiced by successful GM's in trade discussions. The team getting the player is going to want that player for as many games as possible, because as the season continues their return on investment value continues to decline. Maybe if I phrase the idea differently then we can agree. For instance the Jets offer 2020 2nd & 5th round picks, give Wash a deadline that the agreement must be made by Monday after week 3. Then a vague statement of "we have some other things in the works to move on to if this trade is not able to be completed by that date.

Start developing him now when you have the third string Qb behind center. You know what you have with K Beachum at LT ( he's not going to be back next year ). The Jets aren't winning anything this year , and why it's stupid to invest in a 31 year old LT Trent Williams. Time to start building an offense line that's going to be around for awhile, and not for the short haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We trade a loud mouth and a slacker for another shutdown CB who is also a loudmouth. There's a lot of talk on these boards about trading Leo and Adams. Why get rid of Leo when we have no idea of how good Q. Williams will be? Plus, it's more than a stat line that gives the full measure of how well a player is doing. Leo does a lot of good things that don't appear in stats. As for Adams, who takes his spot if he's gone? Too often, we as fans are reacting out of emotion instead of logic. The trade I would make would be Trumaine Johnson, but that can't happen until next offseason due to the cap hit. We have a new coach and GM dealing with a banged up roster and poor draftees left over from the previous regime. I feel we need to not over react only 2 games in although the next couple of weeks (games) don't look too promising. I'd suggest we give these guys (HC and GM) some time to put their stamp on this team and as hard as it is for us Jets fans, be a little patient....for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
