Different situation and all, but trading Abraham was a key part of our 2006 rebuild.

That being said, I don't want to trade Adams. We can allocate the resources we already have on the OL without sacrificing another part of the team.

This is a great comparison, actually. I think the difference with Abraham was that he cared more about getting paid than winning, and he was hurt a lot. If I remember correctly he skipped the playoffs while Pennington was out there with his arm falling off trying to will us through the games. So while he played an important position, he was less reliable and less of a leader to commit that much money and years to. The fact that we turned him into Nick Mangold (I think) was a rare stroke of luck for this franchise. Would have been interesting if he was still here when Rex got here. #KeepRex

Unless Jamal turns into more of an Abraham than a Keyshawn I think trading him is nuts. The idea is to add top young talent, not to get rid if it. 
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.

Wasn't the strong rumor also that Abraham wanted to play in Atlanta, and the Jets were trading him to get value for him before he walked freely?

Adams has flat out said he wants to not only stay, but help lead this team to a Lombardi. He gives 100% on every single play. By all accounts, he works just as hard in practice as in-game.

You keep guys like that. They're foundational players and you build your team around them.

Pretty interesting trade history for Abraham's career:

Quote
April 18, 1998: Traded by Chargers as 2000 1st round pick (13th overall) to Buccaneers for 1998 2nd round pick (59th overall, Mikhael Ricks)

April 12, 2000: Traded by Buccaneers as 2000 1st round pick (13th overall) with 2000 1st round pick (27th overall, Anthony Becht) to Jets for Keyshawn Johnson

March 22, 2006: Traded by Jets to Falcons as part of a 3-team trade. Broncos sent 2006 1st round pick (29th overall, Nick Mangold) to Jets. Broncos sent 2006 3rd round pick (93rd overall subsequently traded, Dominique Byrd) and 2007 4th round pick (121st overall subsequently traded, Marcus Thomas) to Falcons. Falcons sent 2006 1st round pick (15th overall subsequently traded, Tye Hill) to Broncos.

So Keyshawn eventually became Nick Mangold.

Wow, that's pretty good.

Reminds me of Bill Cartwright--Knicks drafted him in 1979, played 10 years here, traded to Chicago for Charles Oakley in 1988, Oak played 10 years here and was traded to Toronto for Marcus Camby in 1998. If they dummies who took over didn't trade Camby we could still be in business.

I would think whether Adams throws a bitch fit about getting a new contract like Clark said is a huge factor as well.

If Adams is willing to play his 4th year, 5th year option, and franchise tag the next 3 years then I can understand keeping him.

If he thinks he's getting Elite money after this season, the Jets absolutely have to trade his derriere.

Personally id trade him Eitherway, but those two factors would make the decision a whole lot easier or harder

So should we trade him right now for 2 second rounders?

The guy talked his talk. Then he went out and walked it. He felt he was elite and should be treated that way. He wasn't wrong.

President Mal has more sacks in the past 3 weeks (6) than Leo Williams has since the beginning of last season (5).

The dude is excellent. But he feasted against the worst offense in the league, and a bad offense missing 3 linemen.

Jamals the best player on the team. But Sam succeeding is more important.

Hopefully Jamals up to two 1st and a 3rd for him and a 4th or 5th
