Any reason why? 526 snaps with 2 penalties and 1 sack allowed doesn't look terrible on the surface.

Wouldn't hate bringing him into KC to compete for the RG spot.

Mosley opted out, looks like they’re clearing up more space for someone. Maybe Clowney.

Possibly. Although there was a report that came out recently that said we are not interested in Clowney. But he’s the only free agent that makes sense. So, if we are going to sign someone, it’ll be him. Otherwise, we likely just sit on the cap and let it roll to next year.

Yeah, most other FAs probably wouldn’t have required cutting Winters to bring in. 

Weird move at face value if nothing is done with that extra space.

To it seems like a cap save. Saved them close to $8m. They had the replacement already on the roster. He also finished each of the past two seasons on the IR

The Jets had a bad line last year to be sure but their ineptitude is exaggerated.

They were bottom 5 in a league with 10+ bad O-lines. They were not all-time bad.

One of the biggest losers in the history of US pro sports played there last year and his failure always has to be about his O-line

There are actual Lev Bell fanatics who preach the gospel of POOR BABY! to defend him.

Odd that his success in Pittsburgh was all about him though.

 

The Jets played 4 games where they had absolutely no chance of competing. (In NE with Darnold and the 3 games without him)

They went 6-4 after that horrible NE game and Darnold was a 90+ rated passer in those 10 games.

He also only got sacked 26 times in those 10 compared to their QBs going down 26 times in those first 6 weeks.

  • Faulk and Siemian went down 18 times in about 100 drop backs!

Even little snowflake improved to 7.73 per catch in his last 9 games compared to 6.03 during that ugly first 6 weeks.

Odd why you turned this into a Bell bashing post but the OL was awful last year.  Only MIA was worse.  Let's not mix Sam's ability to escape pressure with better OL play.  Sam was running for his life most weeks. Jets yards before contacts was last in the NFL.  I think that says all you need to know about their run blocking.  Their line was terrible and so is Winters.  Not to mention he can't stay healthy.

Yea. Anyone who watched the Jets play last year knows how bad our OL was. Darnold’s mobility helped but the missed assignments and poor center play were the worse that I’ve seen since the Jets OL of 2018 👀 when Spencer Long was snapping curve balls at Darnold. Remember those days? Haha. Still can’t believe Bowles kept Long in to snap balls with a broken hand.
