BlaZeN37 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 With all of the Jets new FA signings & re-signings, I figured we could use a thread dedicated to discussing the specifics of their new contracts. Over The Cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaZeN37 Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 Let’s start with Daryl Roberts. I was a little skeptical after hearing the Jets were giving him a 3 year $18M deal. It actually ended up being a very team friendly contract: ‘19 - $4.5M Cap Hit w/ $4M guaranteed ‘20 - $6M Cap Hit w/ $0 guaranteed ‘21 - $7.5M Cap Hit w/ $0 guaranteed In essence its a 1 year deal worth $4.5M. I’m sure Roberts will be given the opportunity to win the #2 corner spot. If he is unable to fill that role adequately the Jets can move on after this year with $0 dead money. However, if he wins that spot and plays well the Jets will have their #2 corner locked up for cheap over the next 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby816 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I find it odd we haven't spent the remaining 35mill we can with still having plenty for the draft still. We shouldn't be penny pinching at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they make the expected jump to playoff contender this season then they can use next year to bring in pieces to put them over the top. My hope for this offseason is that they can get Ansah on a 1 year prove it deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sapo28 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 It would be nice to have some substantial cap to work with next year but I don't see anyone out bidding the Colts for high end FAs next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More options will hit the market after teams get their draft prospects and more options will be added after vets get beat in preseason. There aren't too many names out there at the moment. Outside of Barr, we really landed everyone we were attached to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.O Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 In regards to our 35 mill I can see us waiting for certain players to be cut I.e. Robert Quinn, Dre Kirkpatrick...ect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Quinn, Dre Kirkpatrick...ect I think this is it. Macc is just being patient and waiting for players they truly want. He is probably being influenced by Gase. Gase talked a lot about not rushing the process of building his coaching staff. Jets seem to be using a similar philosophy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaZeN37 Posted March 19, 2019 Author Share Posted March 19, 2019 Henry Anderson’s contract details are out... 3 years $25M w/ $17M guaranteed ‘19 - $7.3M Cap Hit w/ $13M guaranteed ‘20 - $8.3M Cap Hit w/ $7M guaranteed ‘21 - $9.5M Cap Hit w/ $0 guaranteed Yet another contract without a signing bonus, making this contract a 2 year $15.5M deal. I’m sure he had a healthy market so I don’t mind it. That’s starter money though not rotational linemen money. Not sure how the Jets can justify taking Quinnen Williams at 3 if they have any plans on re-signing Leonard Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shouldn't be penny pinching at all. There's no reason to spend all the money if we don't have to. It gets rolled over to next year, meaning we can sign another 2-3 big-named players next year. Why bust it all on players this year if they're not worthy of it? What I do expect to happen: sign a bunch of 1 year deals, which is what we're starting to see now. A lot of these vets may have to wait until after the draft to sign, which is where I see us being most active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone keeps talking about Justin Houston, but he will probably get more then a 1 year deal. I’d rather sign Ezekiel Ansah to a 1 year deal, which is probably what he will be forced to take. Not sure why we aren’t talking about him at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree in part, this isn't the kind of groundbreaking contract that would preclude the Jets from taking him if they thought he was the clear BPA. $7.5 million is a nickel rusher nowadays. Remember, we once drafted Leonard Williams even when Sheldon and Mo were at the top of their games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t put anything past him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
