oh look another thread hating on one of our players

Wouldn't you have to play to be considered a player?

Technically, as the jimmey hasn't seen the field in two years, you could say he is not a player. He has a roster spot. But he ain't one of our players.

He is damm good at what he does. Don't get me wrong. Not every team has a guy to hold that clipboard and cater team meetings with the panache that the jimmey has.

i don't hate on jimmy, it's just i hate to see his talents wasted on an NFL roster while his future as an IHOP server trickles away a season at a time

Teh jimmey will be fine. He is still young, with the whole world before him. He has options. That IHOP thing, he can be a greeter at Cheap Cutz, or he can get into catering. Or, he can get into coaching. You know that old adage. Those that can do, those that can't teach. He should be a hellofa teacher.

Even though we all know that if by some terrible god smack occurrence that we should be down to teh Jimmy Jamz all hope would be lost, the fact that he is cheap and may still have knowledge of the offense even if he is unable to translate that knowledge to performance on the field could not be replaced simply by a FA signing.

 

 

 

and no, I don't think we need to carry three QB's either.  But he's here.

I remember in 2009 or 2010 not sure which pulling for pickles to come in when Matt Moore sucked, and pike when pickles sucked. Those where terrible options to have at qb.

I was at the Jets preseason game trying to convince my bro-in-law that Jimmehy had good pocket presence and NFL tools.

Honestly, if we cut Pickles this year we'd add $267k to the cap and then pay maybe 600-800k for a new backup. So it'll cost $1M for us to cut and replace the Jim Jam Meister and we're talking a 3rd stringer here, not gunna happen.

We don't need a 3rd string QB on the 53 at all. Best option is to keep one of the rookie QBs on the PS. Pickles, offers nothing that any random suckass QB could. A PS guy would be cheaper AND save us a roster spot.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
