JetsandI Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 1 minute ago, Bobby816 said: I think that’s the backup plan if we can’t get Rodgers. I fully expect us to trade for Rodgers before FA hits and if we can’t come to terms switch directions to Jimmy G. I have us out on Carr now bc I think we stay focused on Rodgers that Carr moves while we’re trying. I fail to see GM who has been a strong belief in building the team via draft will give up a premium pick(s). That is why I don't think Rodgers will come. We will see.

JD and Saleh will lose jobs either way. Thanking to "traded for Rodgers" new regime may struggle with adjustment via FA and early draft picks. If JD pulled CWood's suggested trade, Jets could have merely an issue with FA movement (without knowledge of future salary issue). That is better than nothing.

Sandwhich2 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I'm not buying the Woody pressuring guys to do stuff talk. I think it's lazy analysis. Trading for Rodgers absolutely does not seem uncharacteristic for JD. He's willing to make splash moves, but only if they make sense for the team. Trading for Rodgers makes so much sense to me.

JetsandI Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 All we need is Hall coming back 100 percent healthy. However, I think Jets should draft one to complement Hall as I am not sure about Ty Johnson as a part of Hackett's plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if that is significant for back to back drafts. Plus, we have to worry about Rodgers' wrestling with retirement. In CWood's proposal trade, we slipped in 1st by 2 spots and lowering future value if Rodgers quits. That way Jets still have solid draft options.

GB doesn't have a ton of leverage for a guy threatening to retire and is about to be 40 no matter how good he is. Keeping this years 1st is key to fixing the OL so I'm not coughing that up. We can fill the other areas in FA with some ring chasers and backloaded deals. Back load deals, restructure, and go all in for 2023 and 2024 get Rodgers his other ring. It'll all come crashing down in 2025 when we have to pay the piper but we can be legit Superbowl contenders with BUF showing some cracks. The time is now no more worrying about cap space go all in.
