Jetster Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 15 hours ago, T0mShane said: I’d so much rather use this season to look at Cager and George Campbell than Doctson anyway. Also, if either of them wash out, opens up space for Demaryius Thomas. Vincynt with a Y too. I think with Cager & these other young guys Doctson saw the writing on the wall & opted out before the Turk did it for him. I really wasn't expecting anything From him anyway, and this 16 game preseason is the perfect year for us to find some diamonds in the rough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetster Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Also, wasn't Cager already getting praise by one of our WR coaches? Doctson was fighting for the last spot in the WR group, with some guys that already know the playbook, and youngsters with a lot more athletic ability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope the Jets go after him for that advanced money since he WON'T make the team next year. Really disappointed in him. Here was perhaps his last chance to have an NFL career and he grabs some quick loot and runs away. Sad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I agree with everyone who thinks Doctson wasn't going to make the team, anyway. I had Crowder, Perriman, Mims, Berrios, Vyncint Smith, and Berrios as near locks with Cager the favorite for the 6th spot before this announcement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must really like Berrios, as you have him making the team twice.

Robby is a talented, but limited, player. That fact that his FA market was so slow, and he had to opt for $20M over 2 years from his old college coach, pretty much confirms that other NFL teams have a similar view of his worth as the Jets did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy really struggled to stay in the lineup last year and even when he played, he was often less than 100%. Nobody knows that better than me. But when he was in the lineup, we were a different team offensively and Jake Fromm was a much better QB. Given the injury history, I would not have wanted to spend a pick on the guy, but as a UDFA, I am rooting for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great athlete who could help out at WR, RB, on specials and maybe even as an option QB if needed. He's definitely a contender for that final spot too.

The rare Maccagnan pickup that Gase seemed warm to. I wonder if Cager will add anything on specials which might be an issue for him depending on who else they carry.

Wonderboy Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 22 hours ago, derp said: Agree with those who didn't think Doctson was making the team. I also think depth is less the Jets' issue at WR than top end talent. Lots of WR4-6 types. George Campbell will be a superstar because the Jets are due, everyone is talking about Cager, and I said so. George is a dark horse. He’s got speed, size, hands. If not for injuries, this guy would have been easily drafted by the third round. You just don’t find guys with his physical skills get looked over. He’s very similar to Mims. Can just overpower DB’s with his size and knows how to track the ball well. I’d prefer to keep both Cager AND George. That’s 4 WR’s who are 6’4 or taller - Mims, Perriman, Cager, George. That’s a nightmare in the red zone and 3 of the 4 are blazers. Don’t sleep on this sleeper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. And it would support the idea of letting him walk. Let's let Gase get the guys who are smart enough to understand whatever he is trying to get going then. We'll have the smartest team in the league. That UDFA Hilbers was nicknamed the professor by his teammates. So there's that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
