Tyreek Hill on the Block-Jets Involved. This is not a drill

[NIGHT STALKER]

So, whether you wanted Hill or not, JD more than ever better nail the damn draft!

[Origen]

Yeah, but they are coming off a lawsuit for tanking, a new first-time head coach, and Tua, so other than the weather and taxes I'm not sure what the draw is.

Is there a reason everyone seems to think living in the NYC/North Jersey Metro area is a total sh*thole?  I lived there, it's pretty nice.   People sign to play in Buffalo.- That place is a sh*thole. Why wouldn't they want to sign here? NYC is the greatest city in the world!  When the Jets win, those players will become WorldWide celebs! Not just national.  Worldwide because everything matters more in NYC.  I don't see why guys sign to play anywhere else.

Well, economically, it makes a lot more sense to play for a team in Florida than NY state. Then there is the fact that a lot of people like warm weather . . . 

Beyond that, I don't think it's really about location. The Jets have been losers for a long time. I think the Jets have to figure out how to develop a winning program from their own homegrown talent before they get players like Tyreek Hill. 

[Grandy]

They gave up a lottt more than I thought. 

[SomebodytoAnybody47]

Douglas needs to approach every single team about their WR1.

Get it F'N done already.

Dolphins got fleeced, well you know we are defo drafting a WR in the 1st.

The question is now, if they love one of the wrs do they risk having him not be there at 10.

[GangGreened]

Good riddance

lock it up

[Larz]

J!

Thank God! In the end we will find out that he never wanted to come to New York, he always wanted to go to Miami

You're thankful that Tyreek Hill just got traded to a divisional opponent.

Do you realize how stupid that sounds? I mean, c'mon.

[HawkeyeJet]

Well, have fun with Tua Pennington catching 3 yards screens for 3 years.

[Jet2020]

Hill will want 30 mil plus. Hope he gets 35 mil and Tua implodes, causing Hill to go off on the fine Dolphins management. 

[DoubleDecker]

Man the pressure on Douglas in this draft is at an all time high after this one

[shuler82]

Any smokescreen that the Jets won't be drafting a WR in the 1st round just got blown up.

Hill is from Florida.

DK Metcalf maybe is who they might pivot to if Seattle is continuing their fire sale.

This. We don't have to give the Chefs what they want, we only have to offer more than the Fish.

Compensation has already been agreed to, at this point it’s on Hill to decide where he wants to play.

[mrcoops]

Jets had the ammo to easily outbid the Dolphins on trade compensation (and probably did) but the Chiefs let Hill choose, and he chose Miami.

Can't say I'm sad, given the character concerns. It will be tough to face him twice a year, but it's just one more reason to hate the Dolphins.

Are you suggesting it's JD's fault they didn't get him?

MIA trading away their picks before the NFL can take them away for tanking.

No to Moore.

Only if it’s Wilson I can see Atlanta in-for him.

Jets haven’t made the playoffs in what, 12 years?  That’s why.

[IndianaJet]

woah....

 

[Paradis]

4 yrs 120 million, 1 and 2nd round picks. 

that doesn’t smell like Douglas move.

Until we trade for Metcalf....or at least try before he chooses to play for the Generals in the new USFL instead.

Not necessarily. It just means that's how highly the Jets valued Hill. Might not be the case with the other receivers in the draft

Oh lord.  $30M/year?  This offseason is getting outright weird.

He didn’t get ANYONE

AFC is in a massive arms race and he’s not even remotely interested in competing 

[prime21]

Everyday there is a protest somewhere in the city.  Can we start up a no taxes in NY protest????

[Bruce Harper]

Now I will convince myself that I'd rather have the picks.

have you seen the Jets try to defend a screen? Tyreek Hill will have 600 yards receiving on screen passes against the Jets alone this year.

We can’t sign stars can’t trade for stars can’t draft stars

yep. 

 

I wouldn't go to the Jets, either. And I love the Jets. 

The Jets have to show us something first.
