Good morning Jet fans. Well another one bites the dust. It seems like a lot of free agent targets are still electing to go elsewhere. In this case I think it’s for the best. $18 million for a part time role player would have been a poor investment. I posted this thought in a couple of Jet FB groups and was challenged by people saying he was not a roll player. Perhaps not. But if your a coaching staff that values the health and well bing of your players than he’s a roll player. I’m not putting Odell out there in a full time starters roll because he is coming off two ACL surgeries. That’s a lot for anyone but especially for a player over 30 who makes his living running pass patterns that require intricate cuts that put tremendous stress on the knees. I enjoy you posting little blips on some of these less heralded prospects. I had read a little on Shepherds QB Tyson Badget. A lot of people like him as a late round UDFA QB option. He’s got some NFL shills. Very competitive guy. Having watched some of his video you can’t help but notice their OT Fischer. I think he would look great in green and white as a developmental 5 th or 6th round option. As always David, be well and thanks for yet another excellent read!👍

18 million for a player who has torn the same ACL twice is a lot of risk. Add the in the fact his age and his penchant for complaining on his target amount, the Ravens probably did the Jets a favor. Taking targets away from Garrett Wilson would have been criminal. I realize a different wr would take targets away from Wilson but maybe not as many and without the moaning. Could Corey Davis be kept on a reworked contract, Mims?

As per Cimini, Jets have some high hopes for practice squad player Irvin Charles.

It’s possible that Becton could be the key to drafting Schmitz, if The Jets deem Becton healthy and ready to play, 13 is too high to draft a center but Becton healthy would put the Jets in a position to trade down a few spots and pickup extra draft capital.. Linderbaum considered the class of the 2022 center class was taken 25th.

If your argument is that Becton is not reliable due to injury situations the last two years then the same argument could be used about Beckham.

This Beckham deal doesn't surprise me in the least. I never thought that he would ever sign with the Jets. He's another prima donna who is looking for his last big payday before the end of his career. He knew the Jets couldn't give him the deal that he wants all along and I feel he used the hype as a way to get someone else to give him what he wants.

And I also didn't think he come because, in his mindset he always has to be the primary receiver, and he wouldn't have been here, and he would have been a disruption. I think Hardman is going to do fine here and he has similar traits to Beckham as far as his physical makeup is concerned. The Ravens must have been really desperate.
