Dalvin Cook Trade ?

[JETS SB]

We have to think Breece might be slow to start the season and our window with Aaron Rodgers might be just a couple of years.  Why not give Breece that extra time to recover and bring in Dalvin Cook in on trade, a premier RB, dual threat, who only likely has 1 or 2 years left? Not getting paid a ton. 

Likely won’t cost us much and could be the missing piece in this offense that has little behind Breece other than a rookie and Michael Carter. 

If we are truly all in for this year, don’t we need to solidify the RB position with Breece coming off a major injury? 

[bonkertons]

I’m pretty sure that’s why they drafted Izzy.  We’re already without a 1st/2nd as well as our 6th or 7th from Clark. I’d rather hold onto our picks and see how this group does. If they suck, you can always make a move early in the season. I highly doubt they’ll suck though. This looks like a really strong group. 
 

btw let’s not count out Carter just yet. Dude looked like a high end 2 his rookie year. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him bounce back in a much improved offense. 

[Darnold's Forehead]

Looking like Minnesota may cut him post June 1st, but I don't see them moving Carter or putting Knight on the PS to make room.

The Jets drafted this guy for that... No Need for a trade...

 

[Joe W. Namath]

The last thing Joe Douglas would do is trade for Dalvin Cook.  This is the best young. gm in the game.  Hes not trading picks and picking up the salary of a rb whos body is 5 years older then his actual age.

Stop it fellas.

Weren’t you killing him 10 days ago for the Rodgers trade?

Izzy is a change of pace RB. Is not a receiving back or a blocker. Maybe he can be taught but if we are relying on him to be a dual threat, we are going to be disappointed. I love Izzy. I know the kid. He’s going to be fun. But he is raw and will likely be used minimally on offense this year.

He’s on his 8th offseason personality. The guy you’re referring to was his 5th or 6th.

I disagree, Izzy will be used much more than you think, he can catch much better than what is being put out there, as for blocking, he'll be Rodgers' safety valve... Again, ZERO reason/need to trade for a rb... ps Izzy & Breece Are Very Similar & Had very similar last year stats...

[More Cowbell]

We have bigger needs than RB

Counting on a 4th round draft pick to do anything impactful.  Even a RB would be a massive mistake.  Especially in an all-in year.

Signing Cook would make a ton of sense.

He’s due over $10M this year. I don’t think the Jets would put in a waiver claim on him if he were to be cut, they’re not trading anything away to pay that salary to a RB. I’m not too concerned about Breece or the Jets’ RBs too much, anyway. 

[jtomm]

no.. we have izzy   ?

[Barton]

Love how people are already acting like Izzy solves the RB issue. He's a total unknown. He looks good but I also dont see a guy with juke/wiggle moves, to be fair. 

Dalvin Cook would be a damn good move if the price is right. I'd rather get a #1b WR opposite Garret Wilson though.

I know the Jets FO thinks that 1b is Corey Davis ... but why ???

Because they aren’t that smart and rarely foresee future issues on the team.

Running back issue?  Hahaha.  There is no rb issues.  We have one of the best in the game whos on track to be 100% to start the season.

Though I do agree w/ u on ur 2nd point.  Joe D blew it by passing on JSN.

100% correct!! Literally since they took over the concept of a competent #2 QB has never crossed their mind. Still hasn't. Kinda terrifying.

What, exactly, is the RB issue? 
 
Breece isn’t even 22 years old yet. Young people generally recover faster. He was hurt in the 7th game of the year last season, opening day is ten months removed from that date. Nowadays an ACL typically takes about 6-9 months. All reports have Hall on or ahead of schedule, with many of those reports gushing about how well he’s doing. 
 
I know that Carter and Knight didn’t have stellar numbers last year, but you have to factor in the fact that the OL was decimated and when AVT ended his season in the same game as Hall, the running game was basically over. And with no one behind center, defenses stacked the box against that makeshift line. Weaknesses there are way overblown. In fact, if Becton can remain healthy, the running game should be significantly improved. They added another productive speedster in the draft to an already good RB room. They’re gonna be fine. 
 
Oh, they also upgraded at QB a little bit. That might affect the play calling and defenses a tad.

There is no rb issues.  Jets fans want to put a healthy Breece Hall on ir to start the season.  Its insane.

Breece is getting 20 carries out of the gate and will be fantastic as he always is.  Full go from week 1.

You dont know that. 

[Dcat]

Jets don't need an expensive Cook. This is why Izzy was drafted. 

[Barton]

Lets keep passing on probowlers like Odell and Dalvin Cook. Explosive players? Nah. 

We have Corey Davis and a bunch of 5th rd pick running backs.

Unless there is a setback, we do know that.  He looks fantastic as is on target to be full go week 1.

Bam, Carter, and the rook have rb covered until Breece is back to full steam.

Yup. Having OBJ and Cook would give the Jets a great offense- if this was 2017.

I'm not saying he can't be good.  Surely he might turn out to be special.

But I can also add to your list - 100's of 4th round RB's that weren't very good at all.  Pointing to a handful of successful doesn't make my point wrong.

Again..

Counting on a 4th round RB to have an impact on an all-in year is a mistake.

I hope JD is looking to add to the team (WR and LB), but RB isn't a worry.

He's fourth string.  You can't have vets four deep at every position.  Rookies have to be counted on.

That may be the case-but go and read this thread. 

Fans here are talking like he's going to carry Hall's load while he continues to rehab.  

I mean Bam and Carter - might be enough.  I don't know.

But if you're counting on any 4th round rookie - then you do not have a good team or GM.

[SomebodytoAnybody47]

Don’t need a running back. We’ll be throwing 6TDs per game at a minimum.
