Besides Kinlaw I don't think I've heard of any of these guys the Jets have signed.

We added a backup QB who ideally never sees the field and a league average guard while letting our best homegrown pass rusher since John Abraham walk out the door what more do you want?

Simpson isn't league average. He's actively bad. He spent 2022 on a practice squad. He was one of the worst guards in the league in 20 and 21. He had one ok year (graded like poo poo) in the perfect situation.

He's getting $6m instead of $20m. An ok starting year on the Ravens is worth at least that.

OK but you are still starting a mediocre LG at best now. What is the ceiling to how good the Jets' OL can be? Who gives a poo poo about having a warm body..... are we trying to win anything this year or just fill out a roster? To me, this is a lateral move from Tomlinson and they had an embarrassingly awful OL last year.

I've already said, the best case scenario is he's the worst guy on the line, and he's probably a lateral or slight upgrade to Laken at a cheaper price. They still need a good LT and to burn their 1st on another.

Jets probably would have been in the mix with Pittsburgh to get the last wild card spot (then obviously and immediately lose) year with Tyrod so uh there’s that I guess.

The plan really does seem to be either become living gods in New York when Aaron wins MVP and drags everyone to a championship. Or Aaron bombs again and everyone is fired. So either way who cares about 2025.

Maybe Douglas doesn’t literally think of it in those terms but it’s sure the aura the team has projected since the second ARod went down. They think they have everything but the QB in place to take down the Chiefs

I like the fact that re-signing Ashtyn Davis is at the same level of importance here as signing a borderline hall of fame LT.

My brother in Christ. There is ZERO chance that Tyrod Taylor would've played more than 2 games for the Jets last year if he had started out as the Jets' backup instead of Wilson. ZERO.

Lots of people do. Nate Tice loves him too. I'll root for him to succeed, but there's no evidence that he's anything more than a mid-tier backup.

I feel like you aren’t acknowledging that Taylor is slightly more fragile than Samual L Jackson’s character in Unbreakable.

Tyrod would rather eat a monster sack than turn the ball over.

Which is a major improvement from Wilson who will do both.

I am sure you would have been perfectly happy if they'd signed Ryan Tannehill or Drew Lock instead. All of these backups, even the solid ones, have critical flaws. That's why no one wants them starting.

Anyways, apparently the Jets have scouts at Bo Nix's workout LOL

gently caress it. Aaron Rodgers retires to run for VP with RFK Jr. Tyrod Taylor starts week 1, replaced by #10 overall pick Bo Nix by week 6. Jets posters do a Goon meet in a field in upstate New York and commit ritual suicide in order to cast a blood curse on Woody Johnson.

Considering they ended last season with a geriatric RV tourist at LB, more depth is welcome. Milano and Bernard are both coming back off injury, Dodson may or may not return. Insurance signing by Beane.
