fatcatxl Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Faneca, Woody, Ellis, Jenkins, Jones, Coles. Those are the only players that we really need to worry about due to age right now. Jenkins is only on there cause he's a large, large, man and 29 x 360 lbs isnt the same wear and tear as a normal person. Barton too, but I consider him to be gone already. Revis, Rhodes, Washington, Harris, Cotch, Pace, Mangold, D'brick. It's not exactly we dont have any relatively young players to build a core around.

JustInFudge Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I think most people feel that way because of the spending spree we went on last season and the players were brought in were all vets....Favre, Richardson, Woody, Faneca, Pace, Jenkins. Those were win now moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SayNoToDMC Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Cause we spent about 140 million in contracts on those aging players and put ourselves in cap hell last season . We're not exactly in rebuilding mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatcatxl Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 pace is 28, jenkins 29. The Jenkins move looks pretty damn spiffy, and though Pace may have been overpaid it's not like the front office thought we'd only get 2-3 years out of him. A youngish player to be a main part of our defense. faneca probably has 3 good/decent years left. woody 2? Replacing Woody wouldn't be horribly expensive. It's not like replacing an all-pro. Serviceable tackle. Favre was def. a win now mode, but it's not like him being gone takes out our core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyHector Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 The Jets need to be in win-now mode, because they haven't won **** in my lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowmoe57 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Because to say we are in a lose now mode just doesn't flow off the tounge as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECURB Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Every team in the NFL is in a win now mode... some just work out better than others.... (see Cards 08', Giants 07') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Jet Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I think most people feel that way because of the spending spree we went on last season and the players were brought in were all vets....Favre, Richardson, Woody, Faneca, Pace, Jenkins. Those were win now moves. Exactly right. With the big bucks spent on free agents last year we have a narrower window to win than other teams. That's probably why they brought in Favre last year. It just didn't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachEY Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Because it's better than being in the lose-now mode we've been in for my career as a Jets Fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jets Voice of Reason Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Because it's better than being in the lose-now mode we've been in for my career as a Jets Fan. Last offseason made us a veteran team. Our second and third year players have matured. There's no reason why we should expect a losing season this year and a winning season in 2 years with the same roster. The window on the current roster is steadily closing, not opening.

BwanaZulia Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Because "win later" never works. You rebuild through the off season every year in the NEW NFL. There are no more 3 year plans. No more multi-year rebuilding. You try to put the most competitive team, with the most player depth on the field every year and make a shot at the playoffs and Super Bowl.
