Jets QB Rumor Connects Garrett Wilson to Justin Fields Signing

Kinda makes sense

I really hope not.  I like Fields so I’d hate to see his career ruined by this organization.  They’re horrible!

Fields need to get out of Pittsburgh, Tomlin is anything but a QB whisperer. I agree, the Jets may be worse , especially with a rookie head coach 

[WhiteWonder 2,905]

I want nothing to do with Fields and sincerely hope Wilson does not want out of NY contingent on Fields. 

In theory, the Jets should have kept Rodgers because they need a bridge QB. A bridge QB can be a crappy, life long backup but it could also be a solid veteran at the end of their careers... so why not have it be a guy who can get you to the playoffs? Rodgers showed signs of old Rodgers over the second half of the season. So instead they take some dead cap hit and move on... still need someone viable while you groom a rookie or Jordan Travis. 

I really hope they go for Cousins after Atlanta cuts him.   Jets suck, Woody Johnson sucks, but one thing they have consistently done wrong regardless of regime is draft rookie QBs and throw them into the fire right away. It doesn't work in New York. So I am hopeful that they draft someone like Jaxson Dart, or if they believe in last years 5th round pick Travis have them sit and learn for a year+ behind someone like Cousins. 

Fields is going to want to start and keep starting. I don't see a franchise QB and I don't see someone who has a lot to offer a rookie in terms of mentorship.

In ff Rodgers avg a little over 18 points per game in his first 8 games, and little over 18 points per game last nine games, in the last nine games he did have two great games in which he had less than 9 ff points.  Good move for the Jets.  Imo.  

Im not so sure Fields is the answer, but he’s a much better pick over Cousins, who proved last season, that he’s done.

There's no upside with Rodgers, any team that gets Rodgers isn't winning anything anytime soon. I'd much rather take a shot on the upside of Fields, he's still so young

well, hes at least serviceable.

I do think Rodgers is the better QB today, but in a year or so that wont be the case.  Due to his age, there is not a lot of tread left in the tires.  If you do not think you will win in the next year, there is no point in trying to make it work with Rodgers.

he threw for just under 4000 yards, 28 TD and 11 INT.

not actually bad stats if you can keep the TD-INT ratio at the point that it was.   Personally I dont think the implosion in New York is 100% on Rodgers.

a good part of this is the Defense was not nearly as good as they were the year prior.    Team lost a lot of close games too.    I figured they would come out of the gate slow.  Rodgers hadnt thrown a ball in quite some time and the start against a Healthy San fran team to start the year wasnt a good way to open the season.   7 of their losses were 1 score games.

in my opinion, if they win half of those they are likely in the hunt for a playoff spot.   if they win 2/3 of those they are likely a playoff team.

but it looks like Rodgers is gone, so the team needs the next best option (whatever that happens to be)  Is that player Fields?   I dont know.   it could be....

FF does not equal real life.  Justin Fields is not a franchise QB.  At this point in their careers, neither are guys like Rodgers or Cousins. However, Rodgers and Cousins are long time, smart veterans who a new, rookie QB can learn behind.  And Rodgers is better than Fields for 1-2 years. If Cousins improves with more time removed from his own injury, he may be better as well for the next 1-2 years.

Rodgers is gone.   The issue in NY? Woody Johnson. Even if he fired Saleh because that's what Rodgers wanted, he's a terrible owner for doing so. If he did it of his own accord, hes also a terrible owner for doing so. Saleh was not a good coach but the team was 2-3. Firing Saleh and replacing him with Ulbrich as interim HC who was way in over his head was going to make the defense suffer as a result and the offense was never going to get any better until Rodgers shook off the rust.  The wins never came but Rodgers looked a lot better in the second half based on the eye test, not just the numbers on paper. 

The Jets need to draft a QB in round 2, or see if Jordan Travis is anything. They need to let a young guys sit and learn behind a smart veteran. 

The problem with Fields is he wants to be a starter and get a shot at being a teams franchise guy. I don't think he is getting a team over the hump. Best case scenario, he starts for a season and keeps it entertaining with his legs and a few big throws and then loses the job to someone they draft this April.

People said the same thing about Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts. I think Fields has a shot to be great. I'd much rather have him then some old QB like Rodgers or Cousins. Build with youth!

I just don't see Fields skills being on par with either of the players you mentioned. Easy comparisons but I do think both have better arms. 

However, my point is not to build with Rodgers or Cousins. My point is to build with someone they draft this year or Jordan Travis who they drafted last year. Either way, you need someone to bridge for at least this season. Throwing a rookie or 2nd year guy with no experience into the fire right away is not going to work

I don't know anything about Jordan Travis, but if they don't draft Jaxon Dart, I think they're better off just not having anything at QB and being absolutely terrible in 2025 so they can draft the best quarterback at #1 overall next year. I realize it's difficult to sacrifice a year, but if they don't think Dart is the answer or Jordan Travis and they see a franchise QB coming out in 2026, I think it's worth it to plan ahead to get that franchise QB.

Or how about Jameis Winston as a bridge QB. He could put up massive yards and touchdowns and allow the other offensive players to have successful years. If he solves his INT problems and the defense plays well they win a lot of games and go to the playoffs, and if not at least you keep Garret Wilson and Breece Hall happy for 2025 and then with a bad record get a high draft pick to draft a franchise QB in 2026.

Or get Jameis Winston as a bridge QB and draft Jaxon Dart this year. I think Kirk Cousins is shot.

yeah, I dont truly know if fields will ever be the franchise guy teams are looking for.    he has the potential to deliver some wins in the role of a game manager.  Thats how he was used in Pittsburgh.   pretty conservative offense, but he didnt turn the ball over (which was a bit of a problem for him in Chicago) but given the yardage he was putting up, you just cant win with that unless you have a top 5 defense.  Even with no turnovers.

I know people are excited about the guy, but the best I see is a perennial 8-9 or 9-8 team with him at the helm.    good enough to be competitive but not good enough to REALLY compete.   

Look at his stats last year.  1 300 yard game.  one 250 yard game and the rest were around 150 yards (or less).  Thats just not good enough.   He won because the team around him was good and the defense stuffed a lot of teams early in the season.

I think there is still room for him to grow but I dont know if there is enough room for him to one day be more than a placeholder for whoever starts next.

I’m fine with Winston as well. 
Mostly I just think it needs to be a veteran who knows his role is 2 years max because I think the Jets need to draft someone. 
I would like it to be a veteran who is also capable of winning because the team does have plenty of talent on the roster, so theoretically you can have both a bridge QB and a win now situation. 
Fields doesn’t strike me as someone who checks either of those boxes.

agreed.     Rodgers put up better numbers than fields last year, and had a losing record.

granted, the D underperformed.   but if fields puts up numbers anywhere close to what he did last season, the team wont be better than last year and could be a whole lot worse.

I do expect the Defense to be better than last year, but still.... Fields needs an awful big improvement on last years numbers to keep this team competitive.   200 yards a game wont cut it unless the defense is playing lights out.

A big part of the issue was firing Saleh. Like I said earlier, he deserved to be fired but not after week 5 when the team was 2-3. 
You can get away with that if you’re making someone like Greg Williams, for example, the interim HC because he has HC experience. Ulbrich was not. He was in over his head when he should have been completely focused on the D. I do believe if they didn’t do all that, they would have been an 8 win team rather than 5. 

DJ Reed needs to be franchise tagged and Jermaine Johnson needs to come back healthy and this defense can get back to where it was. 

A stable coaching staff for a whole season with a smart veteran QB as the bridge will have them competing for the playoffs. Maybe the Saints will move on from Carr? 
But no matter who it is, they need to draft someone especially if Jordan Travis’ injury is worse than initially thought. 

Fields wants a chance to be the man somewhere. He’s too young to play a mentor role. He won’t want that and doesn’t have much experience and wisdom to give anyway. Bringing in a guy like that is something you do if you think he might be able to be your franchise guy. I know he played with Wilson and his running threat might open up more space for Hall but in the end I don’t see him as a franchise QB. If he is, Pitt would have already locked him up

Im not saying I would want some old qb with a team not in contention.   

But I cant believe there is still a good chunk of people holding out hope on Fields.  

Now I dont think the Jets roster is bad.  But they aren't a mediocre QB away from anything.  

Sort of like the Giants and Stafford.  I understand his sister is thr wife of their assistant QB coach.  But just as far as football?  Why would the Giants deal a pick to get Stafford?  To do what exactly?  I understand the coach and GM are on borrowed time and have to sort of turn it around now.  But why would that be a good move for the franchise?  

If the Giants or Jets were closer to contention, I would say ok.  But thats not the case.  

Fields may be worth kicking the tires as a stop gap I suppose.  But hes not good.  I think under say the 9ers setups over the last few years, he could be workable.  But not every team has players nor a system that fits him.  

Tough spot for Jets, as they have some quality players in their prime.  Not sure what they should do.  Now if Stafford went there it would make more sense to me than going to the Giants.  His family ties aside.  

Tanking sucks.  But at some point its just the better option than trotting an okay QB out there to grind to 7 wins.

agreed on all points.

I'm not sure why the giants would pay for a 37 year old QB who has not been overly healthy.   Now moving him to a team where the O line isnt good.   thats a recipe for more missed time for Stafford.

as for Fields,  hes ok.   thats it.   hes not leading you to a superbowl.    to that end, I dont know why the Jets would buyout Rodgers when his most likely replacement isnt better.   I guess they could try to sign Cousins who had the same injury as Rodgers.   perhaps an extra summer off will allow him to resume his prior form.   but I really dont see the point in letting Rodgers go to sign someone inferior and then have to pay both players.

I suppose if the relationship in the dressing room was a disaster as well, it could be a case of addition by subtraction but I didnt see much in terms of reports of locker room conflict with Rodgers.   That doesnt mean its not there.  some teams are good at keeping a lid on these things.

though I guess the Jets still have to get fans in the seats, so maybe the plan is to make it look like they are doing something, when in fact, they are actually throwing in the towel.

if thats what this is.... I guess that's fine.   but the way this was done feels wrong.   it reeks of desperation.

 

anyhow, I guess its (thankfully) not my problem.   I'll just eat popcorn and watch this gong show develop.

Paying Stafford would be fiine.  I assume they have money to burn.  But trading a pick?  Even if its a 2nd? Or 3rd?  Just dont understand what you are trying to do other than stay in thr news.  

Im a Packers fan and a Rodgers fan.  But Jets sort of had to let that go.  That was a mistake.  Not saying Rodgers next year wouldnt be better than some other options on the table.  But its useless other than keeping your franchise in the news.  

I may under sell what just having some hope does fot a franchise.  But I dont understand below average teams, going out to get an ok starter to lead them to a .500 record.  Things happen.  I guess I get you are just trying to give yourself a chance and see what happens.  

Im not sure what the Jets should do.  So I guess I cant rail on any decision they make.  Tough spot.  Tougher than the Giants spot in my opinion.

I suppose.  but that's giving up another first round pick(it is my understanding that this is the current asking price for STafford)

and if they moved on from Rodgers Contract, can they afford to take on the Stafford contract?   that feels like an awful lot of money.

my belief is they need to sign one of these contracts that was just terminated where they could sign the veteran at the league minimum.  someone like Cousins.

but that stupid contract really makes this difficult for the team to make things work.

I don’t want them to trade for Stafford (unless it’s somehow cheap) but I would view it as similar to having kept Rodgers or signing a Cousins or Carr if and after they are cut. 
Again these are guys you want for 2 years MAX while a rookie sits and learns ala Jordan Love

The bonus is that a few of these guys can actually make the Jets playoff contenders and more with the amount of talent on this roster. When you have Wilson and Hall on offense and a line that recently invested in Fashanu, Tippman, still has AVT. Maybe they draft Tet as well. If they can retain DJ Reed, they will have the Williams Bros, Sauce, Jermaine Johnson back and Will McDonald looked good last year. Etc.

Stafford would never go to the Giants. The last thing he wants to do at this point of his career is get his brains beat in by the NFC East. 

He's staying in LA where the weather is good and the team has a shot.

I would like to see the Jets draft Shedeur and have him change his last name to Pants.

[weepaws 3,320]

Would have worked, if you had said draft.  

[JagFan 191]

Rodgers skill set is declining, but his arrogance and feeling of entitlement aren’t declining at the same rate.  But the main reason Rodgers is NOT the answer for any team is because he’s a cancer in the locker room.  You aren’t rebuilding anything with a guy who will cry his way off your team if he’s not winning games.  The Jets should have been way better than they were last year with the young talent they have at the other skill positions.

[League Champion 1,926]

The Jets will have no choice to draft a QB at 7 and hopefully bring in a bridge QB for a year. The bandaids aren't working 

I think the Jets would love Jaxson Dart 

[LaChup 256]

He will be the best QB in the draft. Better than those other two of which one will not even be top 5 of this class.

Thats a bad process.  If there isnt one there you like at 7 you cant just take one.  Will Dart fly up the board like we have seen some other QBs in other years?  Perhaps.  Snd he could be good.  But cant take one just to swing in a meh QB class sitting at 7.  But hey it seemingly looks decent for Broncos and ATL taking their QBs after a wave went earlier.  So who is to say.  But you can never force the issue.  Perhaps if they like Dart they can position themselves with a move back some and still land him.

They'll still need a bridge QB, these rookie QBs aren't ready. Imagine if they sign a veteran QB and win 8 games. They'll never get a QB 

I agree.  Sometime you just have to strip and tank tho. Which is tough for them since they dont have a terrible roster.  Tough spot for them.

I like Jaxson Dart a little later

Probably wont happen and if they are going to take a QB, say Dart somewhere in the first, its tough to do that.  But I feel they should trade Wilson and get a great pick.  Especially if they start a bridge QB.

What are the FFT forearm thoughts on Garrett Wilson after Sunday? I’ve been offered Wilson for my sending Brian Thomas & I’m tempted to do it.

Lawrence sucks, and now he has two very good WRs, Wilson is the best playmaker on the Jets outside of Fields, I’ll do it.

I wouldn't, even though I have Wilson in two leagues and am very high on him.
