IT AINT HAPENNING. JD takes no prisoners. He's shaping this team the wqay HE WANTS. Signing players in their prime like Lawson and Davis to nice phat contracts and throwing a few bones to verterans to balance out the roster. Maye is NOT in his long term plans, It would be in Maye's and Jets best interest to trade Maye now to a contender that could benefit from his veteran experience and pay him closer to what he wants. And we'd get PICKS. You made my point. He lied, to get what he wanted. If you don't think that kind of strategy can backfire. Fine. I think it can. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You work for a company, your company tells you how valuable you are, and what a great leader you've been. All of a sudden when it's time to get rewarded, you get a dollar, and a skinny turkey at christmas. He’s making 11 million dollars this year and he will make even more than that if he’s tagged next year. That is nowhere near “a dollar and a skinny Turkey.” Maye plays a position that gets treated like the RB position. That’s the way it goes. The Steelers did this to Le’Veon Bell (Tag, tag, let him walk) and we learned the hard way that they were right to do so. Hopefully Douglas doesn’t make the same mistake Maccagnan did. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayes not that good, hes an OK S, nothing more. Players dont give a damn about or get involved in other players contract situations. Thats business, has nothing to do with playing football.

No, I think, like anyone else who watches football, make that sports, he goes where he can get the best deal. "it's my understanding that Darnold will be the QB here" means he understood that the 23 year old QB who was the starter the last three years was the QB back in March.

If it was up to them wed have Jamal Adams as the highest paid safety in the league and Sam Darnold locked up for the next 5 years at 35 mil a year. And we would have overpaid every overrated player in free agency this offseason and be up against the cap. We have the best young GM in the league crushing every move he makes. The Darnold lovers cant stand douglas and its hysterical. HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
