New York Jets Flight Connections 3/24/23
Photo by Stacy Revere/ Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. Yesterday it was reported that former Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott had narrowed down his destinations to three places - the Jets, the Eagles, and the Bengals. And, despite Breece Hall and Michael Carter seemingly disapproving of adding the veteran to the RB room, it would make a lot of sense for the New York Jets to do - at the right price. Hall is unlikely to be ready to start the season, and even if...

ESPN's Jeff Darlington confirms Mutual interest between New York Jets and Odell Beckham Jr.
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports The movement within the Jets wide receiver room may not be done. According to ESPN'S Jeff Darlington who was appearing on the Get Up morning program, there is mutual interest between the New York Jets and Odell Beckham Jr in completing a deal to bring the former Giant back to New York, just in a different uniform. "We should very much consider Odell Beckham Jr. still on the table as an option for the New York Jets. In fact, we can go even further to say that both sides would still like to see this done. Obviously, the Jets signed...

Photo by Kevin Sabitus/ Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. After being disgruntled for the entirety of the 2022 season, the New York Jets have finally traded Elijah Moore. The deal was made with the Cleveland Browns, where the Jets gained a 2nd Round pick in exchange for Moore and a 3rd. It’s unfortunate to see Elijah go, but to anybody paying attention, it was a foregone conclusion after his outburst last year. To go along with their trade, the Jets also signed...

Sources: The #Browns are trading for #Jets speedy WR Elijah Moore. A new threat in Cleveland. Terms: It's pick No. 42 for Moore and pick 74.— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 22, 2023 Moore failed to build on a promising rookie season. In fact, his second season was a disaster. It included a trade request in October which came after a Jets win. Moore...

Mecole Hardman agrees to terms with Jets
George Walker IV / Tennessean.com / USA TODAY NETWORK The Jets are signing former Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman per Tom Pelissero. The #Jets agreed to terms with WR Mecole Hardman, per source. pic.twitter.com/dhKVlMzrTj— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) March 22, 2023 Hardman was a second round pick by Kansas City out of Georgia in 2019. Timed in the 4.3 range in the 40 yard dash, Kansas City seemingly saw him as a second Tyreek Hill. Things never really panned out. Hardman never reached so much as 700 receiving yards in a single season in Kansas City’s...

Former Green Bay Packers Vice President weighs in on potential Aaron Rodgers trade to NY Jets
Dan Powers/USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin / USA TODAY NETWORK Much has been said in recent days about the role of “leverage” in the negotiation between the New York Jets and Green Bay Packers as the Jets pursue a trade for Aaron Rodgers. From the Jets side, the situation is becoming quite clear: As more and more quarterback options go off the board the Jets need to acquire Aaron Rodgers. However, the situation from the Green Bay side is a bit murkier given the salary cap and fan reactions ramifications as well as their increasingly tense relationship with Rodgers....

Photo by Joshua Bessex/ Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. With the Aaron Rodgers/Jets/Packers situation become near radio-silent - for now - the news has gone with it. It turns out that unless something is happening, nothing is actually happening during the offseason - at least, nothing noteworthy to the average fan. And while I’m personally tired of talking about quarterbacks, an interesting tidbit came out from the camp of Lamar Jackson, who the Jets have been...

Contextualizing the Chuck Clark acquisition: Was it fair value?
Albert Cesare/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK On Sunday, the New York Jets acquired safety Chuck Clark from the Baltimore Ravens for a 2024 seventh-round pick. Coming along with Clark is his contract, which for Jets purposes is a 1 year deal with a $4,140,000 cap hit. The overall trade was met by mixed reviews by Jets fans, as most acquisitions are are. In an attempt to ascertain the degree to which the deal was good, bad, or ugly for the Jets, I will dive into Clark’s ProFootballFocus (PFF) grades as well as the contract values of other players who play his...

New York Jets Jump To 9th in NFL Power Rankings
Mike De Sisti / Milwaukee Journal Sentinel / USA TODAY NETWORK I tend to only share power rankings when they are positive for the New York Jets, so here we are. NFL.com released their “post-free-agency” power rankings today, although it’s key to point out that there are still a lot of good players yet to sign for new teams. The Jets jumped all the way from #16 overall to #9 overall, based largely on the arrival of a player who has yet to arrive. Aaron Rodgers will always vault a team into the contender conversation, but they also look at the signing of Lazard,...

Photo by Cliff Hawkins/ Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. One word that I think I could go a day without is “leverage”. It’s been used back and forth between the fan bases of both the Jets and the Packers, and it has little true meaning by either side. Speculation can be a healthy debate topic, but when there’s a period of purgatory and the speculation remains at a standstill, it’s pointless to continue whatever debate is being had. That’s where we are...

Understanding Wide Receiver Garrett Wilson’s 2022 Route Tree
Sam Greene/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson had a great rookie year accumulating 1,103 receiving yards on 83 receptions for 4 touchdowns and winning the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. The hope for Jets fans is that Wilson takes another step forward in 2023 with many mentioning the possibility of improvement coming simply by the arrival of a more effective quarterback. However, there is also room for Garrett to improve his own game, as shown by his ‘Reception Perception’ profile as created by Yahoo Sports Writer Matt...

Shout out to Mr. Wells for holding down the fort over the weekend as usual. Since the Jets have signed former Packers WR Allen Lazard, things have gone silent on the Aaron Rodgers front. Fans and pundits have argued back and forth as to who has the leverage between the Jets and the Packers, but the reality is that neither team truly has any leverage. It doesn’t do the Packers any favors to hold out on the...

Photo by Al Bello/ Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning Gang Green Nation! The New York Jets continue to be relatively quiet in free agency. While they have been linked to several big name free agents, the Jets’ only major acquisition so far has been wide receiver Allen Lazard. If the Jets are really going all in this year to take advantage of a very limited window with Aaron Rodgers, at some point the Jets are going to have to add some pieces along the offensive and defensive lines, as well as perhaps a ball hawking safety and a running...
