Apparently Jets offered more money than Dallas, but Neal elected to join the Cowboys.

Oh well...can't win them all.

No, but winning more than 2 might have helped.

[joewilly12]

JD missed out on Golladay and Neal today...............who needs these bums.

He’s good. That’s a huge overpay though, considering the rest of this market.

Basically 8 million. There is where we were out of the race at.

Who would you pick?  No brainer.

Where did you read that?

Several posts on twitter, I'll see if I can find them again.

Said that the Jets offered more money and multi years, but Neal opted for the 1-year at less money for another shot at FA next year.

I know what we should do so this never happens again.  Never bid on players and they will never choose another team instead of us. 

It is free agency.  The player chooses where he wants to go.  You bid on players and sign some, others go elsewhere.  The player is in control.

That's not what I was suggesting.  My point is that whenever we hear that "the Jets are talking to someone" or "player X is decided between the Jets and Y," it has almost always turned out the Jets don't get that player and my belief is that the Jets were being used to get the price up.

We didn't hear a peep about Corey Davis.  Signed.  We didn't hear anything about the Jets being in negotiations with Carl Lawson.  Signed.  That's because Joe runs a tight ship.  When I heard the Jets were "talking to JuJu" I knew 100% we weren't getting him.  When I heard the Neal was deciding between the Jets and Cowboys I posted here immediately that I thought this was another case of an agent floating that his client was talking to the team (Jets) with the biggest checkbook.

It just seems to be how things work right now.  I think our next signing will come out of the blue too without the players agent floating anything about discussions.

[Untouchable]

Not really sure why we were dicking around with Neal anyway.

Especially with Maye, Davis and Joyner all in the fold.

As far as obtaining a weakside LB, take someone like Pete Werner or Cameron McGrone in the 3rd round.

CB should be our highest priority to close out FA. Go grab Fuller and either re-sign Poole or bring in K’Waun Williams to play the slot. And maybe bring in a cheap young RB like James Conner to add to the committee.

At least the Giants got their young QB a WR1.

Just great. Now I get to hear the super bowl proclamations.

Exactly, so the people saying JD can’t finish are, per usual, doing it prematurely. Hey, I think there’s been a few really logical moves and opportunities to fix the CB and C spots that JD didn’t jump on, but I’m not going to act like this move didn’t make more sense for Neal & the Cowboys as it did for us. Especially @ 8 million.

2021 FA has been reasonably decent. They’ve done a good bit even if fans can’t seem to acknowledge that without flashy names being attached to these decisions.

I agree with this.  100%. 

But this is also a much different resposne than "Joe was used again."

Still feel we are gonna sign Clowney. And maybe Fuller, or Jackson.

I was hearing all winter that the Giants were in cap trouble and be basically non participants in FA while we were going to be a big player.  Now here they are spending money like drunken sailors and JD nickel and dimes everyone.

[win4ever]

Really hope we go after a CB at some point.  Need some stability back there, and then focus on OL.

If we can get Clowney on a cheap one  year "prove it" deal fine, but the guy has fallen off a cliff the last two seasons.  Agree on the CBs.  Have to add some experience.  Would love to see Poole come back and add an experienced guy on the outside. 

 

[Greenseed4]

Just sign a slot CB, and trade for Danielle Hunter.  

The rest can be sorted out in the draft.

Fair point.

"The Jets were used again"

It's not entirely their fault.  If you're an agent negotiating with a team for your client the best thing to do is getting rumors floating that the team with the biggest wallet is also interested in your client.  That's the Jets this year.

I think the extra 3 million to sign was the sticking point & that’s simply all this one was. I imagine JD offered around what he did for the Lions LBer. 5.5-6 million. Again guys, Neal is getting 8 mill in total, zero taxes, better team, in the weakest division in the entire NFL.

this one is easy.

Get me Kyle Fuller or Steve Nelson & I’ll be happy. Bless & Hall aren’t horrible, it’s just you can’t only go into the season with them, you need one sure fire dependable CB to counter the WR1’s in not only the NFL, but in the AFC East. You can’t put Bless on Diggs or Parker two games each and feel good about it.

Sure you can draft one reasonably high but do you still feel good with a rookie covering them?

That’s their #1 need at this very moment.

Totally agree with your thought about our need to get Kyle Fuller. Although his play reportedly dropped off last season. Anyone know what his asking price is ? I think I read that when the Bears were looking to trade him , that his 2021 salary was around $14 million.

Saw this AM that Fuller has not been released yet.  But even if he is, I think it will be tough to keep him away from Vic Fangio in Denver who reportedly would be in on him.  Fango was his DC in Chicago.  

 

[BigRy56]

Go after more pass rushers. Sign or trade for a good one and then go get a stop gap in Richard Sherman to teach the system.
 

Time to take a different approach in the draft, let’s pressure the QB to make lesser CBs look better

I have a hard on thinking about the first time a paid Golladay opts to sit out a game because of a balky hamstring and someone asks Joe Judge for a comment

Yeah, my best guess is that’s where he’ll wind up going. Steven Nelson is a top 10 CB and only 28 years old. That’s an interesting route but the pick would probably be higher than some guys are comfortable giving. I’d try to get him for a 3rd this year and maybe a 5th next year.

On cue.

Expect him to be a Bronco. Would love for him to be a Jet.

I’m sure he’s interesting in contending though.
