This was a given.  And in the long run will be a big mistake. 

This might also be a nice move by Douglas in finding out what he wants and then trying to deal him if he asks for too much.

What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response was there anything that even vaguely resembled a rational thought. Everyone on this forum is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you NO points and may God have mercy on your soul.

These preliminary talks will give Joe Douglas a very good idea of what Jamal wants in a new contract when he's shopping him at the combine. 

^^^ This thought should give the victory lap folks pause.  Until Jamal signs the dotted line these articles/tweets mean very little.

It would be better to have upgrades at multiple positions on the Offensive Line.  

What does that have to do with having Jamal on our roster tho?

Has anyone seen or heard from @T0mShane since this news broke.

Honestly don’t understand the hate for this dude.  

How about when he threw a hissy fit because we did NOT trade him to the Cowboys?  This after he texted Ryan Clark around the deadline that he'd love to play for Dallas.  

Let's see how much people like Jamal when he starts making Revis-esque contract demands.  

[CrazyCarl40]

Meh. Money and assets could be better served other places. But this would be a very Jets thing to do so they will.

When is the last time the Jets traded away a star player instead of paying him?  John Abraham back in 2005?

Darelle Revis 2012

Yes because lots of NFL fans watch Jets games.  How many nationally televised games do we get per season these days?  0.5?

We got like 3 last season and we looked like huge goofs in each and every one of them.

Extend Marcus Maye while you’re at it JD.  I mean it.  He’s going into a contract year in 2020 and is underpaid at about $2 mill.  Extend him now giving security but getting a discount on giving him another 3-4 years at what will be his below market rate if he were to complete 2020 and hit FA.  

Marcus is damn good and we didn’t hear much about him this year because he was so damn good.  Made a million game saving tackles where he took great angles and was the last line of defense which is his job.

 

BEST SAFETY TANDEM IN THE LEAGUE HELL F**KIN YEAH

Jamal Adams played lights out football all season long if more NY Jets played like he does every down every play we would be discussing this Sundays Super Bowl and the NY Jets being in it. 

STOP THE HATE

Revis to Tampa probably. As well as 

-Abe

-Keyshawn

but then we also often simply cut Pro Bowlers like Demario Davis, James Farrior, and Terrance Mathis

 

Don't forget John Riggins the diesel back in the day.

[Matt39]

Younger fans are a little more interested in individual players than the overarching longterm process it takes to build a team....so it's understandable they'd want Adams back at all costs. Adams has done a phenomenal job selling himself and connecting with that portion of the fanbase. He's certainly social media savvy and the Jets business side cares deeply about that type of stuff (too much I've heard- and with replacing Glatt in house dont expect much of a shift there). Adams is the PR face of the Jets and the only one with a national following. 

Anyways, Adams, while a good player...you'd certainly need to do an honest assessment to determine if he's worth giving a massive contract to. A strong safety who isnt particularly strong in pass coverage can only make so much of an impact. The Jets are in dire need of talent at a lot more important positions.

Every time you post one of your little rants it affirms my comments on the matter at hand.  I don't think I've seen even one good or even mediocre post by you on the subject of the NY Jets.

Ah yes, Revis.  Fair enough.  

But that trade actually worked out pretty well, other than a past-his-prime Darrelle later signing with NE and riding Brady's coattails to a ring.  We used that pick on Sheldon Richardson, who of course was a pretty dominant force for a while.

Now that it's a done-deal, let's all get behind Jamal and go win the division.

As I noted in my post, we need high picks to revamp the OL.  Unless of course you want it to take 2-3 drafts to do that.

A first round pick with essentially two years left on his deal- I don’t see holding out as a realistic option. Only bc he’s a safety.

Of course its an option.  We're talking about a SS  who compared himself to Aaron Donald.

I think he means that he's going to want to be paid not as a top safety but as a top defensive player. He's going to expect to get as much as an edge rusher or lockdown corner.

Precisely.

Let's see how much these fanboys love Jamal when that comes out.

It would have anyway. Your delusional if you thought JD was going to fix the OL in one off-season. JD will probably get 3 new players for the OL by opening day 2020 using both FA and the draft.

Ed Reed had 64 career INTs and 7 TDs.

Sean Taylor had 12 INTs and 8 FFs in his 4-year career.  

Troy Polamalu had 32 career INTs, 12 sacks, 56 TFLs and 14 FFs.

 

Just stop.  

Jamal just completed year 3. And everyone mentioned had help up front. Pressure on the QB. Top tier defenses.
 

Jamal is in that mold. He plays fast and makes plays all over the field. He was on pace to break the DB sack record before he got hurt. He’s an All-Pro. Enjoy him. We don’t get them very often.

Great, wake me when he leads us to a Super Bowl (instead of the Toilet Bowl this franchise has been in since he was drafted).

Like I said, if folks were REALLY excited about long-term, highest-paid-defender-in-NFL type deals for Adams, they wouldn't care what I think.  At all.  They'd be far too busy celebrating.

A step up from Miles, sure.  There are plenty of decent FA S's out there this offseason, if needed.

Rodney McLeod, Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix, Tre Boston, Anthony Harris, Justin Simmons, Vonn Bell, Karl Joseph, Jimmie Ward, Tavon Wilson, etc.

And of course we still have Marcus Maye.  

Maye + FA at Safety + picks/players to rebuild OL + cap space saved by not signing Jamal ($15M+ per season) >>>  Jamal + Maye + current picks  

[Daddy Wang Doodle]

I've no clue what the Jets will ultimately do in regards to extending Jamal, but I'm sure whatever they decide will end up being the wrong choice

[joewilly12]

Best wishes to you @T0mShane and I hope you find a #33 Chris Ivory  jersey in the clothing bin drop off boxes and change the name with duct tape and a sharpie so you can support Jamal Adams.
