Popular Post Lith Posted July 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2021 Just going to wait and see how this plays out over the next 48 hours. Sounds like his agent is leaking this stuff - I don't like when players/agents negotitate in the press, but that is what seems to be happening. Deal may still get done -- a lot can get done in the next two days. Not going to sweat it either way. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SR24 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I like Marcus Maye but I would also like to know where he buys his drugs because if he thinks he’s getting 13 to 14mil a year at the age of 29 they must be pretty damn good 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have not been paying attention to how Joe D operates if you think he has any intention of signing Maye to a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also feel like JD has shown very strong discipline throughout his tenure here, so I don’t feel like those kind of tactics are particularly effective. Seems like they have a number in mind and aren’t willing to budge from it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now their hands are clean because, "They offered but Marcus did not take it". Because Maye is a leader and has been here awhile, you have to put on this charade. But Joe D has 0 intentions of giving maye a long term deal and he is 100% correct in that. We have 5 picks in the 1st 3 rounds next year to draft a kid younger, cheaper and better then Maye. It would be moronic to give maye a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Joejet Posted July 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2021 JD drafted 12 safeties this year. Maye would have to sign a team friendly deal to go past this year. You save your cap space for OL, QB, DL, CB, and pass rushers. The other positions can be replaced with draft picks and low cost free agents. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe W. Namath Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 So the franchise tag for Maye is 10 mil. Rapport is reporting we offer 20% less then that per year. So does anyone here think offering Maye 8 mill a year was a serious offer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KRL Posted July 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2021 No surprise, if Maye was looking for any deal over 3 years Douglas wasn't going to bite. At 28 it makes too much sense to tag Maye twice for around $22 million and then let him go. Tough business 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampering charges incoming? I’m sure those teams will be thrilled with Erik Burkhardt blowing up their spot. I don't think it's tampering because teams can offer Maye a contract under the franchise tag but they'd have to give up first round picks if the Jets don't match the offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurnleyJet Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Smart move, Mayes a good player, but was an old rookie. Franchise him for the next two years then cut bait. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sec101row23 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 This is the problem when you are a 24 year old rookie, by the time you are no longer under team control you are 30 years old. His value takes a hit due to his age. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 3 hours ago, Jetluv58 said: Would hate to lose him. Solid player. We need all the good ones we can get! He's also 28 (turns 29 in March) and no better than the 4th best Safety from his draft class. Two important considerations when negotiating. No reason we absolutely need to lose him after the 2021 season, either. Tag him again in 2022 and effectively you'd end up having given him a 2-year extension. He'd still end up a relative bargain that year given how low top Safety salaries are compared to other positions. Then you let him hit free agency, by which time he'd be 30. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that's what good GM's do. Lie. Remember when Douglas wanted Jamal Adams to be a Jet for life? And how the plan was for Darnold to be the team's QB in 2021? Why do some people always seem to have a problem with this when it comes to Douglas? Do they not want the Jets to be a well run organization or something? 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not "nickel and diming" if the 2 sides are several million per year off in their negotiations. And yes, EVERY player needs to be nickeled and dimed in this business. Unless the salary cap goes away that will always be the case. Generous franchises are bad franchises. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECURB Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 He will regret holding out or not performing at 100% this year… then no team will pay him.

Ghost Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I wouldn’t mind holding on to Maye but he doesn’t deserve being paid like a top 5 safety. Good for JD. We have a guy who seriously understands the game of football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
