Jets highly unlikely to sign Anderson

'Seems highly unlikely' Jets re-sign Anderson https://t.co/tGNDEfDjjn

 

He wants $13-$15 million,  the Jets are willing to go to $10 million. Thank God there is an adult GM in charge now.  Good riddance. 

[Patriot Killa]

See ya! Best of luck to you.

 

CeeDee Lamb in April?

Amari Cooper in March.?

I like Anderson, but as long as the Jets build a very good oline, I'll be happy.

Use a 1st rounder on an LT.

And as an example, this Free Agency projection has Robby going to NE, but the Jets getting NE's Guard and Denver's Center.

7) Joe Thuney, G: New York Jets

Like I discussed above with the Pats and Robby Anderson, the Jets could apply the same philosophy of trying to hurt your division rival -- while helping yourself -- here. Thuney and Washington's Brandon Scherff are the highest-rated pending free agents at a position where the Jets -- who ranked fourth in the NFL with 52 sacks allowed -- could desperately use an upgrade. (Coincidentally, this problem also dogged Adam Gase when he was coaching the Dolphins.) Thuney has proven versatile and dependable, having played 99 percent of the Pats' offensive snaps over the past four seasons while only allowing one sack in 2019. It would also make sense for Gang Green to take a look at Denver center Connor McGovern.

He should walk if he wants too much.

Saying that, a deep threat #2 Wr is more important than a box safety that does not generate turnovers  (and we are going to pay this guy 17 plus million)

[kelticwizard]

Damn.  Hate to see him go, I watched the guy go from undrafted free agent up  to nice long threat over the years.  Oh well, if the Jets can give Darnold more time to pass and our running backs better blocking, we'll come out way ahead.

Ok, we all get it.   We really do.  You don’t like Adams and don’t want him to get a deal. 
can you now please stop bringing it up in every single topic please?    

[MaxAF]

Let him hit FA wanting 13 mil. He’ll be back in camp at 10 mil.

Figures. 

Why be slightly underpaid just to play for a dysfunctional franchise where you'll waste years hoping that they can get this rebuild correct. 

It's a business. 

[Greenseed4]

Robby going to New England would be hilarious. He can’t run short routes or WR screens, and Brady can’t throw the deep ball anymore.

This is your opinion or something you read? If it's your opinion, why?

[RutgersJetFan]

This is exactly the type of contract that the Jets would have handed out in the past. I have no idea what to make of Douglas but this is an excellent sign. Let him walk and take the comp pick.

[FidelioJet]

I would rather have Robby than Adams.

And it’s not even close.  Which WR are we going to sign that’s any better?

He’ll be signed the first week if he becomes a FA.

I was more or less just expressing there a ton of other ways to get weapons who already are/can develop into better WR’s than Robby A. 

CeeDee Lamb? My number one guy. Love him.

Amari Cooper? Mainly just a name thrown out to exemplify my point. Cooper is a good WR too. I probably wouldn’t take money from the stash I’m giving to any of the OL though.

[RedBeardedSavage]

I’d rather pay Emmanuel Sanders 8-10 mil for a year then lock up Robby. This is a good draft class for this particular position too.

Good to see.

Got it.

I go back and forth with CeeDee and Jeudy - don't think you can make the wrong choice if presented with it and the tackles don't work out though.

Anderson is a tough call. If the market is going to pay him too much I think we have to let him walk. I really don't want to see it happen as he and Darnold do have very good chemistry and I don't want to see us put Darnold at a disadvantage and disrupt his development. Scoring a WR at #11 would obviously circumvent that fear - but then there's the problem of having an o-line consisting of traffic cones and turnstiles.

Wow that would be special. But JD would have to pull numerous strings to make that happen. He’d have to trade Adams-please- and get another 1st rounder and a 3rd at least to redo the OL. He’d have to sign another 2 top OL as well. Not impossible. I’d be on board with that. 

[Warfish]

It's looking like a very good draft class for WR's.

If Anderson wants too much, or a role > #3 WR, then such is life.  He's a free agent.

Just means drafting TWO WR's along with THREE O-Linemen becomes even more of a priority.

A task that would be much easier to accomplish with an extra #1 and extra #3 pick....

It’s a very tough call. OL is a more pressing need but WR is knocking on the door. I feel like if we can come out of FA with a OT and a G. I’d feel so much better about using the #11 pick on a wide receiver.

Ridiculous. RA is a 1 trick  pony. He’s no AJ Greene. Trade him NOW to the Cowboys with Adams and sign Cooper.

Or maybe he comes back after testing FA? He doesn't have numbers warranting 13 to 15. So maybe he comes back later? Either way I'm fine. I do not want Douglas breaking the bank for him. He's not worth it.

[KRL]

Will be interesting to see what happens with Anderson.  Because in good
organizations (BAL particularly) they will allow good players to leave if they
get too expensive.  They believe in their scouting and development and expect
the player that was behind the one who left to step up and fill the position.
Will Douglas have the same mindset?  Because 13-15 is expensive and the draft is deep

yep.  if he wants too much then increase it a bit and land a guy like cooper.  then get another receiver in the draft, either in round 1 or 2.  round out the receivers with smith, crowder, maybe thomas, berrios and it's a much better group than last season.  and as far as the passing goes, there's aslo herndon, griffen and bell.

Another "let's let one of our only good players leave instead of paying them market value" thread.

This is where we come up with all kinds of scenarios in which we completely rebuild our OL, and restock our WR corps, simply by letting our best player (Adams) and our best offensive player (Anderson) leave.

Not a building block player, not worth overpaying b/c he’lll help develop darnold, not a locker room glue guy.  Find someone in the later rounds with speed to be the go route guy.  If they don’t keep Anderson, it suggests they may look to draft a wr in the first round and i think lamb is going to be the next wr superstar.

Free agent o-linemen are very difficult to hit on - mostly just shiny objects.

You wouldn’t rather get the comp pick instead of overpaying? We still have our own guys to sign, Jamal Adams wants a new contract right now and we need to make our market upgrades.

its a lot.

True that but I do think it worked out decently for Buffalo.

Agreed, I should not have stuck that in here. 

[Losmeister]

we dont know who is going to pay him what as of now...

he gets so much flack here its flat out stupidity...    if he doesnt sign now we need 2 starting caliber WRs...

 

[Patriot Killa]

I think that JD would likely raise the offer to 11 with incentives for more money.

he wouldn’t go above and beyond but he very well might move the offer up a tad bit.

in the end, if RA is after the money, we will undoubtedly be outbidded.

Mawae, Kendall, Faneca & Woody.

For all the things this franchise has done poorly, we're actually pretty good at signing premium offensive lineman. 

Just hope we stay away from Conklin. He's injury prone and pass blocking is decidedly not his strength.

As long as the oline is improved tremendously, and Bell n Crowder are here with both our TEs ready to roll...  I'm fine with some young WRs learning on the job.

If the oline n running game can take pressure off Sam, I think he's one of those QBs who can make average WRs look good.

Imo that's much better than having weapons, yet under 3 seconds to get rid of the ball and no respectable run game.

Shame though.  It'd be great to have his ability in a competent offense.
