Darron Lee won't be wearing Brown

  • Apparently all first-rounder Darron Lee was worth to new Jets GM Adam Gase was one sixth-round pick in next year's draft.

    The more labels you have for yourself, the dumber they make you. "When you win, say nothing. When you lose, say less." Paul Brown

  • Well....apparently he wasn't even worth that to 30 other teams, as that must have been the best offer he got for him

  • huh? isnt he one of the top rated 43 olb'ers in football?

    edit: nm he played ilb'er in the jets 34. I thought they went back to a 43 last year. Ah well....i guess that was a good call then not going after him. But the chiefs are now in a 43 apparently and he'll be competing there for the will lb'er spot. 

  • I read where Wilkes only has 2 inebackers on the 90% of the time, so I think with Schoeber, Kirksey, Avery and the two dawgs we just drafted we should be able put together a nice corps.

    Daron Lee would not fit as a role player and is not a good locker room guy which is why Gase shuttled him 20 minutes after he became GM.

    Reminds me of Dorsey cutting Kenny Britt the second he walked into the building.

  • I guess what I don't get on lb's is? Than why grab 2 in the draft. 1 FA. And 2 or 3 more as udfa? I guess I need more camp media blotter to believe this theroy

  • i hope we at least tried to bring jamie back and didnt insult him with the offer. Having him there mentoring our new guys would have been perfect. 

  • Collins signed for a lil more than vet minimum, very incentive laden 1yr deal.

    Linebackers make great special teamers, first of all, so bring them on.

    I think Taki and Mack are brought in to challenge Kirksey and Schoebert for those front two positions, if not this year then next.

    Avery is the Wild Card that is the best pass rusher of the group, they'll be lining him up everywhere. The free agent we signed, Taylor is depth/ST

    If you want to see what this current admin thinks of LB corps, they have kept 3rd and 4th rd picks from the previous regime and added two 5ths and a 3rd.

    We have a 3rd, 4th, and 5th starting, backed up by a 3rd and 5th.

    They are looking for versatile guys with good leadership skills that can plug and play with the first team or special teams. As Dorsey would say, "Football Players", not stars.

    Stars they like at QB, RB, WR, Edge and CB ...

    ?? all that's showing is his signing bonus (Spotrac and Over the Cap) which was a piddly $150,000.  Could be nothing else is guaranteed.  

  • Saw 250k guaranteed, 1m base, +4m incentives, shefter tweet iirc? I don't Twitter's, just see them posted by others.
