Now that Robert Saleh is the next coach of the New York Jets, it's time to move on to the next part of the offseason:  Free Agency

I think our top target should be New England Patriots* Guard Joe Thuney.  Continue to build the wall.

100% agree. As of right now I'd be comfortable with Becton-Thuney-McGovern-Elflein-Fant but I'd be happy to upgrade any of the latter three positions as well.

Haven't looked into San Francisco's passing offense enough yet to know who would be a good fit. 

From the outside looking in at their roster, they seem to prefer YAC guys (Deebo, Aiyuk, James, Taylor).  And obviously the tight end was a huge part of that offense with Kittle.  We have to get better at TE.

Thuney gets us a champion on the offensive line plus it's a swift kick to New England's* nuts. 

You want to surround Becton and the QB with winners.

Both of those guys are more like jumbo receivers.  They could fill that role that Jordan Reed never could, because he was always hurt.  Kittle is also the best blocking tight end in the NFL.

It'll be tough for them to replicate that production with anyone, but I think someone like Ohio State's Jeremy Ruckert in the mid rounds is a nice starting point.  Not ready to give up on Herndon yet either, but he's a more of a TE2 at this point.

Reminiscent of when we signed Faneca to put next to Brick

Thuney is younger and much better at this point in his career, but that move helped Brick immensely. Pete Kendall and Adrien Clarke started at LG his first 2 seasons.

I mentioned in the JO craft beer group text that Thuney was drafted right in between our Hackenberg and Jenkins picks. Sigh.

That would indicate a preference for Godwin wouldn’t it? I also expect Crowder to feast in this offense.

As for TE I would assume our top TE target would be Freiermuth from Penn State given that he’s the best combo TW in the class. He’s a guy that might be available at 34.

I also suspect that we will be very high on Jaylen Waddle for this offense in the draft.

Where is the OSU Center Jason Myers going to get drafted? Grab that guy and install him as the pivot pushing McGovern to guard might be a way to upgrade two slots. Is it possible Myers is a 3rd round guy?

We need smaller, more athletic linebackers.

I guess we could hang on to Luvu, Basham, Huff, and Blake Cashman's broken derriere as depth.  All seem pretty athletic.  Maybe Basham and Huff could push for playing time.

Obviously free agents are needed.

Huff will stick around, he plays a lot of special teams and has shown flashes on D. Heismanberg is a fan of Luvu, he's young and he's hard working and he seems to be improving so I can see him staying as well. Not sure there's a place for Basham or Cashman.

Basham played well.  Cashman hasn't stayed unbroken long enough to put on a jock strap.

True, but the ideal lb in each system is drastically different.  This will allow us to get more athletic linebackers on the field that actually have a chance to cover rbs and tes

I'll throw a theory out from an offensive line perspective.

So the 3-4 was really popular in the 1970's, early 80's, back when linemen were just a bunch of interchangeable fat dudes all doing basically the same job.  Then when the NFL started more heavily emphasizing the passing game in the late 80's, early 90's, the pass rush became the priority and teams started implementing the 4-3 more often.  The fastest and least cluttered route to the quarterback is and always has been off the edge, so it makes sense to have down linemen whose primary role is to beat the most isolated of the interchangeable fat dudes, the tackles (especially the blindside tackle). 

But the game continued to evolve and NFL offenses put more emphasis on finding and developing superfreak left tackles to pair with their four interchangeable fat dudes to negate that edge rush.  That paved the way for the 3-4's resurgence, because why keep rushing the blindside, against the best athlete on the offensive line, when there are four perfectly good scrubs you could beat with an ever-changing combination of rushing linebackers? 

That lead to the emergence of these superior athletes at the guard position in the 2000's: your Hutchinson's, your Faneca's, your Shields', etc.  Quality interior linemen started getting big money, almost left tackle money.  One superfreak and four fat kids just doesn't cut it anymore, and that's a point about which I've been slamming the table for years.  You need high quality athletes at every position on the offensive line and most NFL teams have come around to that philosophy. 

So, what's the modern NFL defense to do now that there aren't four fat kids to abuse anymore?  Well you could pick on the one, dumb fat kid that every offensive line has, but most coordinators design schemes to minimize that liability.  The next evolution becomes the first evolution: the fastest and least cluttered route to the quarterback is off the edge, so it makes sense to move back toward down defensive ends whose primary role is to rush the quarterback. 

This is an extremely oversimplified view, and there's much more that can be said about coverage schemes and why you can't afford to have a Bart Scott or an Eric Barton or some other bruiser (someone who can take on a guard 10-15 times a game) regularly dropping into coverage or chasing down bubble screens anymore.  (That's why we invested a high draft pick on a guy like Darron Lee who has no business whatsoever playing inside linebacker in a classic 3-4 front).  And ultimately, Stoned is right: every team's base defense nowadays is some form of nickel.  But I love seeing how the big dudes in the trenches can steer the evolution of the game.

Frankly, I'm just excited for the change of pace.

The 49ers have signed restricted free agent RB Jeff Wilson, Jr. to a one-year contract.

He set career-highs with 126 carries, 600 yards and 7 TD, playing great for the team late in the season.



That will strike Jeff Wilson off the Saleh wish list.

I would take Curtis Samuel and Corey Davis at those prices.

If we get Watson I’d go hard after Robinson, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see us priced out of the market as he approaches $20 million a year.

I also wonder how the lower cap affects the market in general. Do the even the top guys offers come down? Does the decrease in prices come with the 2nd tier? Are certain positions affected more than others?

With the conversion to 4-3 Cover 3, I think Saleh and Ulbrich will want to bring back Marcus Maye and add Keanu Neal.  I wouldn't be surprised if we draft several defensive backs either.

Most of these guys are second and third tier free agents that would help jumpstart Saleh's scheme on defense.

I think Richard Sherman, Kerry Hyder, K'Waun Williams, and Keanu Neal are the ones to go after.  Those guys coming free from Philly are mostly trash.

He was the starting strong safety for the defense that our new DC ran.  He's a relatively low-cost scheme fit.

I'd take Neal over Tartt for the third safety role behind Maye and Davis.

Ok, that shitfest of a season is officially over.  New coach, new staff, lots of $$$, full cupboard of draft picks. Official predictions, go.

-Watson either holds out for the year in a dick measuring contest with the Texans or Douglas reaches his trade limit and he goes elsewhere.

-Darnold stays as QB.  Sign generic, smart veteran backup.  James Morgan continues to be invisible.

-Douglas trades down from 2, stockpiles picks.  Doug sees the haul from trade down as more valuable than a rookie QB right now.  Manages to secure an extra 1st or 2nd rounder for 2022.

-Jets sign Thuney or Scherff, re-sign Elflein, bail on Alex Lewis and Van Roten, keep Fant, draft a gord in the 2nd or 3rd round.  Wouldn't be shocked to see Lewis or Van Roten come back on cheaper deals later in FA as depth. Cam Clark no longer absent.

-Jets bring back Josh Adams, keep Ty Johnson and roll with them and Perine at RB on the cheap. 

-Keep Crowder (possibly extend him), Vyyyyy Syyyyy, Berrios, obviously Mims, sign Will Fuller (or another speed guy), draft one in the first round.

-TE doesn't change much.  Wesco blocking role expands.  Herndon gets a fresh start.

-D-line stays similar except Henry Anderson sent packing. Jets add a faster d-lineman in free agency to bolster pass rush.

-LB complete overhaul except Mosley. This is the biggest change in the team.  Honestly, no idea who they bring in, but expect guys Salad has experience with or playing against. Speed needed.  Blake Cashman becomes an elite All-Pro and definitely doesn't break his leg driving to the stadium.

-Maye comes back on new deal or tag.  Sign Keanu Neal.  Davis has big role in nickel.

- Jets draft a corner in the 2nd or 3rd, sign a solid veteran corner (serviceable), let Hall compete to start, let Bless and Lamar stay as depth.

-Sign average, veteran kicker who has been around for a while, finally quit it with the no-name cheapos.

I don't foresee any huge splashes in free agency, but a few big signings.

If we don't keep Poole (we should) then K Juan Williams is a target

Hendrickson should he an edge target.  Him and Q on the same DL is intriguing in this system

Just my guess, not my opinion.  I don't think we get Watson and don't care enough about any of the other big name QBs.  I don't think Douglas wants to draft a QB at 2 when he could flip it for more picks.  That leaves Darnold.  I don't think it matters who drafted him.  It's an unemotional decision.  I'm betting he thinks Darnold can be revived in this system to play at least as well as whatever rookie he could draft.

The wildcards are if someone offers a huge haul for Darnold, or the stars align for Watson.  I think Douglas isn't tied to Darnold enough that he wouldn't trade him for the right deal, but I don't think we will get that offer.  Same with Watson.  I think Douglas will quit bidding at his price, which won't be as high as ours would have been, or something else happens.

it does matter who drafted him, because those people have invested in Darnold. There's no investment from Saleh or Douglas, and chances are they're probably not going to want to tie their careers to a kid they didn't draft, especially since he hasn't been very good.

Watson will be a pipe dream until he isn't.  If it happens, great.  But i'm sure Douglas isn't going into this offseason making Watson his #1 priority....too many variables there.

I also don't think Douglas trades back, unless he has someone like Trey Lance ranked higher than Fields/Wilson.  I'm convinced finding a QB at the draft is Doug's top priority.

I don't think it's crazy to have Watson as part of this offseason plan. We are uniquely positioned to potentially trade for him if he gets dealt before this year's draft. And if we trade down and collect more future picks, we could be uniquely positioned to trade for him closer to the start of the season. The only other team that can offer multiple firsts is Detroit, and we can add more draft assets this year.

If we do decide to roll with Darnold, part of the calculus could be that keeping Darnold leaves the door open for an August Watson trade more than drafting someone at #2 overall. Obviously, this is dependent on still having faith that Sam can be the man, otherwise, it's too risky to pass up the QBs in this year's draft for a trade that may or may not happen.
Title: Re: NYJ Free Agency 2021
Post by: AlioTheFool on February 08, 2021, 12:25:22 PM
I think the QB question comes down to 2 factors:

1) Is Watson available and affordable? If so, Douglas has to pull that trigger.

2) What are the offers for the #2 pick? If someone offers a ransom, unless you think Wilson is a can't-miss, you have to take it. Unless they're dead-set against Darnold, give it one year, while you draft/sign OL and WR. If giving him protection and weapons doesn't drastically improve him, those pieces are there for you in 2022 when you draft the next QB using all the ammo you now have.

Quite frankly, I think it's even simpler than that.

If they think Zach Wilson or Justin Fields or Trey Lance is a superstar in the making, you take them at 2 and move on.

If you have any questions about them, then you evaluate all options, including sticking with Sam, trading down, getting a veteran, or getting Watson.

I don't think this is, nor should be, how Douglas sees it.

If he has the opportunity to acquire Watson at any bearable price and doesn't take it, he should lose his job. That's where the evaluation has to begin. It can't begin with a belief in a kid coming out of college, no matter how convinced you might be that he's going to be good. You already know exactly what you're getting with Watson.

I'm basing my opinions on the fact that whatever makes the most sense never happens.  It would make sense for the Jets to pursue Watson if he isn't forced to sit out.  It would make sense for the Jets to trade Darnold if they get a good offer.  It would make sense to draft a QB at 2 seeing that it's rare to pick that high. 

That's why I think they will keep Darnold.

Crucial part there is the definition of "bearable". Douglas and you might have very different views on what constitutes a bearable price, or even a worthwhile one.

I don't know what he thinks about Sam, or Watson, or the potential draftees. Nor do you. There is an assumption from fans that because they have decided that Sam is an unredeemable mess who needs to be traded to the first person who calls up offering a used tackle sled and a bag of balls and because they really like some kid they've watched on TV half a dozen Saturdays, and because they like Douglas and think he's good at his job, Douglas must de facto feel the same way as they do.

By the same token, Douglas may have already decided that the roster is too full of holes to give up the draft capital he's been collecting for the last two seasons in order to get Watson, and that his contract will chew up too much cap space that he plans to use to sign a couple of free agents he really wants, and that after speaking to a couple of agents and GMs and coaches he's concerned that Watson's head is in the wrong space, and a hundred other things that might prevent him from doing the deal that you and maybe I think he should.

Whatever Douglas does this offseason at QB is not going to sit well with a sizeable chunk of the fanbase, because there are three feasible options that all have their supporters and their detractors. It will be interesting to see what happens when we know what his choice is.

Crucial part there is the definition of "bearable". Douglas and you might have very different views on what constitutes a bearable price, or even a worthwhile one.

I think the #2 pick is valuable enough to not sell the whole farm for Watson. I feel confident that Douglas can present the best package against any competition, considering they'd need to draft a QB, save for Jacksonville--and I don't believe Houston would deal him there.

If Miami goes as far as they'd need to in order to beat our best deal, they'll be crippled in future drafts, so if they wind up "winning" so be it.

I've said before, except for getting Watson, I'd lean toward trading the #2 pick for a windfall. I'm not to the same degree as you, but I think Darnold is salvagable, and I'm willing to give him a year with a completely revamped offense and legitimate system to run. If he flops, we should still have a ton of capital next year to draft a QB, and that guy will come in with a solid core of linemen and receivers we acquire this offseason.

But if the scouting staff believes Wilson (or one of the others) is the better option and that he's worth the #2 pick, I'm not going to be upset.

The only way I wind up unhappy by September is if this team doesn't improve the OL or Douglas drafts a defensive back with the 2-overall.

Again

1. Trade for Watson (I know draft capital blah blah blah . I'll say it again .  Ozzie Newsome himself couldn't make better use of the draft capital.  Otherwise Flacco wouldn't be the best QB he ever had )

2. Wilson or Lance (they all have the same or better physical tools and better footwork than Darnold )

3. Trade down from 2 and see if Sam really is a bust .


Sam can be saved imo . There's just too much missing open WRs and vision issues and he tries to throw off platform like Mahommes and Allen and he's not got the arm for it . All that is why he's 3rd on this scenario ranking for me .

Depends on how far down the board we go. If we drop to 4 and Sewell is on the board, I can't be mad at it.

If we take a deal like someone gave up for Goff or Wentz, I am not going to berate JD for not getting an WR at 15 or so if the top 3 are gone. But it would need to be a gigantic, franchise altering haul for me to want to go that far down the board.

It’s about value and knowing what’s available to you. With any other position, you have to know your value for a guy and ask yourself “what if I’m wrong about this risk and I lose him?”

With a QB though almost always the answer to that question is “I’ll be fucked” so you don’t make that gamble.

If you slide to 6-7-8 and see Lance gone then you have a really good chance of Either Wilson or Fields still being on the board. If you are comfortable with that as your “backup” then you should make the move. If not, just take the guy

In a scenario where we kept Darnold we could afford to add both these guys, trade out of first, draft one of the top 2 wideouts and have the picks to find a competent halfback somewhere plus maybe upgrading at RT.

Darnold would have no excuse not to succeed.

Sure trading for Watson would be the best case scenario for this team, but if that doesn't happen we'd have the cap space and picks to basically revamp this team

That's not the highest paid center in the league, that's a projection for a player.

And the entire interior OL is paid like that

How is Fuller the poor man's Robby? Fuller is better than Robby. I'd take Fuller in a heartbeat.

In theory, JuJu should be a good scheme fit since he's a physical receiver who can make some YAC. But his numbers have progressively gotten worse, he's been outplayed by somewhat no-name receivers, and he's been somewhat of a jackass, and I think a lot of his issues stem from his immaturity.

The best thing about JuJu is that he's still only 24 years old at the start of next season.

James Washington and Diontae Johnson are not "no name" receivers.  They are both relatively high draft picks. 
JuJu Smith-Schuster had over 1,400 yards as a 22-year old, and then Antonio Brown left, which could have opened up even more opportunity for him. Instead, he has less yards over the last 2 seasons (28 games) combined.

I get that Washington and Claypool were late 2nd-rounders, and Johnson was a 3rd-rounder, so the Steelers spent real draft capital on them. But when you're a 22-year old putting up the numbers JuJu was putting up, it's odd to fall off that much when all they added to the rotation were a 2nd and 3rd round pick.

The Steelers used JuJu as a slot receiver with virtualy all of his targets within a few years of the line of scrimmage. He had one of the shortest average depth of target for a WR in the entire NFL. Then again, so did Deebo Samuel, and I could see JuJu filling that kind of role.

Ben two years ago vs the clusterfuck of Rudolph/Hodges and then this year Ben definitely played a role, along with the fuller WR corps this year. Not that I'm a huge fan of JuJu, but I don't think it's necessarily fair to criticize him for that.

If you want to argue he and Robby are the same guy, I'm fine with that. I think Fuller is better when he's healthy, but if you want to chalk most of that up to Watson, fine. The question is his health. Fuller was on pace for 1,278 yards and 11 touchdowns last year, though he got suspended instead of injured.

I'm fine with a lot of the potential WR options. Fuller as Robby Anderson 2.0 would be an upgrade over what we had. Kenny Golladay or Allen Robinson would be the best WR we've had since Marshall. JuJu was a pure slot receiver in Pittsburgh last year, but he's still only 24 years old, and maybe he has room to grow. I like a lot of the WR options, though if we bring in JuJu, I assume Crowder is gone.

I assume Kendrick Bourne will be here next year as one depth WR spot. Mims, ______, Crowder and Bourne would be a fine top 4.

Signing him is a more expensive admission of failure on Robby . (Yes I think Fuller will get AT least what Robby got )

But I stand by what I said . JD went on record stating he underestimated the WR market and the value on Robby

The fact he's gonna earn more by proxy of being in a top heavy WR class vs a weak one last yr is just the market

Doesn't mean he deserves more money than Robby . Just means he will likely get more .

Yeah this is something that has crossed my mind as well

I'd be on board if Juju didn't put a target on himself this yr and dominated on the field as much as he does on TikTok

I won't lose my excrement if we signed him but again

TBH I would be absolutely furious if we signed JuJu for a multitude of reasons and I don't even give a freak what the contract looks like.

I don't know how to feel about Fuller, except I know I don't want to spend 17 million per on him, but as always it's all about the guarantees.

If we paid him like a 3rd option, i'd be fine with it. But I don't think he's a top WR in the league and he wants to be paid like one. Add in the diva drama, and I want nothing to do with him at what he's going to cost.

The only way I'm doing that is if Dak is committing to signing a long term deal, otherwise I'm giving up my incumbent quarterback, missing out on drafting a replacement, and get a one year stopgap in a season where I'm not going to be competing anyway.

I'd imagine any trade for Dak involving more than a 2nd round pick would be dependent on him signing a contract extension

Hell didn't Dak refuse to sign the franchise tag last year or whatever? I'd imagine he would he would be as opposed to playing on a one year deal as any team giving up significant draft picks would be on having him play on a one year deal

 Brute gords like Trey Smith (next to Becton-ouch!) are nice on 4th and 1 but lateral movers like Rashawn Slater are better suited if the Jets are running the wide zone in '21.  Nice combo of brute plus athleticism.  As for Kyle Juszczyk, everyone could use a Haahvard man.

I remember him continually harping on that, and yet Mac's greatest success came when he was able to trade mid and late round picks for two players that helped set up the 2015 offense.

Unfortunately Maccagnan also apparently graduated from the school of Matt Millen when it came to concepts such as position scarcity, especially relative to available resources.

If you're an NFL team looking for an offensive lineman in free agency, here's what Joe Thuney offers: he's 28, been an All-Pro guard who has also started games at center and played offensive tackle too.

He's been called for 3 total penalties over the past two seasons. Standout.

Thuney, Linsley, and Samuel are the only offensive free agents I care about

Go get Carl Lawson/Romeo Okwara/Tyus Bowser and some corners

I’d add Keanu Neal and Kerry Hyder to the wish list.

One playmaker in Samuel, fortify the OL and spend the rest of the money on the defense so that we can spend our draft capital on offense, whether that’s for Watson or Wilson and then some people around him.

Dolphins are at $24.3 million in space as of today. I expect teams will make cuts in the next few days before FA.

Aside from Anderson, I would also say our most logical cap savings/cuts are guys that we don't need to cut until we have a replacement signed. Aka, we won't cut Lewis until we have Thuney locked in. Then we would cut him and restock the coffers a bit.

I think the ideal situation is we get two interior OL, Thuney and Linsley being the top options. Then our starting interior is some combo of Thuney - Linsley - McGovern. Then we cut Lewis and our top backups before the draft are GVR, Elflein and Clark.

I’d expect to add a draft pick to both the inside and outside of the OL this class as well.

To me, its the same situation with van Roten.  They both are below average as starters, but good as depth.  Hopefully Douglas will try to get them to redo their deals at lower amounts or hit the bricks.  I don't know who the depth is beyond them.  Not sure what Cam Clark is right now.

I'd take him at like half of his current cost though.  $4M as a depth receiver that has elite deep speed. 

I’d be all about this option. Perriman when healthy produced quite a bit for us. He wasn’t healthy much but as a depth guy, you could do a lot worse than a home run threat.

My #1 is Thuney. My #2 is Linsley. My #3 is Lawson. My # 4 is Samuel. My #5 is Jonnu Smith.

My I really want this guy to sign here next week: Marlon Mack.

So naturally I’d say we don’t sign any of those guys

NFL reporter Josina Anderson reports the Jets, Vikings, and Browns have all expressed interest in free agent DE Trey Hendrickson.

Playing opposite Cameron Jordan in New Orleans, 26-year-old Hendrickson exploded for a career-best 13.5 sacks last season as a full-time starter across 15 games. He's expected to land a monster deal with the edge market depleting in front of our eyes after Shaq Barrett and Romeo Okwara re-upped with their current clubs.

The primary argument for signing him that I recall was "he can give us everything that Anderson does but for less money". Which obviously he didn't. Also, Darnold had no problem slinging it to Robby when he was open down field.

Yeah, and I think he basically was a slightly worse version of what Robby gave us. Darnold and Robby had more chemistry though. There were plenty of times Perriman had at least a step on his guy and Darnold didn't throw it.

Robby's last year here, he averaged 49 yards per game. Perriman averaged 42, and most of that was when Flacco played, since Flacco was willing to take some chances on deep balls. Darnold was not. Maybe it was coaching, maybe he had less faith in Perriman, maybe he got worse - most likely, it's a combination of the 3 led by coaching, but when Perriman had Flacco throwing to him, he looked like Robby 2.0.

In strip clubs in the UK you get kicked out for touching the girls, so if you sit on your hands while getting a dance it's considered polite and a sign to the dancer that you're not about to get all touchy-feely.

You absolutely need good guards in this scheme.

The Jets tried to sign Thuney but he chose KC.  Can’t blame him.  Much better situation, same money.

Step 1: Trade Crowder for day 3 picks
Step 2: Sign JuJu - WR room is now Davis, Mims, Juju
Step 3: Sign Marlon Mack or Jamal Williams - RB room now Mack, Perine, Adams, Johnson
Step 4: Trade #2 pick for multiple firsts
Step 5:  Sign 2 offensive lineman with the first 3 picks
Step 6:  Let Darnold play out the year and decide next year if we need a new QB.  If Darnold fails the offense is set up for a rookie or Deshaun Watson to come in and be successful in 2022

For the first time in a while, I feel the Jets are in a pretty good place to address their remaining needs
- Quarterback: No. 2 pick in the draft
- Offensive line: No. 23 pick, 2nd-rd pick, two 3rd-rd picks and a pick for Darnold. Maybe trade Darnold and 23 to move up for an OL?
- Cornerback: K'Waun WIlliams and Richard Sherman should be in our price range and be strong targets
- Running back: either draft or FA...RB is easiest position to fill usually

Obviously, there are several other positions we could still use upgrades at, but the defense already has added Lawson, Davis and Mosley (and Saleh), and Davis gives us a professional WR that we sorely needed. Reminds me in some ways of Eric Decker, though I think Decker is/was better.

If he wasn't willing to kick the tires on Linsley then I think it's pretty clear Douglas feels like we're set at center. 

As for guard, I'm guessing he thinks the only obvious upgrade on the market was Joe Thuney, since we didn't seem to be in play at all for Zeitler or Feiler.  Clark, Lewis, and Van Roten are all his guys and it seems like he's going to roll with them or let them compete with vets of similar talent.  I think it's a bad strategy. 

I'd love to see us draft a guard with our second or third pick.  But when you need to draft a guard with the second or third pick, you've really short-changed your late day 1 flexibility.  And if we do decide to go another way because the value just isn't there, then we've failed to improve the offensive line in any meaningful way and we've done a huge disservice to either Sam Darnold or the next quarterback we're going to ruin.

Cap space and draft picks don’t automatically translate into good players or a good team. People were making this argument a couple years ago that Darnold would develop because we had the most cap space in the league and the #3 pick. Well, not when you turn that into Mosley, Bell, and a DT. We need to significantly improve the OL, it was not good again last year.

Like who? I believe you...but after Linsley and Thuney were signed, i kinda lost track of who was available.


If we manage to keep our picks intact, we should be able to land Wyatt Davis with Seattle's 1st rounder or our 2nd rd pick.

I thought Douglas made good strides improving the line last year.  We added Becton and Fant.  The gords didn't work out, but we were all knob-slobbing Douglas when he signed GVR and Lewis.  The Governator was an improvement as well. 

I know we need to improve further, but we shouldn't act like Douglas hasn't tried to improve the line.  Do you remember what we had in 2019?


It was better, and yet still among the worst in the league. The tackles were a huge upgrade but they both missed time. The interior OL was atrocious.

We could still sign Rodney Hudson or David Andrews at C and move McGovern to G but it doesn’t sound like Douglas has any interest in doing that. Or maybe he just didn’t want to pay the most expensive center in the league.

McGovern wasn’t good last year and certainly not good enough to prevent us from making a clear upgrade at 2 OL positions of need with 1 move.

We didn't go after Linsley because Douglas is confident in McGovern and does not want to move him to guard.

We went after Thuney and supposedly were in it 'til the end.  He chose to go to the best team in the AFC for a ton of cash.  Can't blame him.  The Jets didn't have a chance once the Chiefs came in with that offer.

I saw on NFLN this morning, a lot of these free agent WRs are going to avoid long-term deals this year because the cap is so low from COVID.  They are going to sign 1 year deals and cash in next year when the cap goes way up.  Assuming solid play, I think we'll find we got a steal of a deal with Corey Davis when these massive WR deals happen next year.  We may be done in the WR market except for a short deal with someone like Perriman.

He upgraded the tackles very well and did not pay Fant bargain basement prices.  I think the jury is still out on McGovern and Douglas didn't get him for cheap either.  I'd like to see how McGovern does with better guards next to him (if that happens).  Clearly the guard situation didn't work out as planned. 

Last year we had 2 above average tackles, an average center and bad guards.  The year before that, we had an average tackle and 4 bad players on the rest of the line.  I'd say that's an upgrade and we all agreed that you can't turn around a line as bad as 2019 in 1 year.  We have solved 40% of it, not including if McGovern plays better.  Now gords.

I'm interested to see if the new offensive scheme helps or hurts our offensive line.

Aside from Thuney, FA has gone as well as we would have liked. Can't fault JD for Thuney either. JD landed what could be the best passrusher we've had in the last decade, a very capable WR, an elite ST player and depth at LB.

I think he'll still sign a CB, and maybe a RB plus another depth receiver and edge rusher.

Guard might have to wait til the draft.

We have a ton of draft picks. Yes, we need to address offensive line. But even if we don't sign a single offensive linemen in free agency, I'm not going to get annoyed until after the draft.

It seems like WR and CB are going to be addressed in free agency. We could really use an infusion of young, talented, cost-controlled offensive linemen. As we all know, we rarely draft OL with high picks. We can take 2 OL in Days 1 and 2 and address the need.

The Guard market was terrible it was Thuney or bust and unless we tossed him $20 million a year we weren’t winning the fight over KC. The problem is there is nothing that’s an obvious upgrade on the market.

I’m all for Hudson but clearly JD and co think McGovern can be a quality C which means they probably won’t get involved there either.

I’d guess the plan is to find value guys in the secondary and the the LB corps and possibly another edge. Then in the draft go OL heavy in the mid rounds.

I’d say it’s not an impossibility we could take 3 straight OL. In my head it goes something like this for an OL board from 34 - 87.

100%.

This offseason, we desperately need to address
- EDGE (done)
- OL (TBD)
- WR (partly done)
- CB (TBD)
- LB (done)
- QB (TBD)
- RB (TBD)

OL, QB and RB can easily be taken care of in the draft. Some good veteran CBs out there that fit our system that we can have Bryce Hall learn from.

If we don't have OL reinforcements after the draft, I'll worry.

Our team was depth deficient. We could use that $50 million to sign 10 - $5 million a year guys and improve the depth at a ton of positions across the board.

Ultimately I believe JD is going to make 2 more “serious” moves, an outside CB capable of starting and at RB. Then he will bring in a handful of guys along the Justin Hardee signing and help fill out the bottom of the roster and improve depth and ST. My guess is we ultimately add 9-11 free agents this offseason (does not include trades) and by count we have 4 already, Corey Davis, Carl Lawson, Jarrad Davis, Justin Hardee.

Which is fine. The OL class is deep this year.

We drafted Randy Thomas in 1999, started almost every game through 2002 until he left via the Jetskins exodus.

Forgot he existed.

I'm still going with Thomas because he was actually missed after we lost him. Winters was, at best, admittedly not as bad as some said.

Not saying blow money a la Tanny...but if we’re sitting on $50M and this is all we do in FA, I’ll be truly disappointed
I'd be very surprised if we don't make at least one more relatively big move. JuJu is a possibility.

There's also a QB with a $40M cap hit in 2022 that I wouldn't mind trading for and leaving some room for.

Would you rather have:

1. Crowder for this year
2. Ju-Ju for 3 years or so at the same price
3. Extend Crowder for a couple of years

Honestly, I think Crowder is one of the best slot WR in the game and very underrated.  He's only 4 years older, not like he's 35 or something.  I haven't watched Ju-Ju to know if he's better in the slot, but his size gives him the ability to be more than just a slot WR.

Juju will be on fairly big money if we get him, and Crowder's making $11M this year. Assuming Mims and Davis will be the two outside receivers on the majority of plays, I'm not sure we'd be getting great value from spending $20M+ on our WR3 and WR4.

That said, Crowder's only got a year left on his deal. If he wants to extend it and reduce the cap hit then it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, but I'd imagine he can get more on the market.

Can Crowder or JuJu play outside? Both are mainly slot guys. I'm not sure JuJu is really better than Crowder, but he is younger, and he does have an elite season under his belt, so there may be more untapped potential. He's probably a better fit for the system because of his physicality. I trust JuJu's health a little more, too.

This is the best argument against keeping Crowder; if the team signs Juju and there just isn't any work for him then there is no reason to keep him.

His own injury history along with Mims' last season are the best arguments for not cutting any talent at WR

He's on an expiring contract and if we're not spending the money on anyone else we might as well let him play out the final year.

Its not about saving money its about using money ineffectiveness. 
     Why spend 7.5% of the cap on a player who will be 4th string?
     Why not trade an expiring asset for value

JuJu definitely more versatile than Crowder. But the Steelers thought he was best used as a slot receiver. They could be wrong, and it could just be to accomodate Johnson and Washington, but that's where he mostly has played.

I'm certainly not going to be upset if they sign a new WR and also keep Crowder. But I agree with Insanity that it isn't a good use of money. We have the cap space where we can afford it though.

I totally agree. And there should be a change.

Something about these accusations seems off though. Lawyers seems shady. Lawyer has ties to the owner, who probably has interest in smearing Watson out the door. Getting some Michael Avenatti vibes here.

That said, I'm probably giving Watson the benefit of the doubt because he's always seemed like a great guy on and off the field, and that isn't fair because that's only a tiny window into who Watson really is as a person. Every time someone turns out to be a rapist or murderer or something awful, someone comes out and will say "he seemed like a nice guy," so I recognize this could be a horrible way to look at this. Plus, I want him to be a Jet, so there's some fandom creeping in where I hope it isn't true.

That said, the Chiefs kept Tyreek Hill. Easier to do that with a WR than a QB, but there's still a ways to go.

Its not about saving money its about using money ineffectiveness. 
     Why spend 7.5% of the cap on a player who will be 4th string?
     Why not trade an expiring asset for value
     Why have 4 wide recievers on the roster that can't contribute to any part of special teams

Its stupid and bad roster management


You're right.

We should spend that money on an offensive lineman instead. Oops.

If they trade him, I won't complain. There's value in trade. But I wouldn't actively look for a trade if he doesn't ask for one.

This team, and seemingly a lot of the fanbase, loves to save money. For what? We carry money every year with this idea "We're gonna spend it on big-ticket guys next year!" And every year we don't. Woody's bank account just gets bigger.

You're arguing against something I'm not saying.

It makes no sense to just dump Crowder if we manage to bring in JuJu. If Crowder says "Hey, could you trade me somewhere I'll play more" then sure, I'd respect the wish because he's been a good soldier.

But I wouldn't just decide to dump him. He's a good locker room guy and talented. The $10M isn't going to be spent elsewhere this year. So what is the need to get rid of him?

Guessing he's betting on himself with one more season in a familiar offensive situation in order to get a better long-term deal in 2022 than KC was offering.
I don't know if KC was offering a one-year deal at more money, but then he's 3rd fiddle behind Hill and Kelce.

I really want to see what Douglas does with this cap space because it seems like there are some discounted deals to be had on the market. I think there's going to be one more relatively big ticket item, whether it's a FA or a trade.

All these WR deals are reasonable. I don't know just how much the Jets tax is, but even if we had paid a little more, I would be fine with it.

Other than not bringing back Elflein, there isn't anything I think Douglas has screwed up thus far in this year's free agency.

But his resume includes the failures he's brought in previously. And my argument you responded to included not just him but his predecessors.

I've gone on record that it's too early to judge him yet. But in 2+ years, he's done nothing to wow me or give me evidence to believe he's going to build a great roster. Fair or not, the previous guys occupying his office put a larger burden of proof on his shoulders for me.

Im not making predictions but I think I would like to see them still go far Hayward for CB, KJ Wright for LB and Trai Turner for OG. Maybe another RB and extend Maye with the remaining cap.
Still have some potential cuts that can save some money
Alex Lewis 5.1 million
GVR 3.4 million
Josh Doctson 1 million
Tanzel Smart 1 million
Ryan Griffin 1.8 million
Braxton Berrios 850K
Those lower end cuts don't matter much because they have to be replaced by someone who will likely cost a similar amount so it's a wash.

[Yates] Teams looking for cornerbacks in free agency still have a bunch of intriguing options: Richard Sherman, Steven Nelson, Casey Hayward, K'Waun Williams, Malcolm Butler, AJ Buoye, Jason McCourty, Bashaud Breeland, Nickell Robey-Coleman, Brian Poole, Josh Norman. Deep group still.

Douglas definitely played the CB market right so far.

I think Guidry and Joyner/Davis can fill that role well.  I do think we'll try to bring back Brian Poole at some point. 

Douglas seems to have played the corner market in a good way.  We should be able to add a veteran or two on inexpensive deals.

Hall and Guidry are both okay. I still anticipate that we're going to sign Sherman, so just bring in one other cheap-ish vet or draft someone and we should be acceptable at the position with the amount of 3-safety looks that are probably coming.

Casey Hayward, 31
Richard Sherman, 33
Darqueze Dennard, 29
Baushad Breeland, 29

I expect Big Doug to make a move now that the premium cornerbacks are off the board.  Trading Crowder for a CB could be a viable option as well.

I don't think Crowder could get us a reasonable CB. Maybe a Quincy Wilson type ala last year, but i'd rather get a draft pick at that point.

I expect calls will go out to Poole and Nelson and Sherman on Sunday afternoon.

Not sure why that would affect us anyway, we're not getting any comp picks. No one good left us in FA, the only one I can think of who signed a deal of any value elsewhere is Elflein and we signed way more FAs than we lost.

Fant missed a bunch of time too so I’m def on board with adding another OT even though I think we’re all pretty confident in budding superstar/potential breakout player Chuma Edoga.

Glad we’re spending the Crowder money to improve the team now instead of sitting on it.

Sounds eerily similar to Crowder and we see how that ended.

This is the way. If we never have to hear Connor McDermott's name again, then the move will be worth it. But if he's on his way in for a 'multi year contract,' then the expectation is that he will start, and Fant is either playing a different spot on the line, renegotiating, or finding a new team to play for this year. I will be very curious to see what the money for Moses ends up being regardless of whether it's our money or someone else's.

1 year deal, see if he can beat out Van Roten at RG or keep him as insurance for Becton. He’s pretty mobile, I’ll bet they could draft up some plays for him in space as swing tackle in this new scheme.

Bringing in Moses let's Fant get in more snaps at LT and gives Becton a breather when it comes to practice and what not.
