Oh yeah, go back to the 4-3 too.  This team was not and is not built for the 3-4.   Growing pains does not describe how bad this defense has looked.  Yes sacks are up but so are points given up.  I'll sacrifice sack tallies for a more sound, reliable defense.

Donte Jackson has the skills (I believe), he just doesn't have any type of fundamentals or discipline. He thinks he's better than he is. And if he is that good, he certainly hasn't shown it consistently. 

I agree with that.

I agree...why not scrap the 3-4 and just go 4-3 here on out!!!

I'm just asking them to be concentrated in the existing thread. Not every thought that passes through someone's head is worthy of a new thread.

Cutting down on the constant Cam vs. Kyle threads clogging up the forum was one of the exact things I said I would do as a mod.

The vs implies there's a realistic comparison to be had. At this point there isn't. Newton is our best option for the foreseeable future until another heir apparent can step up unless you think waving the white flag for the 2020 season in hopes we can get the top pick is a good idea.

Yes. I think Moore is the more promising prospect. We just make Ridley look like Jerry Rice.

Im with you. Everytime a tough contested, needed catch is made across the screen this season it has been DJ. 

It has happened at least 2-3x a game too. 

He could perform so much better if we decided to utilize him fully.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      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.
