The Jets are better off with Glennon than Cutler.

Cap hit of $9m and 0 dead money for a center that didn't see much of a dropoff when his backup was playing this year. Pretty much expected. Great Jet.

Probably has a couple years of above-average play left if he stays healthy.

I liked Nick a whole lot better before he started showing up at Trump rallies... He was a great Jet though.

I think the Jets are truly dumb enough to think Hack is the guy and it's gonna go just as we all expect.

He really wasn't even very good that year.

If Cousins plays out the year on the franchise tag he's an unrestricted FA next year, correct?

He's good enough that he SHOULD be picked up, but I'm not sure that anyone will.

If you want Darnold just roll with the unholy combo of Hack and Petty in order to get us as close to #1 as possible.

I'm semi on-board with this plan.

I am too but they won't do that.

The only way this works is if Bowles and Macc are given the time to actually rebuild. I have no problem with any of these releases or the impending Sheldon trade.

If they fire them after going 4-12 next year then they're clowns.

They should fire them for winning anything more than 2 games.

The Jets should be all over him, man

I don't really agree. He's fine but he isn't going to be a franchise cornerstone for the next 5 years. I'd rather the Jets tear it all down and not give him multiple years and a big guarantee.

That with an average team around him, he's good enough to get you in the playoff mix, and that with a good team around him, he's good enough to win a Super Bowl.

I think that is like one notch above what he is.

mike glennon looked awful when he played.

His numbers are fine. I'd give him a high money short on guarantees front loaded deal and give him a year to see what he is. I'm not committing to him long term though.

My guess is that contracts that are offering Glennon $14-15m "per season", if they exist, are effectively for one season with no guarantees beyond that.

I'd give him that.

Yeah, tender costs are:

1st = $4m
2nd = $2.75m
Original round = $1.75m

If you think he might be snatched the difference between a 2nd and a 5th is worth more then $1m unless you're slammed up against the cap.

He's worth $2.75M.

Fair point, but it would be nice to see 1-2 decent-sized names actually sign with the team this offseason.

No, he just misses the playoffs every year which hopefully will continue.

Do you mean the Buffalo game where Fitzpatrick threw 3 picks and had a passer rating of like 43, and Marshall had 126 yards and a touchdown?

If he doesn't drop a TD it's a completely different game and the Jets probably win easily and don't have to throw the ball so much trying to come back in the 4th quarter. He was terrific for the Jets that season but that drop did in fact, happen.

Yeah, being down by 2 whole points at the end of the 3rd really forces you to abandon the run, I'm sure.

I would trade two 1sts including 6 overall for Cousins. I wouldn't even bat an eye we're so desperate.
