Sarge4Tide Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Jets have 22 Unrestricted Free Agents off last year's team, here is my ranking from most desirable to re-sign with the Jets to least desirable. (Of course, it all depends on contract/salary/cap hit, but this is assuming a market-value contract) 11 - Robby Anderson 6'3" 190 Temple (WR) - Don't break the bank, but he's a good NFL WR with deep speed 4 - Lachlan Edwards 6'4" 215 Sam Houston State (P) - Thought he was above average to good most of last year 48 - Jordan Jenkins 6'3" 259 Georgia (OLB) - At a fair price, he'd be good to bring back 77 - Tom Compton 6'6" 314 South Dakota (G/T) - solid vet backup/part time starter on the OL with a decent contract 19 - Trevor Siemian 6'3" 220 Northwestern (QB) - Knows Gase's system, solid vet backup 51 - Brandon Copeland 6'3" 263 Penn (OLB) - We need backup OLBs, and Copeland is solid 18 - Demaryius Thomas 6'3" 225 Georgia Tech (WR) - Injuries are, of course, a concern, but if he's healthy, ok 41 - Matthais Farley 5'11" 204 Temple (S) - Only have 2 safeties on the roster and he knows the system 45 - Rontez Miles 6'1" 210 California (PA) (S) - Can't stay healthy, but a solid backup 88 - Ty Montgomery 6'0" 216 Stanford (RB/WR) - not a fan of any of our backup RBs, if we don't sign/draft someone, bring him back 68 - Kelvin Beachum 6"3" 303 SMU (T) - at the right price, for one more year..........maybe 29 - Bilal Powell 5'10 205 Louisville (RB) - looked great at times last year, I think the world of him, but he's a bit old, might be done 5 - David Fales 6'2" 213 San Jose State (QB) - Could be a decent addition if we keep 3 QBs with the new 55 man roster 46 - Neville Hewitt 6'2" 234 Marshall (ILB) - Lots of ILBs in front of him, but a solid vet and special teamer - if Williamson is moved, maybe 79 - Brent Qvale 6'7 315 Nebraska (G/T) - The big lug can at least go out there and fill a couple of holes, but might be too pricey at his age 39 - Bennett Jackson 6'0" 192 Notre Dame (S) - Was surprised he wasn't offered a contract....... 37 - Maurice Canaday 6'1" 193 Virginia (CB) - Warm Body / Special Teamer 23 – Arthur Maulet 5’10” 190 Memphis (CB) - Warm Body / Special Teamer 58 - James Burgess 6'0" 230 Louisville (ILB) - very surprised he wasn't offered a contract, but we have a logjam at ILB 40 - Paul Worrilow 6'0" 230 Delaware (ILB) 47 - Albert McClellan 6'2" 235 Marshall (ILB) 55 - Ryan Kalil 6"2" 300 USC (C) - Um.....no 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varjet Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 good work but paints a grim picture. JD appears to be very rigorous in his approach. No more "what the heck, seems like a good guy, let's sign him." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 not a bad list. don't agree they should even consider semien. burgess seemed like he had a good nose for the ball and played well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyjbuddy Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Not that he was high on your list but Maurice Canady was signed by the Cowboys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll happily bring back Robby, Lach, Compton, Siemian, Copeland, Thomas and Burgess if the money is right 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangers9 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I think there’s a lot of guys on this list we should keep esp on D. Williams was able to build and develop an effective most of the time defense with non star players. I’m thinking Burgess, Hewitt, Jenkins. And if a good price keep Demaryius Thomas who played well for us last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Canady and Maulet were our starting corners for the last quarter of the season and you have them 17 and 18. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MS jets Fan Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I think he makes a play for Robbie but at 3-5 mil max a year. Jenkins would be a good resign. He had a good yearBrandon Copeland is a depth add plays well when asked and doesn’t complain.

If Jenkins is asking for $12M he can take a walk. Agree on Copeland, like Hewitt, they seem like good guys to have around. One thing to consider is if they are considering comp picks. That may be part of why they let these guys test the market. So far Anderson would certainly more than offset Fant. If any of these other guys get decent deals and the Jets big moves come through trades, cut players or they wait till past the date for free agents they might actually get some. I think that is why they give some of these guys 1 year deals and let them test the market. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does drop some catchable passes and his route running is limited. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barkus Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Jets have offered Jenkins a contract but he is looking for more money i don’t think they are bringing Edwards back copeland will not be back I think Hewitt played well, liked burgess. Would hope at least 1 one of them is back 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does drop some catchable passes and his route running is limited. A true #1 WR gets $20M/year on the open market (see: Cooper, Amari). You have a role player who averages 15 yards a catch, gets you 7-800 yards a season with a half dozen TDs, that has significant value. This year, the WR market is extremely depressed with all the talent coming out of college. There haven't really been any rumors swirling around Robby, and that could easily be because the Jets currently have the highest bid on the table for him. If he resigns for under $10M, I'll be both surprised and happy. I'd think most JD and Robby detractors would have to feel the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD needs to reward rank and file performance and bring him back Maybe JD is rewarding him by letting him test the free agent market with the possibility of being a starter or primary backup somewhere else. Perhaps the Jets plan on keeping Avery and have Cashman as the primary backup. This would only allow Burgess significant playing time if there were injuries. Whereas he could sign with another team and get more playing time. If no other teams sign him, maybe the Jets offer him a contract heading into camp.
