RichardTodd27 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Wow. Good to hear that about Cager. Wonder who he has to beat out to make the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mogglez Posted July 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2020 The guy would have been a pretty decent prospect of he had stayed healthy throughout his collegiate career. He's also good friends with Sam, playing in a ton of high school all-star games with him. Word on the street is that the team wanted to draft him late, but took a gamble on letting him become a UDFA. They had a good amount of discussions with him before the draft and felt good about their chances of him just outright signing with them. 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jetster Posted July 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2020 I just love the fact that my buddy is a Miami Hurricane fan & a huge Dolphin fan and he said it made him sick to see the Jets land Cager as an UDFA. Said kids Redzone upside will be through the roof with Darnolds accuracy. 6-5", here, go get it son. 7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTJetsFan Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Good stuff! Thanks for posting. I think the knock on Cager (besides his injuries), was that he has small hands for a man his size. Fromm didn't exactly throw lasers so it will be interesting to see if he ends up "double catching" Sam's fastballs. One thing that jumped out at me after we signed Perriman (and in the clips of his 2nd half of the season with the Bucs) is that he seems to catch everything with this hands. He snatches the ball. Doesn't let the ball get to his body first or use his arms to cradle. I love when a WR does that. Hope he keeps it up with us. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you mean Vyncint Smith and not Jeff Smith. If that is the case I would think similarly. The problem is I have very little confidence Cager stays healthy. Not having a preseason mat actually benefit him in that respect. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0mShane Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 It would be kinda Gase-y to have Cager put together a bunch of good practices only to see the Jets sign a desperate Demaryius Thomas at the 11th hour, bumping Cager to the practice squad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he has a shot at being a #4/5 for redzone packages. Cager is more likely PS material in yr 1, but i would more than happy to see him take Josh's spot if he earns it. Seeing Perriman and Doctson listed in important spots on our Depth Charts is SMH material... we gonna call up AJ Jenkins and Jon Baldwin next? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElBarrioJets Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 It IS odd to see a position coach talk up a UDFA as a "1st-2nd rounder" in an offseason video on the eve of training camp like a fanboy draftnik though. Normally coaches keep their cards close. Maybe it's just Jefferson's way but it certainly sounds like Cager has an inside track to a roster spot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope the 4th DB we got from the Colts in the past calendar year is worth passing on those dudes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Every single year we hear about these type of stories.

AFJF Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Noticed him making a fair number of catches with a DB in his hip pocket or draped over him. Didn't get distracted and watched the ball all the way in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 That game was infuriating. Fromm was literally just throwing the ball up from grabs and Cager came down with everything. Just Chadwick Pennington-esque balloon on 3rd and long, 4th and long, closed his eyes, threw in the direction of Cager and bam! First down. I dont even think CJ played bad that game. Cager was just in the zone. The kid has incredible upside but there's a reason he went undrafted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
