I think drafting Marshall in the 2nd is the writing on the wall for Anderson. There's only so much salary cap to go around.

He could very well be a CAP casualty

But i think it depends on what we pay DJ and how much robby is asking for. He took less than what NY was expecting when he first signed with us (i believe)

TBD. Marshall may not be able to stay healthy or work out. And maybe Anderson isn't as expensive as we believe in free agency. 

Hopefully they both play well and it's a "good" tough decision like the Curtis Samuel decision was.

Yeah, IIRC, didn't he have a better offer somewhere else?

I am worried about his injury history, but I think that would be the only thing holding him back from being a great talent for us. I think the only odd guy out would be David Moore (not DJ). I think production and time will tell

If he puts up those numbers, Brady looks great but the Jets would have to be embarrassed. Plus that would be quit the steal by Fitts for a future 2nd and late picks. I’m still skeptical, but hopeful!

Especially since we've basically gotten everything we spent back except the 2nd rounder

The Jets would only be embarrassed if Wilson is the new Sam Darnold. Then the spotlight becomes, "WTF are the Jets doing to ruin QB's???!"

This is where I'm at. If Darnold puts up those stats, Joe Brady is probably the hottest name on the head coaching interview circuit next year.

Yeah probably...although I'm not sure it'd be deserved.  That would make Brady 1 for 2 on QB reclamation projects so it'd be hard to attribute Darnold's success to Brady versus the Jets just being that much of a  dysfunctional dumpster fire.  You would expect a genius offensive mind to milk something out of Teddy rather than just see him perform the exact same he has in every previous season.

As much as people like to absolve Brady of all culpability because of Teddy: a good OC either has to work around the QB's limitations, or, if the offense sputters again and again and again and again because of said QB limitations, then you HAVE to at least try something different.  I'm not saying he should have benched Teddy and tried Walker/Grier since that traditionally isn't an OC's call, but hell....try SOMETHING different.  It was the same issues every game that never got addressed.

I seriously doubt he's a cap casualty, I just expect us to let him walk and take the comp pick.

QB is the one spot that's really hard to scheme around, especially when you're short your #1 offensive weapon. I'm not saying Brady was perfect, but I think he probably did about as much as he could with the obvious limitation at QB.

Don’t forget, this stat line would be over 17 games as opposed to 16 in the past. This would require an average of about 235 YPG, approximately 1.5 TDs per game, and less than 1 INT per game. If Darnold can put up these numbers, I think the QB issue is solved for a few years. However, over a 17-game season, I’d like to see more TDs.

      Didn't know where to post this but it is panthers relevant since eventually we'll have a couple wr in Coker and tmac that will get paid. Jaxon Smith-njigba just signed a 4 year $168.6 million contract extension that now makes him the highest paid wr in nfl history. For now

      Would be happy with Lomu or Iheanachor at 19. Fano is intriguing but I don't think he makes it.

      II see it this way: We have to look at long-term needs and current depth.  We have filled some key spots with players on one-year contracts.  I firmly believe that they intend to pay Bryce some big bucks next year.  That means you cannot hope that your rookies in 2027 can fill the spots vacated by the veterans you could not afford to re-sign.   We need to consider the cap and the fact that the need to start a rookie is not viewed as a positive by coaches and general managers, but they value first contracts--so it is a delicate balance. I think they have to look at the cap by position--"Can we afford a $50m QB and a $100m OL?  That is half the cap, before you pay your WRs and RBs and TEs.  They need to start getting younger on the OL as well.   I am not suggesting that we draft OT in round 1, but we could and I would get it.  RT on a 1-year deal, they may have intel about Ickey (who was not the best LT, to be honest) and 32-year old Moton is on a bad wheel.   Now if you go by Morgan's history, you can almost tell what position we are going to address with the first pick by noting the positions he has not focused on in free agency.  DT, considering the lack of performance by those not named Derrick Brown and the loss of Robinson, is screaming to be addressed with a top player.  Wharton is not an early down DT (DE if you want to get technical) and our LBs need to be clean--they were not in 2025.  Look for a DT early. I also think we will address ILB (pass covering Will) on day 2.  The other day 2 pick will be an OT, in my view. Do not rule out CB.  We are thin there too, and Jackson is in his final year.  I am not sure that we love Smith-Wade.  Some crackhead on here talked about moving him to S----stay tuned.   Hopefully, a team wanting Ty Simpson will move up and offer us a pick or two to move back. DT WILB OT OC QB  (you heard it here 337th--but this pick could come sooner than you think.
