ptisme Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 2 hours ago, PepPep said: A couple of things. 1. OBJ is washed up, injury prone and plain sucks at this point in his career. No thank you. 2. ARod said he had a wishlist. Not a list of demands. I doubt if JD doesn't bring everyone he wants on board he will refuse to play for the Jets. JD already signed his top request, Lazard. This^^^. I honestly think you guys are going to be set at receiver. Why put double digit numbers into a “has been” wide out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corey Davis is likely to be cut or traded to make up the additional cap space needed. Salary cap is a myth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It never really occurred to me that the $8m needed to sign the draft class, is not what counts against the cap because only the top 51 contracts count. Basically, sign someone for $2m it hits for $1.2m because an $800k contract on the bottom of the list falls below that 51st threshold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JETS SB Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Wilson, Lazard, Moore, Mims (Davis will be cut) OBJ is not the guy you obtain, unless Moore is traded in the Rodgers deal. Otherwise, we need a KR/PR either in the draft or FA. OBJ is not worth it, for many reasons. Yeah maybe Rodgers wants him but we signed Lazard for him and we might still pick up Cobb on the cheap. That’s enough. We have many other holes to fill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want OBJ if Corey Davis is gone because once we have Aaron Rodgers we are in it to win it, and I want depth at WR in case some guys miss time due to injury. Look at the Rams when they traded for OBJ. They lost Robert Woods right after getting him. They wouldn't have won the Super Bowl in 2021 without the depth they had at wide receiver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not exactly a genius ploy. Ask for an embarrassingly number and then accept much less than embarrassing demand, but probably more than what you would have got if you didn’t first embarrass yourself. Worked well for Daniel jones ha. Green Bay is employing same strategy with Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His antics make him toxic, especially in a young WR room. In all fairness it takes a few years for these guys to mature. Can’t say obj is going to cause lockeroom issues or not. But if he still wants to play and isn’t injured he’s at least worth looking at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wit Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 The players scream collusion, but GMs have players valued around the same area and may low or high ball a little depending on situations or cap. Players are getting greedy because the QBs make so much damn money. Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue we'd have 3 WRs ahead of them anyway so I'm not sure it's a huge concern. The bigger concern would be if we decided to play older WRs over better younger players. I'd understand if this was the case early on in the season when the chemistry isn't quite there but Wilson/Lazard/Moore should be the featured 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd understand if this was the case early on in the season when the chemistry isn't quite there but Wilson/Lazard/Moore should be the featured 3 With Wilson, Moore (rejuvenated with a real QB), and Lazard , why do the Jets need any of these senior citizens. I'm assuming Davis is cut or traded. Mims becomes a #4. Older experienced veteran WRs are generally overpaid and under perform. Why spend (more) money on this position? All these signings/trades would do is deplete the cap, use draft picks on a position that is not needed, and as you mention, take reps away from more deserving young players. It makes absolutely no sense to a knowledgeable fan of the game. For the Madden crowd though, these are "names" that they feel we "must have" and these fans think they are getting the players from 3-4 years ago and not the current versions. Why pay $10-20 million for a #3 or #4 receiver who will catch 20-30 passes in 2023? How does that make sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not leave much for the rest of the roster. We already have a number one receiver. Are you operating under the impression that OBJ would be a number one receiver for any team?
