He just went 4-12 with the Texans. He’s not Aaron Rodgers enough with this hysteria already The Jets went 0-2 against the Dolphins with Fitzpatrick at QB. Watson isn't Aaron Rodgers. At Watson's age, Rodgers had 10,000 less passing yards, no winning seasons, 75 less passing TDs, a lower completion percentage, lower QB rating, and more interceptions per game. Also, much lower rushing numbers. And that's not to say that Watson is going to be a better QB than Rodgers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the picks they give up for Watson they wont be able to put a good team around him, plus hes never won anything. Watson to Miami = JETS dynasty babey ? We'd have just gone 4-12 forever with Watson! And to think we'd have missed out on the great Alex Leatherwood! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjasi Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Douglas can outbid Miami for Watson and it genuinely sounds like the Dolphins like Tua and want to stick with him. If Watson ends up in Miami, Douglas decided to let that happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlightBoyz Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The Jets are currently set up to create winning culture. They have assets & money.

rayzor Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 3 hours ago, nycdan said: You are making a very tenuous assumption that the Texans would see Tua as their QB going forward. I have no such sense that he's viewed that way. Removing him from the equation, our picks slightly trump MIA's. Everything really boils down to the fact that they probably need to bring in the QB of the future this season. It could be Tua. It could be the #2 pick. It could be the #3 pick. This is why I don't think CAR really has a chance unless there is a second trade up involved. I agree with this except the Panthers don't offer them a chance at a franchise QB either. Sure CMC is the best RB but he's much more easily replaced than Watson would be. That's why they would be even willing to include him in the trade package.

dcJet Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 It depends on the compensation. If JD doesn't bid and Watson goes to Miami for three firsts or less. Then he's committed GM suicide and we'll start a fire JD thread. If Miami beats our 3 firsts and Quinnen with like four firsts and Tua, then so be it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I don't see CAR being a threat at all unless they spin the #8 pick up to a top-3 pick (which means a trade with either MIA or NYJ). Otherwise, HOU has no certainty of getting either Fields OR Wilson. Could you see them offering the fans Mac Jones as the replacement for Watson?

Your the last person who should be calling anybody anything. Believe it or not, competition is a good thing. Has nothing to do with money. A lot of athletes are more interested in what they do as a player, and what they can accomplish on the field. On the field, he hasn't been pushed at all. This is according to you, because of the old men he had behind him. Flacco and Mccown.Still think Trevor is god. Mook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Fins are not shy with cutting their losses like the Browns have done over the recent years. That seems to be a better package than we could offer unless you go full Mike Ditka and trade away 4 1st's and a few players. Don't see or want to see JD do that. I'm really leaning with trading back, not to far, where we can draft one of Fields, Wilson, Lance. They all are young, raw and have similar skill sets. If we can trade Darnold and the #2 to Atlanta or Cincy, we could get a couple extra first rounders and a 2nd or 3rd in the least. I don't think they want Tua. The high pick will be for a QB and we can give them the choice of whom to pick. They will want to reset the QB clock. We have the better package to offer based solely on that. Also, they would look stupid to ship their best asset for the picks they traded away - a really bad look. Why more people don't talk about this is crazy IMO.

I would think with Watson and Allen in our division along with the Patriots always lurking, JD would probably go with the slow and steady approach of building a winning culture knowing we have little chance to compete in our division for several years. I can envision us keeping Sam and trading back the #2 for more picks. Any thoughts??? Some team will eventually trade for Watson. I think it will happen after the draft, during training camp, when Watson has not shown up, is paying his fines, and the Texas Religious Nut Case Front office realizes they have got no starting QB in house. Whatever team is the trading partner is probably going to punch a serious hole in its current and future talent to do so. I can't predict whether the price will go up or down. But if Miami decides to gut their roster and their future draft capital, that's just fine. They'll be a little better than Houston was last year because they have a coach, but that's about it. I worry more about our roster and who we draft and sigh as FA. I do NOT want to trade all out valuable draft capital, no matter how proven Watson is: he is best suited for a win-now team, not us.

So what if he's 3 years older than a rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He. Played for a team that tailor made the offense for his skillset. He played in a very weak division. I wouldn't gamble that 2 years down the road Darniold will be as effective with the Jet's as Watson would be with a Dolphin team. It's just not a sure thing as people seem to think it is. That is , with the Dolphins getting Watson, we would have no chance of competing with them or the Bills. Why we love the sport so much is that anything can happen, that before the fact we didn't think possible. Call me a starry eyed dreamer. Call me something worse. We're Jet fans. We have a very jaded view on anything positive that could occur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a different league, but Watson has more yards/game, more td/game, less int/game and a higher completion percentage, higher qb rating, better winning % than peyton manning through age 25.

New York Mick Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Laughs at them for giving up a ton of picks and watches them hang around in the bottom of the division because the rest of the team still sucks and they have no money or picks to fix it. When was the last time a big named player was traded for a bunch of picks and paid a bunch of money that it worked out for the team trading for him?
