McGovern and Fant would save $9m EACH next year if cut. $3.5m for GVR I certainly see your point. However, who will be the first OT to enter the game when Becton goes down? Edoga? Not comforting if you’re Zach. We have cap room next year. I just don’t see the point in replacing 2 serviceable players with rookies when we have a lot more to concern ourselves with. If you include a new RG (presumably), that would be a new RG and C. I’d rather pay for the continuity than go cheap with the unknown at this stage.

JetsandI Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I would expect Fant to start RT. If Becton is down, Fant moves to LT as Moses steps in at RT. Just because being a swing tackle certainly doesn't mean it is limited to a back up material only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Fant is cut next year, we would have to spend a high pick on OT so we are not left with just Edoga about r a late round pick. This has nothing to do with the current situation in which I advocate for keeping Fant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right there OT is his future in pro.🤭 Anyway, his body movement is nice. Shame that OKST had no use for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT should remain one of high priority for Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame that OKST had no use for him. He's at Virginia and just went off for 122yds. lol I'm only looking this deep into TEs because it's one out of 3 positions on offense I know we are likely going to need. Completely different on defense. I'm not sure if there is a position they shouldn't touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsandI Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 After today's game, I think Jets should draft at least OL before 4th round annually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsfan4life51 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Love that name, I'm all on board. However, I think one of the rookies will win a long term starting job opposite Hall and we need pass rush help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very likely we're going to use those picks on both sides of the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you ask me… JD clearly values OL more so than CB. So the likelihood of us using 1st rounders on a guy are on OL right now. It’s also a very good OL class. So that’s good for us. The edge class is actually what seems pretty weak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The edge class is actually what seems pretty weak I agree about JD, but as you mentioned, it is only week one. A lot of these prospects on both sides can start showing flaws and drop in rankings by the end of the season. It happens every year. I was rooting for us to draft Ben Cleveland for like 2 years. No one is wrong for wanting to go oline at all. I just don't want to assume early or force a position. Don't want to end up like the Rams did years ago when they picked Robinson over Khalil Mack. It's all about comparing the talent out of the needs for me. Edited September 14, 2021 by rickyt31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
