Jets Officially Release Davante Adams

When the Raiders and Jets don't even want you anymore you're toast.

Hope he's been saving.

I mean he had 1,000 yards and 8 TDs in 14 games.  Adams is still one hell of a WR.  Raiders traded him because Adams wanted to leave and Jets are cutting him because Adams doesn't want to be there and he's making way too much money for a team to take him on in a trade.

He was 10th in the league in targets at 32 years old and the Jets won 5 games. I'm not saying he's not talented it's just at this point in his career it's simply not a winning formula to build a passing offense around him. Those days are gone.

For a contending team that wants to add another complimentary piece to an already formidable offense on a low end contract he could see interest. But no team is going to be vying for his services to make him the focal point. Which is what he was with the Jets to achieve those numbers you mentioned.

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
