If you lost to the Raiders, one player ain’t gonna fix your problems.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think one player named Aaron Rodgers might’ve made a difference haha

Would it be in Davante's best interests to do it?

Isn't part of the reason he left Green Bay the uncertainty of how long Rodgers was going to keep on playing there? Isn't that basically the same situation with the Jets plus Rodgers coming back from a very serious injury?

That was probably 25% the case, 25% of it was the front office waffling around paying him fair value for like a full year and then 50% playing with Carr.

I don't think Adams cares about long term at this point.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You forgot about his family living closer to Vegas too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The Packers offered Adams more than the Raiders.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It was nowhere near 50% carr, but you idiots refuse to read actual quotes or listen to what the actual player is saying in all his interviews.

I vote yes. I'm not biased.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

But he also went to the Raiders to play with his buddy Derek Carr and that didn't last too long.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does he have a no trade clause? Because if not it literally doesn’t matter

Also I doubt he’s thrilled to have AOC as his QB. Idk what this sub sees in that guy but I don’t see it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Not gonna sit here and listen to Car Ramrod disrespect. That man played the Jets D harder than the league's top QBs. You thought 20 years of Brady was bad? Prepare yourself for 30 years of AOC and the squad.

learn to take no for an answer >:(

Cuz lack of weapons is why the jets suck right? I swear they're TRYING to lose if they do this without addressing the o line first.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

In fairness their oline has been ravaged by injuries….they haven’t had the same oline play back to back games since week 4….the only starters out there are Becton and Tomlinson and in some cases they have been down to 3rd string or PS players

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Easier to ignore facts when it’s about the Jets

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Since week 4? Was the online not allowing tons of pressure before this?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah I’ve seen the article…I guess I’m relying on the eye test after watching every game…I think the context of this being Rodgers offense and not using a lot motion so he can make his own presnap adjustment has something to do w those numbers…also I can say w 100% certainty that losing AVT in back to back years has been a crusher for the Oline and his presence greatly influences the overall result more than any other player on that line

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Their receivers after Wilson are incredibly unimpressive.

…that said, Allen Lazard will now cook the Bills for 140 and 2 TDs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

True, but that's partly because they decided to bring in Allen Lazard and the corpse of Randall Cobb to appease Rodgers rather than actually try and get adequate backups.

I think they should bolster the on-line and find a complimentary #2 to Garrett Wilson than overpay for a 32 year old Davante.

I don’t remember the last game we scored a TD lol. 2 would be like a 1000% increase.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Maybe an unpopular opinion but if the Jets give up much, seems like it might be something that could go wrong fast. Davante will be 32 next year. The fall off for elite WRs tends to be sudden and steep. The OL will be bad and Rodgers will be 41 coming off a torn Achilles. Feels like this year was their year, it got sunk, and now they’re chasing with dumb money.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I agree. Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall look like they could be stars. Fix the oline and get a real #2 receiver who isn't just some guy Rodgers played with before.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah all you have to do draft quality o linemen, sign cheap upgrades for the oline who outplay their contracts, AND draft a rookie wr who will contribute as a #2 immediately. It's that easy

I have no idea how they make the draft capital work to grab him and at least 2 o linemen, but I love this. GW17 needs someone else out there who can catch a ball and make a play.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I know they want to load up for one last chance, but I think this is just one step too far

Huge contract, getting old for a receiver, and gonna cost a big draft pick. They are going to lose our on signing some of their core guys or be in cap hell with no QB in a year, and no assets to recover.

This was 100% why Rodgers took less money coming to NY. If he was healthy, the Jets would have been much more aggressive trying to get him and the trade deadline.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I feel like this has Woody's hand on it. Same thing with Woody lobbying to get Rodgers. He probably wants Adams to pair up with Rodgers next season.

RIP cap space.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

rip everything. the worst thing that can come out of this is a roster that gets incredibly thin after rodgers and his posse leave without anyone in the wings, saleh and douglas get extended if we even make a wildcard spot, and we're hoping the people in charge can succeed without having a rodgers bail them out again

Raiders please destroy the Dolphins today. Then maybe lose a bunch so Adams requests another trade?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's what they need. That's the position they need to upgrade. Sure.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Dude right?? Give Garrett Wilson an NFL-caliber QB with decent protection and I truly think he’s putting up Justin Jefferson/Jamar Chase/AJ Brown numbers.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Outside of Garrett Wilson, the Jets WR room isn't good. Now I don't know if they need to make a big splash for Adams, but they definitely need a second WR.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Adams is Tier 1 no question, but it should be mentioned that the upcoming WR is absolutely stacked and it’d probably be in the Jetes best interest to look at a R2 or R3 wideout and address the trenches first.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

We don’t have a round 2 pick and I really think we’ll be drafting Oline but we’ll see how everything plays out

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

it sucks that this franchise is so starved for success that we'll chalk up this catastrophe of a season as a mulligan and try again with an older, injured rodgers, a coaching staff that doesn't work at all, and a roster that looks worse offensively than just about everyone else.

the hope was that we were a quarterback away, but it's clear that that means "hall of fame quarterback playing at an mvp level" if we want to do anything besides being the worst offense in the league

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Hey, I take offense at you trying to commandeer the title of worst offense in the league from us.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Dude they already invested in rodgers and he says he’s coming back what should they do, trade players for draft picks so were set for the rebuild when he retires? We were always gonna go all in next year for 1-2 more years with AR at the helm the injury sucks but we can get Adams and another Olineman or two and then see what happens

Honestly Jets should go all in. If I was them tho I’d be desperately getting some O-line help.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Even if the Raiders were to trade him they'd still be on the hook for his $25 million cap hit. Which doesn't sound like something the Raiders would want to do unless the Jets attach like their next 2 FRP's to it

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Imagine Aaron Rodgers doesn’t have a smooth recovery and Devante goes from the Raiders to Zach Wilson. I don’t know why people assume Rodgers will be fine. He’s been hurt a significant part of the season the past several years.

I feel like this story is leaked by Jets PR…they already asking for season ticket holders to pay for next season and I’m sure based on the product so far this year there’s been hesitation from many holders…

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

that's exactly what it is. they're already thinking about next season's profits and how they can get another cash-in from rodgers

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe try fixing your trash O-line.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah I don’t believe this rumor at all. The Raiders gave up a 1st and 2nd to get him and have paid him a lot of money. They still owe him a lot more. They aren’t going to trade him.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I bet they’ll keep Zach Wilson too and if something happens that they need to turn to him again they’ll say “how could this have happened.”

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

2 first round pick or GTFO. It’s not financially feasible for us to just trade him for anything less than a bounty and having Davante is a huge asset for our young QB, whether that’s Aidan or a drafted rookie.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Joe Douglas hitching his whole career into a 41 years old Rodgers coming off an achilles injury is crazy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

They would have to send the Raiders over like $40 million on top of a haul of draft picks/young players for this to even be considered. If the Raiders trade Adams they take a huge dead cap hit for him. No way the Raiders are going to take the dead cap number and only get like a 2nd rounder. I’m dumbfounded that this narrative keeps getting put out there. HE’S NOT GETTING TRADED

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Hes our dwight schrute , he'll never leave

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Its a $25 million cap hit if the raiders trade him.

Its not happening. Why do people insist on ignoring this lol
