Your talking big bucks. Probably can't afford him...that's why Coples I guess.

Just went down....sign Coples and this off season will be off to a good start... (for the D anyways). So he is free negotiate with other teams...interesting.

While we all know JNo's value, I think Gettleman would jump at getting 2 1st's for him, or anybody not wearin a 1 or 59....

I don't think this has anything to do with trying to get two firsts for norman, and has everything to do with trying to sign him long-term concurrently.

Let him see how much other teams might be willing to pay for him, and his agent might be more willing to accept what gettleman believes to be a fair offer.

I'd be surprised if anyone does any serious negotiating with him, two firsts is a lot to give up.  At least it gives us more time to work towards a long term contract, rewards us if someone wants to sign him, and potentially costs less than the exclusive tag.

So if a team ends up getting him do they give up two first round picks of their own?  Or are we awarded two first round picks like a comp pick? 

I'm pretty sure it's the other team's 2016 & 2017 1st round picks.

We would get the picks from the team that signs him.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
