NYallDay Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 10000% him and Mosley are the only legitimate all pros, playmakers, game changers on defense and we have two.

Larz Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 A better question is how do you prioritize the assets going forward otherwise you just get the same Adams nonsense we’ve had 676532407 times already 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you are always blitzing a safety you give things up, often big plays Well Beerfish it’s rather easy to build around a strong safety. All you need is to add two very good cornerbacks, an elite edge rusher, another solid edge rusher, a dominant nose tackle, a hard-charging ILB, and then on offense you’ll need the requisite personnel to score 27+ points per game and then boom, you’ll have enough attendant personnel On the roster to allow your strong safety to shine. Very simple. 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be used in coverage as little as pissible. What a weird thing to say about a supposedly elite DB. Maybe he should be a LB. Or just trade him for a LB or DE who can get pressure so you can have your safeties actually do coverage. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trade him for draft picks and have an actual edge rusher do the edge rushing while you improve the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York Mick Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 If the Jets get a passrusher and CB next season and their injured players back they’ll have a top 10 maybe top 5 defense. Adams will help that but you don’t build a defense around a SS/FLB no matter how good they are. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was blitzing on their long td run. He was blitzing on another long completed pass. He got burnt for a 67 yarder that was called back on penalty. All in the last game in which he is being lauded for being the best d guy in the league. Adams is blitzing like crazy for one reason, we have no pass rushers at all. (our newly minted 3rd overall looks like Leo clone) Now against bad teams and bad QBs we can get away with it. Against good teams they make us pay, thus the 3-7 record. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetstream23 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I'd think the calculus for Jamal should be as follows... First, assume he won't hold out. He certainly could, but determining if/when this would happen is an exercise in futility at this point as he could do it before Year 4, before Year 5 (option year), or before a Franchise Tagged Year 6. We only have hard data for Jamal’s upcoming 4th season but I can reasonably estimate what the 5th year option for him might be (I’m 99% confident on this) and a 2022 Franchise Tag (less confident but still a decent estimate). Let’s assume Jamal has guaranteed salaries (salary + roster bonus) of: 2020: $3.50M 2021: $12.735M (5th year option estimated) 2022: $14.746M (Franchise Tag estimated) That would be a grand total of $30.981M over the next 3 years with the risk of injury being on him prior to start of each league year (ex. If he suffered a career-ending injury in the 2021 season he would never see that $14.75M in 2022). This represents total control by the Jets. Jamal is getting paid squat in 2020 (I’m talking payouts, not Cap here). That makes this offseason the real point of leverage with him. You can either string him out at essentially market rates ($12.74M might even seem cheap in 2021 and his future 2022 FT amount is a little more than the Jets were paying Leo this year) or try to get a more economical longterm contract in place that’s Cap friendly in the out years. If you’re the Jets there could be a benefit to approaching Jamal early (prior to 2020 season) if you intend to keep him longterm. And, that’s the key question….do you intend to keep him? The highest paid Safety right now is Kevin Byard (Titans) averaging $14.1M per year. Using the option year and one FT as above the Jets would average paying Jamal Adams $10.3M per year for the next 3 years. That’s cheap and it keeps him a Jet until he's 27. There would be at least 7 current Safeties making more than him (on average) and that doesn’t include new deals or inflation in the coming seasons. This coming Spring might be the time to lock him up longterm if you can't get the kind of offers you'd want for him prior to the 2020 Draft. Current contract: Current highest paid Safeties: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creepy Lurker Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 It’s simple. Get a real ball hawking FS, move Maye to SS where he should be and use Jamal as a hybrid safety/LB playmaker with a 3-3–5 base formation for a majority of plays. He’s great in the box but having him there takes away from our backend and creates a weakness in our coverage. This solves that and we shouldn’t be exposed too badly in the run game because our front 7 is very stout against the run and Jamal does well with run blitzes anyways. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Priority is getting online help and WR for Sam. Sent from my iPad using JetNation.com mobile app If the Jets can get significant assets for Adams, say a mid-1st round pick and a 2nd or high 3rd, I'd consider it. But we need to beware....those picks can turn into Darron Lee or a very average Leo Williams. Right now we have one of the Top 3 Safeties in the NFL and trading him for what's behind Door #3 is risky. Personally, I'm not a fan of trading the best Draft pick we've made since Darrelle Revis. I think Adams, despite the position he plays, is exactly the kind of guy you want on your football team. Talented, high energy, no off-field sh!t, etc. Hard to find guys like that. All I'm saying is that he's the single best defensive player the New York Jets have had since Revis was in his prime around 2010-2011....we shouldn't just give him away if we decide to part with him for picks. Get a haul that jumpstarts the offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
