BigRy56 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I imagine that a lot of the restructures and extensions will start to break this upcoming week.

Lith Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Spotrac now has us at $20.4M cap space. Can probably get to $50M with a few cuts and restructurings. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/new-york-jets/cap/ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prodigal Syndicate Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Can't wait for QBs to get even more money! While RBs put their bodies on the line and are out of the league in 5 years getting paid pennies in comparison while carrying the offenses $60M a year for Kirk Cousins coming up 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhg1084 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 Sign Huff, MC II extension, a couple OL, a WR, Quinton Jefferson. Who else? Bring back Morested and Zurlein. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedin Green Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 That's good to hear, now go spend all of that plus more on the OL. Huff is still all but guaranteed to leave unless they free up enough cap to use the tag on him. Otherwise, he'll surely wait until he hits FA and even if the Jets want to bid, odds are high he'll get a better opportunity elsewhere. JD sealed that fate with back to back years of first round DEs. There are definitely plenty of places to free up space too, but we said the same thing last year and nothing was done by JD other than pushing dead money into future void years for many of those terrible contracts listed. Let's hope that's not the case again this year. Although it's kind of a joke seeing DJ Reed on that list. Only thing that would possibly happen with his contract is an extension for even more money with how he's played these past 2 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRy56 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 The dominoes will start falling now. Miami is 40mil over the cap with Christian Wilkins and Tua's new deal staring them in the face.

Countless examples of great RB’s barely helping win/loss records, while extremely few examples of great qb’s doing the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32EBoozer Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 RB's once again underpaid. Kids in HS & College will be looking to move to WR no doubt, but most RB's are short & stocky with big legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post slats Posted February 23 Popular Post Share Posted February 23 46 minutes ago, Rhg1084 said: Tagging Huff should be an option also at only $21m I expect the Jets to let Huff walk. The team sees him as a part time player, and they presumably drafted his replacement in the first round last year. They can’t franchise tag a part time player -especially a defensive player- when they still have so much to do on offense. They can’t tie up that much potential free agent cash. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 7 minutes ago, k-met57 said: why would we ever cut Mosley? we should for sure restructure him. The easiest thing in the NFL to find is an ILB that makes tackles. Mosley does not blitz, Mosley can't cover anyone. He makes tackles. You find Ilbs that can make tackles as cheap vet FA or mid to later round draft pick or later round trade. As for the over blown 'leadership' angle, a week after he was gone a new leader of the D would take over. People talk about restructuring as if Kramer was talking about insurance companies...'You just write it off!' You are pushing liaiblites for that player into the future, that is all you are doing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
