Not sure that means much to Billionaires You gotta check your bank account. It’s not earning that interest. it’s at best 1 percent for the year or half a percent for 6 months. It’s 100k. that seems stupid for woody to fight over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman10023 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 9 hours ago, AFJF said: It has now been reported by multiple outlets that it's about offsets (which is idiotic) as well as the Jets wanting Wilson to defer his bonus money. Several teams pay out their top picks within 30 days of signing. The Jets want Zach to take part of it now and part of it next year. It's literally his money. Imagine you doing a job where you earn 10K and your boss says he'd like you to take 5K today and 5K 8 months down the road so that he can hang on to your cash for you. It’s literally the exact opposite. he’s getting paid the majority of his income right away before working. and by the way lots of office jobs have deferred compensation.

Jet2020 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 9 hours ago, Embrace the Suck said: Well, they did hire him, and then let him have one more FA and draft period knowing they were going to fire him. So there's that. If the Johnsons were telling JD to try to hold onto the money, yes, it would be their fault and it isn't convenient. This argument is senseless. If the Steelers do it, “it’s an organization’s decision not to cave in” and everyone claps. But if Jets do it, “the owners are greedy”. In other words, you’re saying a GM is a puppet. Why bother paying him millions then? Owners probably give their input on major moves. But not on nickel n dime decisions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it's your personal mandate in which case no one gives a crap. Tell me, what would you be satisfied with in terms of wins for this season? The schedule is easy, we only face 3 legitimate quarterbacks, we have a 9th home game, we have a neutral site game, and we face Tampa and Buffalo in the last two weeks of the season where they will most likely be resting their starters. I see 10 winnable games, maybe 12, and expect them to walk away with 8. How is that unreasonable? SAR I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAR I Do your research on the history of W-L record for rookie QBs in the past 20 years or so and get back to me. Sure it can be done and has been done on really good teams. I guess the Jets are a really good team in your eyes. I agree that they can be a good team. I have to see it first. And a winning record just doesn't play out often for starting rookies in the NFL. I won't be upset with fewer wins if the team shows regular improvement, desire and progress. Particularly at the QB position. I sure as hell won't be using a random cut off number as my end-all excuse to repeatedly atttack Douglas. Do you know it's boring already? Record time, even for you.

Saleh processprocessbrakegasbrakeadversityprocessprocess. Douglas not speaking to media. Woody calling Korn/Ferry. SAR I Yes, Mims is being shown by the coaches “ No free lunch” (honestly I find that cruel.) His draft status means nothing, like everyone else needs to earn his way. Bravo! Becton is a big softy with delicate feet. Coaches using vet with no pads on to humble him a bit, light the fire in his belly, learn how to play through it, basically galvanize that bitch. Zak was not used to tossing the Rock without rocking his sweet Gucci shades. Coaches install plays to show him he ain’t nothing but a rookie and put him in that place he was when he took the BYU QB position over to put up one of the greatest college QB performances in a bit. Positioning him to succeed, reminding him he ain’t nothing till he is! Miss practice? Twice? Bitch please!! This the NFL, this is NY. Let’s go!! Saleh is literally putting the fire to the balls of all these young guys he expects to be the backbone of his team. No free lunch, no rock stars, just a team of young guys who go “ All gas no brakes” of they GTFO! Reminds me of my childhood. “ Big Boned Joe “ ain’t got nothing to say. He’s in his office, wanting to get on the top rope and Jimmy “superfly Snuka” everybody. If he came out and did the obligatory “ we got work to do” Is power drive him myself into the floor myself . I respect the message he’s sending. Go hard BBJ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Action Zachtion Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Zach's start today shows JD isn't getting unfair treatment. This will be a small blip in the long run, but it makes me go hmmmm. He "won" a stupid battle but put himself closer to losing the war while doing it. Dumb dumb dumb. Also @SAR I 's interpretation of JD's time might be right. We have limited data but the circle jerks about cap space and not signing the teams best defensive player are questionable. Last year's draft isn't looking great right now. The contract negotiation made me see the negative view of JD might be the right one. Stepping over dollars to pickup dimes is SOJ stuff. I'd like to see the Jets stop being one of the league leaders in open cap space. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like what I am seeing but we are a 10 year in a row losing team basically and have become a bottom 3rd team. let’s see a team actually compete and then we can all blow smoke up JDs ass. right now, he owns a 2 and 14 record. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
