Very curious Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app 1) never give up 2 first rounders for any defensive player. But yes I’d rather give Mack, $90 million when I have my QB on a rookie deal than spend any amount of cap on Jenkins. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLV Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Jenkins and Burgess are both solid players. We have a lot of solid rotational guys in the front 7 which keeps them fresh and effective. Our front was the least of our issues last year and missing the two big contract Macloser signings in Avery and Mosley. I have been very vocal that I do not believe we should pretty much ever sign a Day0/Day1 big ticket guy and JD seems to be following that philosophy. I would give him an A+ right now for FA lets hope he drafts well too. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This NYJ team as constructed and under this GM - it was Clowney or Jenkins. It was never going to be both. There is literally no reason to think that. Particularly since we don't even know if Jenkins got as much as Lewis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 These are good moves and probably approved by Williams who seems to like working with Gase. If not he would have left. I'm getting more optimistic about Adam esp after winning 6 out of our last 7. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s the heart and soul of the coaching staff. Did you see the sideline of the Cowboys game after the Jets were about to win? Offensive players were hanging next to Gregg and chatting it up with him in celebration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Robby does something similar and tries again next year when the market is better at the draft isn’t so deep in WR If he's going to take a 1 yr. deal..... sign on with a high octane offense to improve your chance for the BIG $ Hoping he comes back on a 3 yr. $27m contract.... all guaranteed in 1st year.

But you might be right, we may be willing to, just not at whatever price he ends up getting. I just think in JD's plan - he wasn't going to pay both. If we do sign him I would be very happy to eat crow - I am one of the few around here that wants him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially on offense where it’s clear the team is being built in Gase’s image. He was also very influential in building the coaching staff. Gregg is extremely important to the coaching staff. And I’m glad he’s on our side. But no need to diminish Gase by saying Gregg is the real head coach. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenkins is exactly the kind of guy you need out there and who you can trust to do his job well. He's just not a difference maker, but not everyone needs to be. He'll be paid for what he does. Right now we're looking at... OLB Jenkins - ILB Mosley - ILB Williamson -*****************OLB ? ************** With backups including Neville Hewitt, James Burgess, Blake Cashman, and (I believe) Luvu, Langi and Bashem correct? We need to upgrade that one Edge/OLB spot. I think it comes in the Draft. Frankie Freakin' LuVU.... that's WHO! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I have to ask. You talk about Edge play, and then talk about Phillips and Basham being superior. Are you talking about pass rushing? Because I have to imagine that's the case. Watching him stack and shed people or simply set a hard edge to allow scrape and contain from the inside backers is very good. All that stuff is stuff that doesn't get talked about. It's grit n grind type of stuff. To say he doesn't do "anything well" is a head scratcher to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He blitzes more than the other Edges on the roster and he has like 5 more pressures than Basham. Basham is more dynamic and played better coverage. Phillips was better defending the run. I don’t hate Jenkins but his game is so mediocre and gets credit more credit than he merits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenkins is a zero-sum player over 16 games. He’s a role player in the league and gets value from being a good teammate. I don’t hate him being on the team, as long as he’s cheap and he doesn’t stop us from getting an impact player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
