That would be contingent on the Raiders being desirous and able to offer him a contract that he would agree to...what are the odds of that?
There has to be some art in negotiation. Not like let's do an extra unnecessary pick swap (in Rodgers deal) even though GB has no choice but to accept your offer without it. Overpaying could fuck you for a long time. You can think from Raiders perspective too: for example if it is a 5th or no deal, take the 5th, the guy is not playing anyway, makes business decisions to not try, requested a trade and will be a FA. Ultimately you need to arrive at a fair compensation from both sides. As you posted yourself 3d is what the belief is around the League, and I think it makes sense. We should not overpay but reach a reasonable deal, which to me is a 3d at most.
What ever will be will be. Won’t complain if we get Adams. But my first choice would be for a big run stuffer in the middle of our defense .
Dianna Russini on X: "My biggest takeaway from conversations with teams around the league? Many involved or have checked in believe the Jets are the team that will get this trade done." / X
Definitely. But if the deciding factor is the 3rd pick we got from Detroit -- again -- who cares? Rodgers is 41. Go for it. They made their bed. Now lay in it. No half measures
What on Earth would be the point of getting rid of a malcontent on the wrong side of 30 and his contract to trade for a malcontent on the wrong side of 30 and his contract?
Don't ever change... Adams is a go... if only to spark this moribund offense. https://x.com/iamSauceGardner/status/1841266077633839526
That little boy is smelling his finger! Where did he stick it? What does it all mean? Is there a proctological exam during the trade physical?
i'll throw this hypothetical out there, and since I'm not crazy about parting with any more draft capital in the almost inevitable event we find ourselves basically blowing it all up and starting from scratch at the end of next year at the latest: Garrett Wilson was in the media again last night essentially commenting on his unhappiness with how things are being done in NY. Who as myself and others have started chiming in over the last week probably doesn't end up ever reaching that "alpha" ceiling, at least while here, we had hoped on as a high lottery pick. He certainly hasn't shown enough consistency where you can comfortably project out a strong desire to want to pay him out a huge market contract in near future. I have concerns with Adams' age, but gun to my head and under a default assumption that Rodgers/Hackett are locked in here through 2025, if i'm picking between the 2 on which guy I believe can/will be more productive *HERE* between now and then I'm taking Davante over Wilson all day. So that stated, and again in the hypothetical scenario where we don't want to punt any more future rebuild assets away on a ship that is probably more likely to end up sinking regardless, what does a Garrett Wilson for Davante trade end up looking like? Does it end up being straight up? Do they throw in a sweetener? Does that even interest vegas if they can't find another serious mid season taker out there?
The initial quote, from a response to a question posed by Bart Scott on 98.7 ESPN New York, was posted by Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. “I don’t think we do a lot of different stuff to be honest,” Wilson said of the team’s offense. “When I watch football on Sundays and I see a lot of teams who mix it up and stuff like that. I don’t feel like we do that. I think we know our identity. It’s just about going out and executing it or figuring out if it’s going to work. I don’t think we’re trying a lot of different things. “I know, personally, my route tree hasn’t been what it has been the last two years as far as the stuff I’ve been running. It’s just about figuring out if it’s the right identity and whether it’s going to win games.”
I feel like I haven’t seen us complete or even attempt to complete a deep over or anything like that since Hackett’s gotten here. It’s all stop routes or back shoulders and shit.
I’d love to have Adams here and with the way he’s playing I’d ship Wilson out to get it done. The window is this season and next before a new rebuild anyway so might as well shoot their shot. I just don’t know how things will work when Rodger’s has a bunch of clowns on the OL who don’t protect him and account for an unreal amount of negative yardage.
Thanks. This really sucks. Also seems to be a stab at Rodgers not Hack bringing up last two years comment. We really need him to break out, this is not good at all. More...
