Only issue I have is the draft picks. Had our 22 draft didn't go so well, I wouldn't even be against that. And fuq Woody Johnson's money.

slats Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 10 minutes ago, bla bla bla said: What's your preferred route for QB next year? Lamar/Rodgers or you thinking a different path? If they’re intent on holding out hope for Zach, Rodgers is probably the best choice. He’ll cost less in draft compensation and, while Aaron is no natural mentor, Zach should at least learn some via osmosis. One thing that irks me about Rodgers is that he’s talked about coming back and winning another MVP rather than another Super Bowl. That doesn’t sit well. To me, Carr is the ultimate wheel-spinning move. He is not a championship QB, but he’ll cost as much as one. He’s Cousins, who I also never wanted. I get that both of those guys are a lot better than anything the Jets have had in a while, but all I see that guy bringing is higher stakes disappointment. Like Cousins winning 13 regular season games then getting bounced in the first round. I know a lot of fans just want to get to the playoffs, but I’m really not interested in getting in unless they’re a genuine contender. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScarletKnight89 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I don't see many better solutions for the Jets right now than Carr. I don't consider Rodgers or Brady realistic options. I think it's a decision between Carr or Jimmy G. Both are instant upgrades for the Jets over what they currently have. Someone has to play the position.

Yea I agree Rodgers would appear to be the best route if they think Zach can pan out. Gives you the best QB for the lowest price comparatively + the FAs it brings. You could in theory solve (for this season) QB, LT, WR2, and backup slot. This ignores any discounts players take to make a ring chasing season happen. And allows you to miss out on the top 3 OTs in a worst case scenario kinda way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its amazing that top tier talent, or talent clearly superior to anything we have or had is dismissed with a saltiness only a real life miserable taint of a person could have. Can't see how anyone could not question what it would cost to obtain LaMarr Jackson in regards to his availability to play becauise of injury. His current injury may require off season surgery.

The Stafford comparison is an interesting one. I think it's a bit of a reach, but probably within the realm of possibility. That Rams team went all in with him two years after they lost in the Super Bowl and he got them over the hump to a Super Bowl win. Not like they went 7-10 to SB, it was a down 9-7 year off a Super Bowl run to the Super Bowl. And then last year they completely fell apart. If we reach a little more then the Wilson/Flacco/White->Carr impact is bigger than Goff->Stafford so maybe it's an extra jolt. Feels like if all goes well Carr gets the Jets to like, the Wild Card or Divisional round and then the team collapses. I think that's a win for some fans and not a win for others, which is probably part of why he's so polarizing for the fan base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be a mentality among some that if you can't get a potential top 5 QB, then don't even bother to upgrade the position. For 3 straight years, we have had the worst ranked starting QB in the NFL. Having a middle of the road starter is still a huge improvement over what we have seen recently. And it does not preclude us from continuing to try to find & develop that top 5 guy in future years. 3 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe bucket it into: trade serious draft capital for a quarterback who's won a MVP (Rodgers/Jackson), acquire a veteran quarterback upgrade without giving away significant draft capital (Carr/Garoppolo/Tannehill), chase upside on the FA market with a relatively unproven player (Minshew/Mayfield/Darnold), draft a quarterback till you find one (I'm ignoring the Brady scenario here) and pair each with happy making the playoffs or Super Bowl or bust. I'd guess most of the happy making the playoffs folks fall into the Carr/Garoppolo/Tannehill tier (even though I imagine nobody actually wants Tannehill).

Popular Post maury77 Posted January 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2023 I think it depends on what you are hoping to get from Carr. What I want is a competent vet at QB who the Jets can make the playoffs with over the next 2-3 years so they can choose their future QB next year and let him sit and learn for a season. In that scenario, I think Carr is a great fit. If you are looking to solve your QB position for the next 5-10 years or you want to make a Super Bowl run next year, Carr won’t provide you that. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The timeline is also interesting regarding Super Bowl run. You've got Wilson and Gardner on rookie deals for four more years, three for Hall and AVT. They really only need to pay Quinnen Williams. Next few years is a nice little window. A QB on a rookie deal probably expands that window a little too. Would be very Jets-y to blow the window to make the playoffs a couple times and then collapse when the window's closed. Also this is now consecutive years that the divisional round in the AFC has featured Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, and a fourth team. This year the fourth team was led by Lawrence. In the NFC I think you can sneak by with a mid-level QB and a good team around him. The AFC? Not so sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
