Me too.
I would prefer for them not to at this point - use those picks to build o-line and D-line and maybe get a TE like Warren to give Fields another weapon.
Stephens had a great 2023. Something went bad last year - he was awful. I don't know if he had some personal issues or what (it wasn't injuries). The Ravens, who are paranoid about DB depth, seemed to have felt no need to keep him. Hopefully, Stephens has it worked out. If so, and the Jets get the 2023 version, they made a really good signing.
thats what ive been reading as well - should have been more of a discount then with his awful 2024.....However gotta trust Glenn with corners - maybe he noticed something that can be fixed. Not thrilled but gonna trust them on this one.
I would trust Glenn at this point. Maybe Stephens and his coaches had a falling out (doesn't mean it was the player's fault). I do know the Ravens main DB coach left before last season to become DC at Tennessee and that change might have caused a rift.
I’m actually rooting for Fields to do well. I like the dude.
Holmes and Faneca were actually good singings originally....got them to the AFCCG. We dont speak of ODonnel and Bell lol - definitely a Pitt pipeline!
id like to hear as well - Jets deserve to not get the benefit of the doubt but i dont see how this is a bad signing based on the options.
I actually think the Jets win more games than Seattle or Las Vegas next season with the youngest and cheapest QB of the three that just changed teams.
I’ve said it several times over the last couple of days - the Jets aren’t exactly known for developing young talent at the position.
If Vegas puts this on the board I’m betting a small fortune on Seattle.
Blind man with the red tipped cane is the leader.
No offense taken and we are fine with all takes here - Jets are champions of the offseason and then the wheels fall off usually - but all it takes is a good HC and QB so why not take a shot at the QB as I think Glenn will be a good HC
Thinking of my Dolphin defense ... the AFC East has 3 of the top running QBs in the league. A big test for coordinator Anthony Weaver whose D performed better than expected, but has many holes to fill and not much cap space. I think Fields is underrated.
They have one of the worst lines in the league and traded away 2 of their top 3 WRs, I think Darnold regresses a bit. Jets have a better defense.
I don’t disagree, but as mediocre as Russ is, he might have been a better fit to steady a QB need that’s been somewhat in flux for a long time now.
I hope so too - mainly as all JEt fans are due for some good luck and a Baker like transformation would be awesome as developing a rookie QB is long and painful. However, unlike the Rodgers debacle there is less pressure on Fields and if it doesnt work out its easy to move on and take another swing. Its expected to be a rebuild year but they have a solid foundation. If Glenn is the coach we are hoping and Fields plays decent they could easily be playing meaningful games in December - if not then its just a bad rebuild year everyone was preparing for and there should be options at QB next draft.
New coaching staff. Past Jets QB history is irrelevant.
2 years 40 million seems rather high IMO.
Same owners, right?
I was a little surprised they locked up Tony Adams. Wasn’t he benched briefly last year?
Owner doesn't affect QB play.
Yes - a first right of refusal.
Inconvenient to say the least that arguably the better 2 available QBs were both former Jets who suffered for their being drafted by NYJ.
As a FF shareholder of players from various franchises, it certainly feels like it does.
This is something I think people were downplaying a bit too much. I had a hard time believing that either Darnold or Geno would want to come back to the Jets if they had other options which they both certainly did (this is assuming Geno had any say in where he ended up). I never thought of either as a viable option this year which meant that your best options were running it back with Rodgers, trading for Stafford if he was actually even available (he wasn't) trading up for a QB in an uninspiring class, reaching for a QB in an uninspiring class, rolling with Tyrod Taylor or signing Mariota, Wentz or Fields. All things considered I think they made the best move they had available and it doesn't stop them from continuing to search for their QB of the future should it not work out.
I don't believe this is true - they're above average in 3/5 of the line. Losing Moses puts them in a small hole but depending on a 35 year old RT is a shaky proposition anyway. Max Mitchell is a bit shaky but maybe the new coaching staff is better suited to build a line.
is it - 7/8 wins?
