Why not sit and wait until that happens and then you can rake a team over the coals for money. Hes not going to take any discounted rate right now. That would be dumb of him and his agent. Whoever gets Dalvin Cook is going to have to pay him and pay him handsomely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 10 hours ago, JETS SB said: Got it. So, the 3 years on his contract had nothing to do with the Vikings waiving him? Nope. Quote Anyone trading for him, would have had to pick up those 2 additional years and this year at 14 million. Also nope. Quote Why would any team give up anything, when the Vikings were obviously not going to pay him $43 million for the next 3 years. Well, no one did. The only reason is if someone was going to pay him in that $11MM range they may as well throw a conditional 7th at Minnesota to keep the guaranteed money down at $2MM. Quote I am not saying Cook is worth $11 million per season. But to say you dont have interest and are willing to let the Dolphins or Bills pick him up, makes no sense to me. And hopefully not to the Jets. They need to try and obtain him. I'm in the @#27TheDominator camp: I'd be ok with adding him, but not at anywhere near $11MM. If that's his pricetag, then yes let Miami or Buffalo pick him up; it's $11MM they won't spend elsewhere to improve their teams. $3MM? OK, sure, fine. $11MM? No. In between there? Depends on the number. Quote We didnt almost draft Gibbs in the 1st round, because we were ok with our RBs. Izzy is not the answer. He is a special teams guy with upside. Not a 3 down back. Rodgers has gone his career with 2 solid RBs behind him. We have Breece and he is coming off a bad injury. We need a legit 2nd back. Cook is. Seeing how they drafted WMD, it would seem they almost drafted Gibbs in the 1st round because it was a weak 1st round and in that case - rather than reach a bit for position - Douglas & company went pure BAP. As it is, they didn't have a need at edge this year, nor at TE, and those were the other two positions they were looking at once we were on the clock trying to get good value on a trade down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe the Presidential claim though. You have to imagine that as President you can do far better (I know she wasn't always in her 70s) particularly if paying for it (Trump wasn't President when he topped off Stormy). Swedish Bikini Team members would suffice (current, not former). I'd keep up the American end as a non married President for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbs is a completely different back then Cooks. They were thinking about lining Gibbs up all over the field and using him as a weapon. Cook is strictly a running back which we already have in Breece hall, who is also much better then Cook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The choice in the draft wasn't between Gibbs and Cook. They were in BAP mode. Normally I'm not in favor of that so early in the draft, but rather as the draft progresses & it gets harder & harder to predict which prospects are starters & which are future Schlegels. This year with the class being so weak up top, it's more understandable to go pure BAP almost without regard for position (e.g. specifically QB would've been ruled out, having just traded for Rodgers). This wasn't like Maccagnan taking a safety over a QB because his draft grade was 0.1 higher out of school. If they took Gibbs it's because - rightly or wrongly - he was the highest rated prospect on their board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BigRy56 Posted June 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 9, 2023 If the alternative is Cook going to Miami, I would be OK with JD offering 2mil over their offer to close the deal. Cook would give the Jets an elite RB rotation and Miami's glaring weakness outside of Tua's health is their run game. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love for Breece to come back day one, light it up, and not miss a beat. However, I wouldn't bet on it. I would presume that, even if he's back week 1, the idea isn't for him to carry the run game as a workhorse for at least a few weeks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breece is already hitting 22 mph in straight line runs and he is cutting already. He still has 3 full months till the 1st game.

I think he'll be a go week 1 as well but that'd be negligent to give him 20 plus touches. Since pre-season is a waste, I'd ease him back into the game the first 3 weeks.

Ypc in a steady decline the past 3 years. Cooks reputation is much better then his play on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
