Is Gardner worth a huge contract once his rookie deal is done?

You need to find the stats when they are matched up together. Sauce doesn't travel, these numbers don't really show anything.

 

yeah hes had some battles with Diggs for sure but its not exactly man to man

 

I don't know how you can know that. My theory is that Sauce was drafted as high as he was because the Jets needed someone to counter Hill who had just signed with Miami after he rejected the Jets offer. I can't give stats on head to head match up but I think we can get an idea from these stats that both receivers have been kept more or less at bay the past two years and much of that is because of the play of Sauce.

 

profootball reference or PFF probably have it behind a paywall.

 

That's the other consideration which also improves his stats. He plays so little man, so how much do we pay a zone 3rds guy. Not saying he cant play man well, but we don't see it enough against top WRs to know.

 

This year they're rotating coverage, so it's hard to know. I think they should just let him cover the other teams #1 like Revis used to do. So what if they don't throw it his way. At least they won't have to worry about that guy. Sauce vs a good TE is a bad matchup for us.

 

yeah well saleh and ulbrich think their scheme is the fucking 85 bears or 2000 ravens and don't think they need to adjust shit with it.

 

Those are the dates of the games.

 

I understand the sentiment, but we pretty much have that on the Jets and we haven't seen any results.

 

Great in coverage, soft when it comes to tackling.

During games I haven't heard his name mentioned much up to this point of the season.

For a CB (much like a OL) that's a good thing. Right?

 

The jets did not draft him because of hill. They drafted him because he was the best cornerback prospect in a long while and they needed a cornerback. It’s pretty simple.
