And same goes for 42. No way we give them the chance to grab our guy there either. Go sign Ford at DT and Jones at C. So those aren't glaring holes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suh is still my number 1 DT left and can fill in right beside Q and he has played in several big games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Douglas should sign a guy just in case. At least to give teams the impression we’re comfortable with what we have going into the draft. Right now, I assume Becton/Brown at LT and Becton/Mitchell at RT. If all are healthy (a big if) we should be OK at OT. Like many of you, I am concerned because JD has been trying to fix the OL and it has not worked well. All 3 above have ? entering the season This is why we all want to see OT at 13. Who would we sign to further muddy the waters? Are they going to be any better than Brown? If we miss out on OT at 13 we can still trade down and get one later in round 1 or later in the draft. The point is that I do not see a benefit of signing another OT when we still need a DT, OC and LB. I would not be concerned about a team jumping us. This years OT's all have warts that teams will probably let the draft come to them regarding OT. If the consensus top 3 are gone, get the best OG. AVT could play OT if needed. Besides, the weakest link on the OL right now is Tomlinson. Get a blue chip OG and let them battle for starting duties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby816 Posted March 30, 2023 Author Share Posted March 30, 2023 OBJ asking price too much. Reportedly he wants 15mill. No way. I'd give him a low base with a game bonus added salary. Not performance based so he has to play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep Davis and roll with Wilson, Davis, Lazard, Hardman. As a run first team having guys like Lazard and Davis are huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is ready to play a full season then he has no reason not to sell himself above the market value. Jets should sit on that until the price is right.

Dude is 31 coming off an ACL and has missed a ton of games in recent years. I think Davis skill set fits better. OBJ is more like Wilson who is light years better. Stick Davis or Lazard in the slot and utilize their run blocking skills. Not a fan of OBJ at any price really. Jefferson/Ford from SEA at DT, and Jones at C make way more sense.

Jones and Ford wouldn't break the bank. OBJ is realistic if we do a low base with incentives. And make those incentives games played. Will keep him from being selfish. Attach stats to his incentives and he will be a me 1st guy fro sure. Make it games played and he will take care of his body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but we are tight on money already and I would want to add another vet at FS and ILB like Kwon. Much rather spread the money around to a few vets at key positions and not to OBJ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be part of the compromise with that '25 conditional pick that the Jets apparently want if Rodgers were to retire after the 2023 season. Would you prefer to pick at 13 as opposed to 15? Absolutely. Are you going to walk away from a deal because of it? Absolutely not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
