JetNation Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Are the Jets looking to add more mentors to their running back room? Gang Green has reportedly expressed interest in free agent running back Devonta Freeman according to NFL insider Michael Silver. The Seahawks' offer to free agent RB Devonta Freeman is a one-year deal that would be worth up to $4 million. He has also attracted interest from the Jets and Eagles. — Michael Silver (@MikeSilver) May 20, 2020 Freeman is reportedly taking his time to decide on a 1-year offer from the Seattle Seahawks according to Silver, but “has also attracted interest from the Jets and Eagles”. The Jets currently have Le’Veon Bell and Frank Gore under contract to go along with rookie running back La’Mical Perine. Freeman had his worst season as a pro in 2019 when he averaged just 3.6 yards per carry, but had never averaged less than 4.4 yards per carry over his previous 3 seasons.

Tezza Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I read a rumor that the interest was shown PRIOR to signing Frank Gore ...this may be some old news. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenseed4 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I think it’s an inside joke between agents that the “Jets are showing interest” in available players. Kinda hilarious if you ask me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would make more sense than us showing interest now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Jet Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Doesn't seem logical with us just adding Frank Gore. Plus the fact he wants North of the $4m he has on the table from Seattle. No thanks, Hard pass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderboy Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Levon Bell on the trading block? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets might as well give him a full season and cut him next off-season, with the hope that Perine is ready to take over the bell cow duties and if he isn't draft a replacement back next year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gase got rid of Mac and is no secret he isn't a fan of Bell. But you are right. They wont get a can of pop for him. they'd have to eat a sizable portion of his salary which is pointless. But Gase seems to have his way of getting his way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Bell is gone even if he wins the rushing title. Gase didn’t want him at that price and will finally have an opportunity to dump him After this season.

choon328 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 "Worth up to" is code for its heavy on incentives and a very low cap number. A Bell trade post June 1st saves them $13 million immediately. That plus Trumaines $11 million can get them Logan Ryan and Clowney. I would take a bag of footballs for him bc essentially you're trading him for cap space. A combo of Freeman, Gore and Perine would still be very good and the additional cap space netting them two impact starters would make this trade a no brainer if anybody was interested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 He would be a typical jet free agent as the moment he got paid in Atlanta he turned into a pumpkin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
