Butterfield Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Thats a great deal and doesn’t prevent them from drafting a center. He must have had NO other options. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby816 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Wow!!! Really leaves the door open still for us to go C and let them battle it out now and don't have to justify benching a guy getting paid a ton. That competition doesn't have to come from JMS, Tippmann or Wypler. It can even be a tier down from that and still make it an open competition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonkertons Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Jesus....weren't we estimating $10M a few months ago? That's absurd value. So low honestly that maybe we still do draft a C, tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now JD just needs to draft us a legit Center. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankiepapa Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 He was on with Pat Kirwan the other day... really good interview and seems like a good guy...happy to be back with the jets... said he's spoken to some other linemen who have previously played with Rodgers Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurntDice Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Signing starting centers at 2 mil, but yet people still want to draft one high smh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherwiseHappyinLife Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Great deal … but also shows he has some pretty big flaws in his game at Center. Happy to have him but prefer him as backup Center and potentially starting guard over Tomlinson if the latter continues to struggle. Believe McGovern’s greatest weaknesses (calling out protections & setting the tempo ) will be eliminated at guard. Now let’s draft someone nasty to start at Center. A high IQ and good anchor in the passing game. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy 2 Times Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 That contract tells me he’s the backup center and both guard positions after we draft one. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still believe it’s Center in round 2. IMO we are seeing a strategy to beef up the interior in case we need to shift AVT outside (if injuries occur) and because of Tomlinson. MCGovern, Schweitzer, and Colon all have Center/Guard versatility. AVT Guard/Tackle versatility. Tomlinson was too expensive to cut but we cannot risk our season by keeping him as a starter because of it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bungaman Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Maybe he signed for less because he doesn't want to move his family again, and that he likes it here. The devil you know is often better than the devil you don't. Moving is expensive, financially and mentally - if he has kids in schools that they like, that's also a part of the equation. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge4Tide Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 It's important to remember the Jets signed 2 veteran center/guards in free agency. Wes Schweitzer from the Commanders and Trystan Colon from the Ravens. Both are solid veterans. We also have Chris Glaser who was on the practice squad all year - the old regime seemed to like his upside. Remains to be seen if the new regime thinks as highly - but he is a possible center/guard option as well. Unless you are picking an interior offensive lineman who you think can start, we have more then adequate depth at center/guard and shouldn't use a draft pick on an interior offensive lineman. Now, if there's someone in the 2nd round you love, okay, fine 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought he was any good (can't figure out stunts, for one), but that's a great deal for the Jets. He's probably a better G than C. All this talk about AVT. If the Jets really think he can excel at OT, then just move him there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
