    If they are taking in his salary, they must expect Reddick to be gone

    The only slight positive is there is a relatively easy out from the Adams contract after this season (his base salary in 25 and 26 is over $35m each year!)

    Kind of nuts that across 4 players we are spending around $40m on the receiver position this season

    And JD continues to exacerbate the terrible selection of Zach Wilson by first trying to cover it up with Rogers which turns into trading for Adams.

    Instead of doing this, how about trading for a left tackle who can, oh, I don't know.... BLOCK!

    I’m in the worst place a fan can be with this franchise. Apathy!

    I can't wait to finally get to the apathy stage of this.

    Forget reaching the Super Bowl in my lifetime, I really don't think that they'll make the playoffs in that span either.

    Duct tape on the Titanic.....

    JD doesn't care; He's going to do whatever he can to save his job, even if that means blowing draft picks like dollar bills in a strip club.
    This may or may not fix the big picture, but it will make the games more fun to watch... enjoy the ride now, because if they don't win, it's going be a huge uphill climb for whoever JD's replacement is....

    That's exactly how I feel about the Raiders. Not that anyone here cares.

    BREAKING NEWS: In a desperate attempt to save his job, Jets awful GM John Idzik trades for wide receiver Percy Harvin.

    We're now in the familiar spot of having our GM sabotage our future to save his job when he should've already been fired. We never learn.

    yeah. We’re looking at the next GM trading Sauce, Reed, Hall, or any other player of value to build

    We're at that point where Idzik and Douglas qualify to be in that Office meme where corporate needs you to find the differences between the two pictures.

    Woody Johnson is a desperate man. He's in panic mode and wants this team to make the playoffs so he can get that monkey off his back. The bottom line is this team is so undisciplined that Woody thinks bringing in Davonte will solve the issue of penalties. The Jets are the most penalized team in the NFL and until you fix that, you will continue to suck. They need to hold players accountable for their mistakes. Woody Johnson is the most delusional and inept owner in the NFL.

    It's risky, but I think you've got a shot at winning this bet.

    Wow. You guys got Devante? I don't even know what to say.

    Congrats? Honestly I hope he does well with you.

    So the Raiders got a third that could turn into a second and you take all his salary?

    Seems like this trade could have been done two weeks ago, but what the fuck do I know.

    The thing that makes this team truly frustrating to support is that we don't even learn the right lessons from past failures, so there's no visible improvement in how the franchise is run. We make the same mistakes over and over.

    Too much draft capital into DL. Not enough emphasis on offense, both from a personnel and coaching perspective. Not firing GMs and the HCs at the same time to give the new GM a clean slate. Overpaying for aging vets who underperform and sabotage the future because of what we gave up to acquire them. It's maddening.

    You cannot improve how a franchise is run if you don't learn from past mistakes.
