This is going to get interesting. 

[DLJ]

Trade him because he won’t participate in a virtual VOLUNTARY program?

 

You guys are a bunch of women

He has now failed the Jet Fan Purity Test. Off with his head!

[MindOverMatter]

I see this thread going very well...

[heymangold]

listen - i like jamal and i want him here long term.  but he's making it incredibly hard to continue my support for him.

[K_O_Brien]

[DLJ]

So he won’t sign on to the internet and attend a zoom meeting?

The world has ended

[FidelioJet]

He’ll show up when he HAS to.

I would love to trade him - but because we need so much help on offense...not because of this non-sense.

[FlightBoyz]

Don't think its a big deal Jamal's missing a program like this but with the draft a week away its time to explore the trade market

[DLJ]

Well the majority may get their wish with the trading of our best player

like it's being said - all he has to do is turn a computer on.

[Untouchable]

Imagine having #11 and #17

Andrew Thomas and Jefferson/Mims sounds pretty damn sweet right about now.

[prime21]

I wish they would have pulled a deal prior to this news coming out.  It only works against us as he will take to social media and team will try and lessen their offers.

In all seriousness, per NY Post article and annals, an extension is unlikely and I quote: "It seems unlikely that that scenario will play out, but the Jets may want to wait until next year to extend his contract. Of the 191 first-round picks from 2011 to 2016, only 15 have received contract extensions after their third season. Of those 15, only four were defensive players. Even Rams star Aaron Donald had to wait until after his fourth season to get an extension". 

[CanadienJetsFan]

The leader of men. 

[AFerg726]

The lack of interest in resigning him is the biggest news here...That kinda shows that Adams actually is on the market to me.

[DLJ]

Jets had no problem paying a semi washed up running back 13+ million per but won’t extend our best player

[heymangold]

Cimini tweeted that they've put discussions on the "backburner" until after the draft.  

[slats]

PFT is starting to push the narrative that the salary cap could make a move down next year if the virus forces the cancellation of games or games are played in front of empty stadiums. Probably not the best time to draw up the richest strong safety contract in league history. 

[JetsFanNick12]

Im done.  Trade him.  Get 17 and grab Jeudy and Josh Jones

[The Crusher]

How will we know if he’s not attending on purpose  or just lost his password? 

[Smashmouth]

[Scoop24]

Star Player holding out for a extension is pretty standard stuff . Look at this point if they trade him it is what it is.. but nothing about this  holdout is normal negotiating tactics.

[playtowinthegame]

Ship his arse out to the Lions.

[JiF]

Does any vet in the entire NFL participate in the voluntary prorgrams?  

Exactly.

Even if you’re in favor of keeping Adams, why the rush to re-sign him?

He’s still under contract for two more years and the Jets can franchise him for two years after that.

And safety happens to be one of the few positions where the tag isn’t astronomical.

Personally, I’d trade him to a team like Dallas in a heartbeat if they offer up a 1st and 3rd.

Grab the best available OT and WR at #11 and #17, then you still have four more picks within the first 3 rounds alone to add a CB, EDGE, another OL and a RB.

Trading away Jamal could provide the Jets with the assets to potentially forego an extra year or two in the rebuilding process.

I’d gladly trade away a very good SS in order to put our young QB in the best possible position to succeed.
