Skrine and Carpenter both under 30. Cro is gone next season. You already said you liked the Revis signing. Who else? Marshall's been great. Gilchrist is under 30 too.

So when Revis wasn't here what was the excuse for not paying him?
Marlostanfield.

I don't mind having Revis on a reasonable contract but that never happen since he's about money and nothing wrong with that. He hasn't been same player since his injury.

I haven't even mentioned Fitzpatrick. Not even once. I'm not opposed to bringing him back but that's mostly because there's nothing out there for him to transition towards. Fitz is hardly impacting any long term outlook for this team
We spent all that money to compete now. But if we dont make the playoffs what was the point? We are then an aging team with a worse draft pick. That makes the season a failure.
How does that help the rebuild we are apparently in?
I dont see this team as a rebuild at all. If you spend a bunch of money to buy a few extra wins just to worsen your draft position thats a sure fire way to fail at a rebuild. Might as well just call ourselves the dolphins.
We can still easily make the playoffs though and that makes all this moot.
We have enough talent on this team to make some noise in the playoffs.

We spent the money because we had to. The only guy we spent money on that hasn't worked out really is Cro..and even he's had his moments.
And we didn't just sign a bunch of geezers like you tried to point out. Gilchrist, Skrine, Carpenter...even Henderson have all been solid and all under 30.

if we were rebuilding, geno would be starting 
You guys suddenly trying to paint this team as a win now Super Bowl or bust team is pretty transparent. We won 4 games last year. Our drafts have been abysmal. Have some patience and enjoy meaningful December football.

You don't start a shytty player just to start him.

He needs to be
Hes a way better qb then fitz when it comes to talent
Jus needs to be developed

No. If anything we know it isn't a Super Bowl team which is why some here want a long term solution at QB, but regardless, because the drafts have been abysmal, that must be fixed before we can assume every halfway decent player here is expendable.
If the Jets could draft, develop and cultivate talent from within, we wouldn't be destined to go defense for the 7th or 8th straight year like they will in May
So youll be happy with missing the playoffs and having a worse draft pick?
Right. And this upcoming draft will be Maccagnans first with his scouting department-Bradway was still here for the 2015 draft.
Williams and Mauldin seem to be at least starters as well. Putting the cart before the horse a bit

shytty players start all the time

nobody's gonna be happy about this scenario..
but i'm not going to call a 10-11 win season a failure because some tiebreakers didn't go our way.
