Warfish Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 6 minutes ago, Plen T said: It’s good for this year but this guy is 35 next year they need to follow the Packer model and draft a QB early Ok. How does that equate to being a downgrade from Zach Wilson tho? Is it your belief that keeping Zach would mean we don't have to draft a QB in our near future? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 1 hour ago, Green Ghost said: $18 mil is a lot of scratch for Tyrod Taylor. Well it's "up to" $18MM, meaning if he doesn't start (or doesn't start much) his base is surely less than that. Otherwise? It's the Jets tax @Mogglez referenced yesterday. He's been a $5.5MM/year QB every year since 2019 across 3 different teams, and the injuries have only mounted up even more since then, with the lone exception being the year he wasn't used/needed (2022). He's a clear QB2 upgrade over Zach (or really, everyone/anyone on last year's roster). The obvious issue is his injury history suggests he'd only be a very short-term upgrade. So, OK if we need him for 1-2 games (or to finish a partial game or step in for a series or two), but any appearances beyond even two starts and you'd have to almost expect he'll leave the game early. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not when you consider another season hinges upon a 40+ year old recovering from an Achilles tear. Denial speak about the realities of this said he’d be back last year, I said a 40yo isn’t going to set the new recovery standard on an injury that takes 1-2 years to fully recover from. I was right. I think the Jets should 100% pay the price for a veteran than can step in, win some, and be the bridge to a young QB they draft this or next year. I have very little confidence in us ever seeing HOF caliber play from Rodgers. I hope to be wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Thornburgh Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 13 hours ago, PS17 said: Tyrod is made of glass and underwhelming even as a backup. But he’s an upgrade over Zach and Boyle, so I’ll take it I guess. To say he’s an upgrade is an understatement. Taylor is a hundred times better than Zach 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 1 hour ago, Matt39 said: Am I wrong for having preferred Huff back on the tag than spending on Taylor and Kinlaw? If you're not factoring in Zach Wilson being further away from ever taking a snap for the Jets again, no. But it's fair to feel underwhelmed by both guys as day 1 signings. Simpson I can dig but was there actually a market for either Taylor and Kinlaw? idk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets can never think rationally. Zach should have been cut last year and White brought back on the two year deal Miami gave him. Having a backup that wasn’t Zach was really all we need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashlite80 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Great signing. Let's cut through the bull. Taylor is a fine backup. Is he good if you need him for 10 starts? Maybe not, but unless you are paying a Minshew type, who is? We need the money for an OT. If Tyrod gets 2 starts and finishes a game or two, he will be just fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadFan Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Tyrod Taylor is now a complete disaster. If they do draft a rookie QB, the kid will be playing by week 2, way before he is ready.
