Just pointing out that it wouldn't be the worst thing for the Jets for pro sports to hit the reset button until 2021. I don't understand why my point is so hard to grasp? A team with a ton of new faces with limited practice time will be hurt more than teams with continuity. If the season happens as planned, we're not going to know what we really have with this team until about Week 6, at earliest. I'm not saying anything extreme here.

Anyone seen that player? Under the current PI enforcement, and how big hits are basically banned so the Ronnie Lott over the middle clobbering is illegal, and since Adams has almost no turnovers, the multiple occasions when he's been a "true game changer", when were those? And the Niners if they gave Adams an extension would probably have to at some point jettison Kittle. Does that make any sense to them? Disagreed with the bold. TEs, even elite ones, come cheap in this league. They can keep Kittle and still afford some pricey players. The losses for them to make room for Adams would come on defense (Dee Ford), not offense.

I'm not going too argue how it happened, I'm only celebrating that it finally happened. It's quite the rare feat that we pull the trigger on not only one of the draft boards favorites, but land the other while picking up extra picks. This draft will end up better than the Brick/ Mangold draft. And then many will cry hindsight three years from now....it's a given. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamal Adams is a top tier NFL player. I like it when the Jets have good players like him. It doesn't happen nearly as often as it should. The only reason he gets so much attention from people like myself is mouth breathers like you and T0m Shane can't stop posting hate about him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
