Might not have to be a monster truck but just a real quality center who understands assignments and is both technically sound and cerebral at center. We were spoiled going from all-pro to all-pro at C for two decades but Richburg will certainly be a significant upgrade over the worst starting center in football that we have.

Either way, he's not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he'll get 5 or 6 once a deal is done. I'd be fine with that but honestly I don't think $7M is outrageous either. Over priced for him sure but I think he could get something similar on the open market. I don't believe his stats are indicative of how he played this year, as odd as that sounds.

I think he should be paid like a below average TE which would put him around that 5 mil range as you mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't get hosed on these deals just because we have the money. Macc needs to stay firm on these types of players. The above average guys, fine. We can have more wiggle room with those types of players. ASJ not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby816 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 The things with ASJ is he’s no big loss if he walks. In all honestly the only guy that hurts us if they leave is Davis. But we actually should many give him that long if a deal being he’s 29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnaby8787 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Per Tony Pauline: One player the Jets hope to re-sign is tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins, something we initially reported after the Super Bowl. Seferian-Jenkins is coming off a breakout campaign and was one of the most consistent threats on the team’s offense. The two sides will meet at the combine to discuss a contract, and the number I’m hearing for Seferian-Jenkins is a two-year deal at $6 million per season.

imaiden6669 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 7mil for ASJ he can walk I'm ok with giving a healthy Leggett a shot and I liked what I saw from Tomlinson and the other TE who got hurt earlier in the year but I would still sign a vet or draft a good blocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's slightly more than I care to give to him. I think he's worth like 5mill per, but we have money so 1mill per is no big deal. With an upgrade at QB hopefully his stats will increase.

I think he'd thrive if we got Cousins and if we don't get Cousins then we have about $40M more to play with this offseason. IMO pay our own guy like the 20th highest paid TE and forget about TE for 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
