Well said. But this should not be a surprise, it is sad that we did hardly anything to fill the OL pipeline through the draft. We literally refused to use first and second day picks to really bolster the bread and butter of any good offense.
Thanks Brick. Always a classy player, who just answered the call. You will be missed. Hopefully Jets will retire his number.
Great all-time Jet. He was on the decline and honestly for the pay cut they wanted him to take and given his comments regarding the Concussion movie I can see why he's retiring. Supposedly he's been in touch with the Jets so this really shouldn't be a surprise to them. It's probably why they brought in an OL early on in FA. I'm sure Mac has options in mind. He might be able to trade Mo for a 1st rd pick and get a LT there, he could trade Mo to a team for their LT (if there is a team with a b/u nearly as good as the starter) and get a pick. They could opt to sign McCown / Hoyer and use $ to trade for a guy like Clady. They could trade Mo for pick(s) and sign both Clady and Fitz etc. The next few weeks leading up to the draft will be interesting. I'm not sure D'brick retiring means they sign Fitz right away, they can still play the waiting game. The next few deals (replacing LT, getting a QB and decision on Mo) will really give us an insight into Mac and his vision for the future.
Yup. Can't ignore it any longer... We need Oline in this draft. Probably going to need to sign some vets as well. Create depth and competition. Incentive deals. Make the players want to earn a starting spot on the line.
Uhhh Taner Purdum wore number 60 in 4th grade flag football, junior high school, high school and college and has been itching for that number for years. Brick refused to sell it to him. I don't think that number is being retired anytime soon. _
Obviously not. But since it seems to bother you so much to be called a troll, even though you clearly are one, it seems you aren't very self-aware. I'm just here to help you soul search. You can call me your spirit guide, if it makes you feel more comfortable. Or maybe "shaman tatonka".
