Dalvin Cook to the jets.

[Good_Dylan]

One upside to this….maybe the Jets can help knock the Bills down a peg. I’m looking for a silver lining here.

And even more importantly maybe keep a foot on the throat of the Pats

May we never forget the 20+ years of dominance over this division and most of the NFL.

May bill belicheat never win another playoff game is my wish.

Not upset because I love Achane, but that’s the last team I wanted to see him go to.

Only good thing is if got cook archane wasn't goin to be used barely at all now we get alot of achane **** he might flat out win the job we haven't had a legitimate 1 good starting rb since 2016 and ajayi

 

[GRYPHONK]

Well, it's a little disappointing we couldn't come close to 8.6 for 1 year.

But it's done, we didn't get Cook.

Only time will tell if it was the right move or not

There are so many variables that would have made it worth signing him.

We shall see.

As noted, when Miami is in the Playoffs and Cook in the rear view mirror, it won't matter.

But if on 12/17 Miami is on the cusp of the playoffs and Cook is busy wearing down our defense..... This may look completely diferrent. God forbid if Tua goes down for a few games and our offense struggles with no real running game to compensate. This will look diferrently.

Then again, WHEN Mostert and Achane become the new Barber/ whoever that other Giants RB was lol, then this will look like a genius move.

Only time will tell.

Now, go extend Wilkins

I understand your point of view.
Tua has an injury history - hip and ankle at Bama, concussions here. I am hopeful his increased strength (maybe about ten pounds?), quick release, second year in the same offense, and 4th year in the league will help. I don’t see the OL as a positive but that is a different thread.
I would like to see Skylar play the first half this coming Saturday. We know Whites ceiling, Skylar has a chance to blossom.

So far Thompson blows. Can he get better? We better hope so.

 

[DuderinoN703]

Typical deflection when you don't have a solid argument. Mostert was as productive as Cook if they had the same amount of carries.

Not a deflection in the slightest. Calling me names because you don’t agree with my take is something I don’t have time for.

 

[BROGS]

Living here in Jets country and listening to sports radio most the day there o line is biggest concern. It remains to be seen if it has gotten better then it was last year.

 

[utahphinsfan]

They are the Jets never lose sight of that.

The jest lost sight that the mets (mlb) made a bunch of big splash moves before the season.

This resulted in them being sellers, a few weeks ago, at the trade deadline.

p.s. Aren't the hubris & arrogance of teams in northeast great? /s

 

[utahphinsfan]

Jets are formidable, on paper. AFC East is an arms race.

The only thing I'm banking on is the Jets being the Jets and something cataclysmic happens to them to ruin their season.

They go nowhere without Aaron Rodgers, by the way. If ARod isn't ARod of old, then I can see them with less than 10 wins.

Like having to rely on Z Wilson for a majority of the season?

 

[phinsforlife]

I think the Harbaugh to Miami that was more annoying

fair point. need stats on that one to compare, views and comments?

 

[Finsational]

Not a deflection in the slightest. Calling me names because you don’t agree with my take is something I don’t have time for.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I called your post useless, not you. If you took that personally I apologize.

 

[lucid22]

Cook is only on a 1 year deal, I could see him coming to Miami next year for less (Assuming Mostert and Wilson Jr are both gone)

 

[Rev Kev]

Davin going to get some pay I suppose we were to be “used” in some bidding war and eventually wind up with him

Only one player can tote or catch the rock at a time

 

[Adam First]

Like having to rely on Z Wilson for a majority of the season?

Exactly that. It's like if we have to rely on Skylar Thompson to win us games.

 

[AquaHawk]

To date, Cook hasn't found a lot of production against Fangio’s Defenses. In the 3x he's faced them since he's been in the league, he’s only scored 1 total touchdown and averaged 2.5 YPC / 4.2 YPR.

Maybe it's different with the Jets, but hopefully not.

 

[Blake the great]

Like Miami usually does? Cmon man.

Go root for the Jets then! Geez, get over it, he's just a RB.
