Sperm Edwards Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 On 1/24/2020 at 9:50 AM, Sperm Edwards said: It's pretty simple. Coverage/"layup" numbers or not, since they all get them, 7 then 8 sacks for a starting OLB will get him over $10MM/year as a UFA. If the Jets extend him, it'll be at $12MM/year, and then his sack production will dip back down to the 3-sack range again If he signs elsewhere it'll be at $11MM/year, and after we're done high-5'ing each other and laughing at it all offseason, his sack numbers will jump to 12 on his new team, making his adjusted $ value in the $15MM+/year range So which do you choose? Still think $10-12MM/year sounds about right, in this market. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agoldstein54 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 i wouldn't offer him more than 6-7 million. I think basham can start on one side, and on the other I think we should make kamali correa a priority. He is perfect to platoon with kyle phillips as an early down guy.

Agoldstein54 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 basham has a higher win percentage on pass rush attempts than jenkins. Kyle phillips is ELITE as a run stopping edge. He can play on early downs. We need someone to be a role player. Sure a star would be nice, but we cannot afford one. We need to utilize players that are young and cheap, and that provided little drop off when jenkins was injured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's obviously a big part of it, but what amazes me is how badly they read the market for FA's, what they'll cost despite what they've done. Guys were on the verge of passing out in the thread today where the DL is asking 22 million. "Uh no... I could see giving him 12...."

Patriot Killa Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I would re-sign Jenkins AND Basham. Tbh you don’t have to just pick one in this case. Basham will come much cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Look at a player and think if another guy can do his job at the same or lower price. I like Jenkins, he gets a reasonable # of sacks but you do not have to game plan for him and others could replace those sacks imo. Don;t over pay for medium players. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agoldstein54 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 i don't think that is the point. I think the point is, that by almost any metric, regardless of what the "market value" is, 22 million a year is not worth it for the amount of production he provides. it doesn't matter what number we would be willing to offer, we have too many holes to think that paying one guy massive bucks will cover for all the other mediocrity. just the same way "only" 12 mi per year for jenkins is not worth it also. we had two guys off the street last year play decently. We should ride with them unless we find someone to bring in at a good value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agoldstein54 Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 we would be better off signing a starting offensive lineman for that 12 million a year, and then finding a guy off the scrap heap that can get 8 sacks and be a body for a year (the next shaq barrett- kimali correa) and compete with a rookie or hold the place for a future draft pick. i don't consider jenkins as having overplayed his contract, he provided decent return for where he was picked. But for what he could command on the market going forward, its straight forward, is there someone else who is cheaper that could do the same thing. The answer is yes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phill1c Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 What is this "22 million" offer? "I would look at a player and think if I could get someone else to produce at the same level I would go with the cheaper player..." Hmm, but are you actually getting the same value based solely on sacks? Sacks are really not all that critical to good defense. Even when the Jets won in 2009 and 2010, they weren't great sackers. They played great fundamental defense and used the overload blitz to generate pressure. It was very effective, and, IMO, more reliable than having a single guy an offense needs to scheme against. So, I don't have a great knowledge of the exact offer (or non offer) that is appropriate for Jenkins. BUT, aside from sacks, Jenkins has shown an ability to set the edge and, of course, there's the notion that if the players think that a GM is going to take/keep the cheapest player(s) possible, well, nobody will be looking to play for the NY Jets. I know it's easy to think in terms of if it was your own, PERSONAL money. But it's really about building a team. So, paying FAIR salaries is important to get and retain talent of all kinds, elite and otherwise. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCJet Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Jenkins is going to get $10-11 per seaon and is worth that as a solid all around OLB who should do better if we actually had anyone else who was halfway decent as a pass rusher. If Yannick Ngakoue is looking for $22 million per year, Jenkins is actually a decent value at $10 million. Sure Ngakoue is a much better pass rusher, and as previously mentioned is someone teams to need to gameplay for, but if he is a 12 sack guy at that price, im happy to pay $10 million for a high character player who can get 7-8 sacks and play the run well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sign Jenkins for $10-12M per year and Draft either Zach Baun, Josh Uche or Kenny Willekes somewhere in Rounds 2-5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varjet Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Each NFL team has a salary cap and floor, and more than half the team could theoretically be cheap draft picks. Someone needs to get paid. Jenkins could be that guy. I thought the Jaguars drafted Josh Allen to replace Yannick. The Jets should have drafted Josh Allen. They are similar players. Allen may be better against the run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycdan Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 I love the strategy of cutting or trading all of our stars so we can have a team full of modestly talented but highly cost-effective guys and $50MM of cap room we can't spend because there aren't enough FAs out there who want to play on a team with no other stars. It gives me goose bumps just thinking about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
