At least contracts are (generally) not guaranteed, like MLB, where a clunker lives on and kills the team in every way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do, its called being cut. Because of the trumane johnson, albert hansworths, and the nnomdi asougha's of the NFL, the fully gaurenteed contracts will never be a thing. Most GM's have the contracts set to where free agent signings can be cut around half way through their contracts. With that being said, the johnson signing might have been the worst contract I have ever seen this team dish out. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The Bears, Falcons, Jets, and Rams will gain additional cap space starting Tuesday, as Field Yates of ESPN.com (on Twitter) notes. The extra flexibility comes from the following releases that have been designated as post-June 1 cuts: Bears, Trey Burton: $2.8MM Falcons, Desmond Trufant: $10.75MM Jets, Trumaine Johnson: $11MM Rams, Todd Gurley: $5.5MM Players released after June 1 can have their remaining cap charge spread out across two seasons, rather than one. These four players were released earlier this year, but designated as post-June 1 cuts to smooth out the dead money. For these teams, a chunk of this money will go towards funding the incoming rookie class. However, there will still be some room left over for summer upgrades, thanks to the top-51 rule. In the case of the Falcons, they’ll have about $8.25MM to spend, as Kevin Knight of The Falcoholic notes. The additional space could jumpstart talks for June’s best remaining free agents, a group that includes defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, cornerback Logan Ryan, and guard Larry Warford. The Jets probably won’t go for Clowney, but they’ve shown serious interest in Ryan and Warford would make some sense for them if they want to upgrade over Brian Winters. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The last paragraph from that article I posted is interesting, mentions Ryan and Warford. I wonder if this 11 million is what the jets were waiting for. I assumed it was going straight to the rookie class. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonilla was the idiot. interesting comment... I am a CFP and haven’t done the calculation but I would take Bonillas side. I am very confident that the 5.9 mil , under the conditions from 2000 to now would not have produced 1.2 million for 25 years. We don’t have the contract but when it says, plis 8 percent interest, I am not certain if that is included in the 1.2 or in addition to.

I million a year for 30 years whatever, it was claimed he would have done a lot better taking the 30 mil, investing it and not have the value of a million today vs what it was worth 30 years ago.\ Plus the Mets and Wilpon earned interest on those 30 million dollars over the 30 years.

I’d still take Bonillas side... the rate of return for the S and P has not been 8 percent since 2000. perhaps you or I could have managed it but a non revocable annuity is probably the best thing Bonilla did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lith Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 As of tomorrow, we should be at about $25MM in cap space per Jason at OTC. Will be intersting to see how/if we use it. https://overthecap.com/teams-set-to-pick-up-cap-space-on-june-2/ The Jets will pick up $11 million in cap room with the release of Trumaine Johnson becoming official. Johnson had counted at $15 million on the Jets cap and will now count for $4 million this season and $8 million next year. The move should bump the Jets to around $25 million in cap room for 2020 which certainly gives them the space for an extension for Jamal Adams or to sign a player like Jadeveon Clowney. It would also give them the flexibility to take on an in-season trade if the season goes well from the start. Johnson is still a free agent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumaine Johnson’s contract was terrible, but you can see what they were trying to do. Trumaine completely stiffed the Jets. If he played like 2018, we would be grumbling, but he would likely have a job. The Enunwa contract was the absolute worst. It may not have been as much in dollars as Trumaine’s, but we guaranteed an enormous amount, over three seasons, to a player who had already broken his neck. How dumb was that? 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
