Im as pro get a safety as anyone but the day any safety is worth the same as a high end left tackle is the day they take away pads and give everyone flags on their hips. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadaluvsdallas Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) Should do a TV show on the Jets FO. It'd be a great comedy special. Funny stuff Edited November 3, 2019 by canadaluvsdallas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s better suited for a 3-4 defense. I disagree that he couldn’t thrive as a 4-3 DE. But even if you accept that, his floor as a really good situational rusher would still be light years better than what we got from Taco.

So we weren't THAT wrong. I just think he didn't like being a cowboy tbh. There's only so much you can predict on prospects. We just had bad luck.

So when you have a project guy lime Taco, Rod comes up short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matts4313 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Apparently the Jets are actually insane. Good for them for shooting for the stars though. Nothing ventured nothing gained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not old (for an OL) and his contract is fantastic. Hell I am annoyed that they would even ask that. I would pay a lot for Adams. But there is about 5-10 players there is almost nothing I would part with them for. Smith, Martin, Fredrick, Dak, Zeke, Jaylon, LVE, Sean Lee (yes, I said lee) are all non-touchables. Then you have Cooper and Gallup that are touchable, but the price would be insanely high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a comparison between TJ Watt and Taco Charlton, you have one Pro-Bowler, and one who couldn't last 3 seasons for the team that drafted him. They were quite wrong.

DaBoys Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 (edited) Taco is doing very well in Miami, but he isn't doing TJ Watt well. Looking back at that draft our hands were tied. If they wanted more than a situational pass rusher with the first round pick then they had to pass on Watt. If they wanted more talent, then they needed to pass on Taco. The only players that might have been worth that pick are JuJu, and Kamara, and hell we picked Taco AND Chido over those guys.

Nextyearfordaboyz Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Benson Mayowa has 5.5 sacks this season. We have really let some world-beaters walk out of the building, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are #19 in sacks per game. Oakland (with Mayowa) is #25. Miami (with Taco) is #30. So, no. The answer is that Taco and Mayowa are mediocre players and sacks are a somewhat flukey statistic.
