Breece was just coming back and B. He wanted to play with Arod Did we NEED Dalvin? No. We could of just kept using Carter and izzy but the Dalvin signing was more of a “cherry on top” kind of move and we hoped he had something left but he didnt. It was for 1 year. One. Not 4 or 5 like a first rd pick. I cant explain the Will McDonald pick because like everyone else, I was confused when the selection was made Dalvin made infinitely more sense then McDonald although McDonald might be a stud in our stash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a dopey move that turned out to be. His contract was up. I don’t know whether MC was going to be worth a second contract. His years 2 and 3 were not that great. Let’s see what it costs the Cardinals to keep him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He goes high end on a "just in case" scenario that Breece isn't quite ready to go, but goes low end on Rasputin's backup QB. Izzy was fine. No problem with that draft pick. But for what Miami paid Mike White, we could have kept him. Dogass doesn't even know how to prioritize his limited resources. Hell, he didn't even put any thought into it, this was Rasputin's idea, just like all the other busts he signed as FA's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He dosent deseve anyone defending him. I just HATE hindsight 20/20 sh*t like this from some fans. And Im not pointing you out or anything..i just remember the fanbase(jetnation, jets media twitter, jet youtubers) essentially saying the same thing about Cook before we signed him which was: Yes Dalvin Cook is probably trash. But why not have more weapons for Aaron? Its only for a year. That what alot of the fanbase from I seen were saying. And now that Cook is gone, it seems like everyone including the ones who were initially onboard are saying “see i told you so” For the record, I dont know what your initial reaction to the Cook signing was so like I said, not pointing the finger at you 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's painfully obvious at this point that whether you wanted Arodge or not, it was a huge mistake. He's not the savior. He's Neil O'Donnell. 2024 is going to suck bad. Dogass is a fraud, so is Salad. Anyone with an out, with a brain in their head, is going to "jet" the **** out of Woody World. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmhertz Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Elliot, Fournette would have contributed more, Zonovan Knight and Carter and Ty Johnson had better Jets moments. Izzy in the 5th another genius move has speed but shows no power or wiggle UDFA RBs Keaton Mitchell & Jaleel Mclaughlin are more dynamic backs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrcoops Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Most pointless signing of the season, as many fans warned at the time. $7M wasted, which could have bought us a quality backup QB or some OL or WR upgrades. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I didn't think Cook was that terrible. Some of this is on the blocking etc. like bad penalties mediocre Qb play that all added to making the offense ineffective. Izzy who probably will end up being OK also hasn't had any real standout performances and even Hall until recently was not having a great season. Some team who is in need of a RB in the playoff hunt might be interested in signing him cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SickJetFan Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 they cut Bam for this...Bam still could have gotten hurt and went on IR and still have been more effective than this douche I am still baffled how they cut MC w/o even trying to get anything back I think they are letting Woody's son make these decision at the beer pong table Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
