Saleh said Jets would keep the best 53 football players positions don't matter. Best 53.  Streveler has shown us that he is one hell of a football player and he's in the top 53. If he turns out to be a real good player for another team - which I think is possible - Saleh won't live this one down. I like Saleh but this could wind up being a colossal mistake.

The need for 4 QBs is what exactly?  
 

Playing well somewhere doesn’t mean he has to be our 4th either

This was expected. The jets have made it pretty clear that it’s ZW/Flacoo/MW for the year. 

Still think the jets are p*ssies for cutting this guy. The guy to cut was the 37 year old who has no chance of being the answer here long term. But that was never happening. 
 

 

They weren't going to cut a guy they guaranteed just shy of $3 million for the year.  White had the non-guaranteed deal...should have been him.

really makes you wonder now why they feel it nec to surround Zach Wilson with papa Flacco and Milk White, the 2 most non threatening you can come up with for what might be fragile psyche.  Or maybe they just afraid of Mrs Wilson.

Bud, I disagree with the cut, but this is a v big overreaction.  

This isnt a reaction. 

Simply pointing out exactly what happened in that building minute by minute. That's all.

I had heard from several well-sourced people on this very message board that Streveler would never make it to the practice squad. Good luck to him elsewhere. Seems like a good dude.

I gather that no matter how well Streveler played, he really didn’t have a shot to make the active roster ..unless one of Wilson, Flacco or White hit the injured list for an extended time (4-5 weeks +)

cuz he played “really well.”

I would think he’ll get picked up, no?

Ah………..lol, only in this forum with these fans does this topic (#4 QB cut) inspire such intellectual and impassioned debate, along with some great zingers, for multiple pages. Love it. Lol. 🤣

Ah...only time will tell I suppose, but I HATE when the NYJ cut 'football players' or as Bill Parcells called them "parking lot players'.

This 'kid' (same age as White) is more physically gifted than White...everyone knows what Mike White's ceiling is.  The backup QB who you always hope doesn't have to play any extended time.

Streveler can easily play that role too...and I bet he can be one of those swiss Army knife kind of guys also that Parcells loved.  Good teams find ways to work guys like Streveler into their game plan, kind of like Hill on NO.  Oh...and did I mention he'd save you almost $1.5 million on the cap if you kept him over White?

I just don't see good teams sign guys like Flacco to $3 mill guaranteed deals and then stick with physically limited #3 QB's rather than go with the guy with more potential....just MO, but I'm sitting at home typing this and not running the NYJ.
