D-Jax Big Possibility of Being Cut


Recommended Posts

Per Rotoworld.com:

 

New York Daily New's Manish Mehta reports DeSean Jackson is unwilling to restructure the $10.5 million he is scheduled to make in 2014.

Manish added a source told him, "Philly is trading him or cutting him. That's a fact. They don't want him." Cutting Jackson would save the Eagles around $6 million against the cap this season and, more importantly, about $11 million against the 2015 cap. The Eagles would obviously much rather trade Jackson, but his unwillingness to restructure and the Eagles' intention to cut him make a trade unlikely. The Jets and Panthers would lead the chase if/when Jackson is released.
 
 
 
 

If DeSean gets cut, it'll be a situation similar to Smitty's where he can take less money because his old team will still be paying him too. Maybe that's why Gettleman is slowplaying this (like everything else).

 

Don't get hyped up, but GET HYPE possibly.

As a Jets fan, I can say Mehta is pure garbage as a reporter.  Actually, he, and our dufus duo here are pretty relatable, but it is an interesting thought.  My guess is that he's trying to point to smoke in hopes that there's a fire for the hometown Jets.... makes sense too.  Carolina can't outbid New York with the cap, so we'd have to pimp Cam to bring Jax here... very doable though.... and we get to keep our draft picks.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
