Jamal has zero leverage. He can either play or sit, and if he sits he hurts himself as much as the Jets by reducing his value.

Calvin Watkins is a Cowboys beat reporter. I cannot for the life of me imagine where Calvin would get this information. 

[David Harris]

There’s been like 4-5 guys ever getting an extension at this point in their rookie contract. 
 

what a distraction now

play one more year and then the jets make you the highest paid safety in history. 
 

now it’s all going to go to sh*t. Teams aren’t lining up to extend him at this time in his contract. Christ Jamal, I had your back till this. 

[CTM]

This is shocking I tell you

[Rhg1084]

Would Dallas offer Lamb straight up?

The jets will forever be a clown show, doesn’t matter who you bring in here to run this 6 ring circus.

Teams can cut players at will and not honor contracts but expect players to honor contracts they’ve outplayed.

Except he has done literally nothing for the team over the course of his complete psychotic meltdown.  He's the only one who's made this offseason a circus.

However, I'm sure the NFL would love to discuss player contracts being 100% incentive based, to ensure players get paid exactly what they have earned.  Should solve everyone's problems, right?

When he's lucky to maybe get one more deflected pass for an interception, he wont get that highest paid contract.

Huge scoop from Manish and now being reported by Cimini.   Can't say it comes as a surprise though.

[TheNuuFaaolaExperience]

Get this F'N toxic piece of dog scat out of here. He is another huge contract disaster in the making, and his mouth is not conducive to a team building environment. The "best" safety in football doesn't move the needle as much as a decent player at a skill position. Go trade this fool to a team who is foolish enough to give us a haul. 

[Irish Jet]

Let him rot.

Should’ve done it before the draft! Now what is Douglas supposed to do

Nothing....

This was a bad move by Jamal.....

What is he going to do, hold out and who is going to pay him big bucks if he sits out say for a year and half?

[neckdemon]

trade him to the worst team willing to give us a first and a second

[Jetsfan80]

If only there were people who could have predicted this would happen, like me and @T0mShane.

Just when I started to like the guy he pulls this.  lmao.

A win now team may give you a late first. You're not getting anything better than that, and that's not a guarantee either. New Orleans  or Tampa seems like the best fit.

Said it at the time, if Jerry ever offered a 1+ for Adams last season, the Jets should've taken it because they were never going to get a better deal than that.

His leverage is his trade value. Why keep someone who is going to annoy you and possible reduce you getting a good return? You want to hear about this during a season?

hey sam good game, oh by the way jamal adams isnt happy, how does that affect the team?

 

oh leveon good g—so jamal adams this and blah blah blah

The NFLPA is to blame for the rookie deals being what they are.  This does not fall on Joe Douglas at all.

[choon328]

If the report about him not requiring a contract extension to certain teams is true then I don't know how anybody could defend him at this point.  This was never about the Jets paying him.  This was about getting off the team.

Jets fans don’t deserve good players.

Should've traded him prior to the draft. We'd have Becton, Cee Dee Lamb and Mims. And another pick.

And Marcus Maye moves to his more natural position, SS, full-time.  

We'll be fine.  Make a good deal, Joe.

[FloridaJetsFan]

Joe D is NOT gonna be pushed around by a young dude with 2 years left on his contract. He will sit on him for 2 years if he doesn't want to play - Jamal just killed his once promising career.

2020 the year of the crazy.  I wouldn't be surprised if he's traded before the start of the season, he is extended a massive contract, or he sits out with the Jets letting him sulk.

 

Anything can happen in 2020........except the Jets winning a  Super bowl.  (technically they can't until 2021))

The one in bold won't happen.  He either finishes out his rookie deal here or he gets traded well before that.  Nothing in between.  The clock is now ticking on his time here.

Pls, anyone who was sticking up for this fake, SPEAK UP NOW!

I have been a supporter of his but this changes everything.  I don’t know what I prefer. Do we trade his ass and get rid of him now, or make him ride out for two more years until all our options to keep him have run out, meaning Franchise Tag etc.  NO....let’s definitely get rid of his ass now!

^^^ Most predictable post in this thread.

[#27TheDominator]

This means absolutely nothing to me.  We all knew he wants out.  I don't care.  He'll play out his option and I will deal with him after 2021.  if he can broker a deal we like fine, but this doesn't change his price.  I don't care.

[choon328]

The pressure is off JD now.  Adams just gave him a way to move him without making the Jets look bad.  Especially if they can get a decent return.  I would assume the Jets have already received some preliminary contact from teams prior to today.  If they're going to trade him it'll be soon.

The funny thing is that's never changed at all, despite any complaints that have come about for those contracts... I wonder why that is?  Oh, because as soon as the players are actually in the league, they are all on board with actively looking out for themselves at the expense of their future teammates.  There are no innocent victims out there on either side of any of this.
