I think he got ticked off about how they were using him and the coaches told him to skip practice.  He subsequently asked for a trade if I recall correctly.  Though nothing was completely prior to the deadline.  Funny thing was the Packers were a rumored package to boost Rodgers corps lol.

*edit: There was something weird about it---and here it is--it was strange bc it was after their good start:

Yeah...I'd definitely want more info on that before I'd be willing to trade for him.

You don't want a head case.

That would make Elijah Moore expendable. He’s going in to his third year. Not sure how good he’s been, hard to tell when you play for the Jets.

He has a hell of a lot of talent, but piss poor QB play and Garrett Wilson becoming the clear #1 has made him almost invisible in that offense.

Wow Darren Waller to Giants for A THIRD ONLY. 

 

We missed on this one. 

Yes and no

Would have loved to make that trade ourselves, but he's also the highest paid TE in the league.  We could sign Shultz for significantly less I'd think, Gesicki for substantially less for sure.  

Not being in on this trade though means to me that we HAVE to land one of these good pass catching TE's though.

He's also older than you'd have imagined since it took him time to break into the league, he turns 31 a few weeks into the season.

Moore posted a kind of an enigmatic tweet about being thankful for a things he didn't get.

With the news that Aaron Rodgers is directing the Jets to try and sign some of his old offensive teammates, there's speculation the Jets might be willing to part with some of their current guys.

Exactly. Also, I think Davis will end up being part of the package going back to GB along with draft compensation. 

Moore showed a lot of promise as a rookie....just have to make sure as you mentioned, that he is a cultural fit.

I get this but I think he is a top 3 TE. For $12M and a 3rd I think it's an absolute steal. Pretty sure no dead cap after 2024 season if you needed to move on. 

 

Also would let us go all in on WR in the draft

He only played 9 games last year. Sounds like he is damaged goods to me.  

I honestly wouldn't look at anything the Raider's did last year it was such a cluster. His contract has an easy out after 2024 if I'm reading it correctly. I think a guy like that makes a rookie QB transition so much easier, especially when we have no outside weapons currently.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
