A 5th round pick. 29 y/o and more a certainty at LT than anyone we could pick up in the draft.

I don't see the problem with it considering our e would have to wait on a young player anyway.

No starting LT around in the fifth round.

Right but you're locking in a vet and giving no opportunity to a younger and much cheaper player(roster flexibility). Pats and Seahawks do this constantly. Throwing money all over the lot for free agents, especially without a long term solution at QB and were right back in Tannenbaum doom.

That requires depth and ability to find gems late. The Jets...

Funny how you say this and refuse to view Fitz and the waste of time he is in that.

Second, LT isn't a place where you throw someone into. Typically, drafted LT start at the right side where they are groomed to move to LT. Clady signing is hurting no one players progress.

Stop it

It's a 5th. How often do those pan out? Clady is a sure bet as long as he's fine. This could potentially be a steal.

If you consider league average QB play a waste of time when we've had 6 years of bottom of the league QB play I don't know what to tell you other than keep believing that. If they want to draft someone and start him by all means start that process.

And you see progress with playing time. Would last year been much different if we never signed Skrine, washed up Cro or Gilchrist and Williams and Miles started? Doubtful...

It's more the contract than the pick. But daft picks just playing in a general win for the team because they're cheap. Maccagnans probably screwed up the cap so bad we have no other choice to move Mo or let him walk...which sucks.

The Clady signing is fine when you look at it in a vacuum, but with the overall moves we've made this looks like Tannenbaum territory.

Classic goal post move away from your long term opportunity talk to short term success production by a stop gap qb who hurts the opportunity you were first talking about. :heh:
And you see progress with playing time.

Funny how you say this now but want the jets to lean on a 34 y/o journeyman that stops the progress a younger player can provide. :heh:

This above is irrelevant

who Petty? That's 2-14.

And of course that's not irrelevant. Next man up is what good franchises do. They don't overpay for a slot corners

Genos luck :troll:

Fitz retires,they let geno start. Clady and Marshall get hurt and due to the teams brutal schedule jets start 2-5.

Fan base blames geno :lolbron:

After seeing the schedule, Geno RIP. Even if he performs like a franchise QB we're still liable to lose most of the first 7 games. I see 3 possible wins. More realistically 2, one against the Bills and one against the Ravens. Maybe we can stop Alex Smith and Kansas city too. Maybe.
:snoop:

The problem is it seems the team hasn't decided if they are rebuilding or competing and are kinda stuck in between.

Next off season should be interesting. Team is in limbo this year. Not good enough. Last year was there shot and fitz threw it away.

Fitz had almost won me over by that game and then he self destructs

Petty or Geno.

No playoffs = no playoffs

Young player getting reps to find out who he is to our future > a journeyman old man who we know he is

You really need this spelled out and then have the nerve to purposely not get it
