DetroitRed Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 42 minutes ago, jetstream23 said: Any concerns about Cooper's recent (and extended) injury history? The guy always seems to be banged up. If the Jets DID sign Cooper in FA I'd let Robby Anderson walk, try to keep a couple role players like DT and Vyncint Smith, and of course draft a WR within the first 2-3 rounds. Amari Cooper, Jamison Crowder, Demyrius Thomas, Vyncint Smith, Quality Rookie WR....that's an upgraded WR core. Is Bellamy on a 1-year deal or is he back next season as WR5/6?

T0mShane Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 55 minutes ago, T0mShane said: The Jets are going to be around $65 mil under the cap next year, and that's before adding any OL, CB, or re-signing Robby Anderson. That said, Cooper is going to want a Julio+ contract ($22 mil per, $63 gtd) and I'd probably give it to him. He's going to be 26 next season, which is odd because you'd think he was 29 or 30 considering how long he's been a star. You're cutting Enunwa, which can open up $6 mil in cap room, and if you don't re-sign Anderson (it's a huge WR draft this year) then it's good use of money,.

Gastineau Lives Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 52 minutes ago, BettyBoop said: I think everyone would prefer to build the team through the draft but with needs at 3 OL, CB, WR and OLB it's no plausible to fill those holes only through one draft. If Douglas can fill 1 OL, CB and WR at receiver, that would go a long way. I'm not a big fan of making huge splashes (e.g., Sherff) as I think mid-tier, complementary guys would suffice. Jesus f'in Christmas. THANK YOU. After round three, the draft is a crapshoot. And I'm being generous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drums Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 40 minutes ago, Barry McCockinner said: He has earned a big pay day. He's not in the elite category of WR's, but right below it. I think about $16 million/year is about what he'll get. If you figure Robbie Anderson is somewhere in the $10-$12 per year range it's not too much more for a much better receiver. I can already see all of the threads battling about if he was worth the 16 mill we gave him without being elite haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimjasi Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Cooper is good but perhaps a tad bit overrated and he will probably be looking for top 5 WR money also, the upcoming WR draft class is thought to be loaded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Marshall was a 4th rd pick and Decker a 3rd.. Cooper was the 4th player taken in the 1st rd so going by production according to some here he would be a semi bust compared to Marshall and Decker.. Yeah, but he’s got a 70% catch rate which is up there with Diggs and Nuke Hopkins, so **** it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I'm leery of Cooper. In a big game vs the pats he was a total non entity. I am also very bitter that in his 3rd year with oakland he was an absolute dog for a #1 wr. How do i know? I picked him in FF . ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREENBEAN Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 That is going to take time but for now, a few FA’s that cost a bit more and fit the system are good. This roster doesn’t have enough talent to compensate for an offseason with barely any FA moves. We don’t have to sign every big name in the world but we do still need help before we can start walking again.Right. You guys are raising good points. I suppose my pendulum is swinging to the other extreme in my mind. The thing I’m really thinking is that I would like to see the gradual movement toward the other philosophy. At least not going for all of the big names. Amari Cooper would be a good one but at the expense of a Sherff I’d say. Anyhoo I would love it if we could end up more like the Pats and less like the Jets and Browns in this regard.

BCJet Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 1 hour ago, isired said: I agree we don't need Cooper, but seriously, the 49ers have built a very good, deep WR unit- guys like Deebo Samuel, Pettis, Bourne, of course Sanders - those guys can all play, and the sum is greater than the parts. Plus they get a ton of production from TE and RB too in the pass game. The Ravens - well we're not the Ravens, nobody is on offense, but Hollywood Brown, Willie Snead, Miles Boykin is a good unit, and again great production at TE. The Patriots offense right now isn't anything I'd model - they're average, and without Brady they're probably terrible. I didn’t say that we shouldn’t draft or sign WRs - I said I didn’t want to pay elite money to one WR like Cooper. SF has done a good job of drafting mid tier players which is a good way to stock the position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSNY Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I would pass on Cooper for this simple reason that he isn’t the only missing piece that will get The Jets into the playoffs and beyond next year. Give DOUGLAS this draft , offseason and then play the 2020 season and see what is needed to make them perennial contenders. Now if the scenario plays out where Cooper or a comparable receiver is available after next season is completed and there is evidence that they are only a player or two away then go get him and whoever else is necessary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 JD has hit on 8 of 10 shown below which is not bad so far: 1) LG Lewis (Starter now and if upgraded will be a good backup) - good 2) TE Griffin (Starter now and if upgraded will be a good backup) - good 3) WR Thomas (3rd WR and has helped a lot in the resurgence of the offense) - good 4) WR/PR Burrios (Starter at PR and 4th WR) - good 5) WR Smith (Starter at KR and 5th WR with decent potential at both with size and speed) - good 6) DL Phillips (In DL rotation and has shown very good stuff) - good 7) CB Maulet (Starter at CB with some good potential) - good 8) CB Hairston (Bad starter but still provides depth at a position still of need for backups) - average/bad 9) C Kalil (Bad starter and caused a negative impact that would not have occurred with Harrison) - bad 10) K Fickins (Serviceable but can be better and the 1st game kicker cost us that game when he missed 4 pts) - average So, seems that for just a gap where the offseason was over he has done good overall to help fill some areas that will leave less holes for next offseason at WR, TE, some Oline at G, CB and at DL. We may have fallen on a little fortune with CB that a month ago looked like we needed a full overhaul and now looks like another potential starter from even the draft and some more good depth will do the trick.Not bad. Good post. Let’s not forget that the kicker situation was very poorly managed by JD. So much so that everyone and their mother was confused as to what he was doing. Ficken is ok and is a nice place to land after a terrible offseason/ preseason/ first game in that dept. That said, I agree with you on JD looking better than not. Griffin, Lewis and Thomas being the cream of his crop. I have faith. I do. He is the first GM we’ve had who was actually supposed to be a GM since Steinberg. His pedigree is stout and I think we’re in pretty good hands. Now the HC???? I’m not so sure.
