Just think this is the case of choosing a younger player over him or possibly bringing Matthews back after week 2. 5 minutes ago, y2lamanaki said: The beat writers were on money with this prediction. Any idea why we played Day so much against LAC? Possibly to trade him? Does Thomas start over him if we keep him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 The Pats released Brian Hoyer. Quality backup. This is why the entire CJ thing is bizarre to me. I just don't know why anyone would trade for him. Really hope I am wrong lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a FA after the year, and I really don't think that he'll be back. We have a lot of 3-techs in that room. But it was weird to be out there with the starting units earlier in the preseason and then still out there with the roster fodder in game 4. Maybe the plan was always to showcase him.

But I wonder if CJ is getting paternity leave and he's not going to be available for the first game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Think Y2 said it best on the podcast when saying that Shanny could easily find another CJ beathard (probably whenever he wanted to) to try and mold. But let's see. Brian Hoyer. Cardale Jones. Kyle Lauletta more than likely. There are just a lot of guys out there who are similar to CJ at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was 1st team in OTAs as well as TC. Just made little sense for him being the lone starter on defense still playing the last game of preseason.

Raiders take a chance on him though right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But lets be real, Polite was a third round pick who couldn't even make the roster his rookie season. He's very likely to be the highest draft pick cut. I don't remember a lot of third rounders cut their rookie season on any given year. Maybe 1 or 2? That would be like a 95% retention rate on 3rd round picks their rookie season, and he coudln't even do that. Then add into that equation that the Jets have one of the worst edge situations in the NFL. What does that tell us about Polite at this point?

Just to add to this - it was the first time since 1986 that the Jets cut a rookie they selected in the first three rounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted August 31, 2019 Author Share Posted August 31, 2019 Add DeShone Kizer to the never ending parade of back up quarterbacks out there. Cut by Green Bay. So glad we didn't jump on that grenade that year. Makes the CJ pick not so bad lol. Lauletta as well. Giants tried to trade him, no takers apparently.

Pretty certain Reuben has "fixed" any chance this would happen.... Did not ever care for this prospect and not about to start. He sabotaged himself so hard it is ridiculous. He is his own worst enemy. He hasn't been good since the collegiate season ended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
