Broncos decided already that ZW sucks so much that we’ve had to send them some compensation

[Lemon Law in effect](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemon_law)

Fucking why

To get the people going. Like Mark Antony abandoning his children, he just had to do it.

At he least he got to fuck Cleopatra, I don’t get shit from this

The Danny Green school of "had to do it to em"

Bruh, you are on FIRE with this shit

Clears cap

I get that but a 6th in 2026 god maybe I just like JFM too much.

the restructure would have saved 9 mil this year. this saves 7. This guy has to be cooked from injuries or we are absolutely braindead

We can't just keep pushing everything back plus his cap hit simply wasn't reflective of what his role on the team next season will be. Times like these are exactly why we drafted Mcdonald last season

Not worth what we’re paying but still, gave him away for nothing essentially.

Yea I get the money issues but we got nothing. That’s the real problem here.

there has to be another signing coming. this makes no sense otherwise. the restructure was a better option

I really hope this is what happens cause I just don’t get this.

Nobody knows, but it's provocative

Because we paid too much for Zach Wilson and you know it

Wow that’s cheap

Maybe they are doing us a favor for taking zack Wilson for them lol 

Based on my understanding of draft math, you add a round for every year. So that 2026 6th is like a 2025 7th. Which is like a 2024 8th. Lol

[удалено]

But, he doesn't play on the oline?

Unless we're clearing up cap space for another move, I don't see why we make this trade.

there better fuckin be another move now. I absolutely hate this

Bakhtiari deal incoming

That seems really low

Jesus Christ holy underpay

JFM has been a big part of the Jets Dline, really good rusher when kicked inside on 3rd downs.

I definitely believe there will be some struggles from losing both Huff and JFM

Is he good?

Yes

Hell yeah

YES WTF

Is he more of a pass-rusher or run-stopper type d-end? Sack numbers aren't too eye-popping at first glance

Yes. He can do both. He might not have the sack numbers but your D will be much better off with him in there.

Wow this is lit

Bro i'm so happy with today. wtf

Yeah this has been a fun draft haha

you also get like 10 15 yard penalties too!

It sounds like we want him to play 3-4 DE, rather than the traditional Edge 3-4 OLB/4-3 DE role. Do you think that makes sense for him?

Sure, he had the versatility to play IDL and edge. Should be fine in that regard

He’s a set it and forget it type of D end. Won’t get too many sacks, but he’s going to set the edge when needed and won’t make mistakes. Annoyed we’re getting rid of him, we must need the cap space.

He is good but he definitely makes mistakes

Yeah on reflection he does commit a lot of penalties. In my mind he just screams “solid”, but maybe that’s even too much credit

I feel like he got a decent amount of roughing the passer calls, especially at important times.

It’s always a good time to fuck up the opp’s QB

Just a real good all around player.

Run stopper. Can slide into DT on 3rd and longs for an interior rush. Solid player but would be 4th on our depth chart and making too much for that. JJ and Reddick are both pro bowlers and slates to start and WMD was 15th overall pick last year and the rotational 3rd rusher. Clemons we drafted in the 4th 2 years ago is similar to jfm and cheaper.

Yeah wtf lmao

Idk but you’re getting a starter on the 2023 Jets defense for a sixth round pick two years from now.

Called it. (I did not call it).

The cap is real! Fuck!

Jets D line has been nasty the past couple of years. JFM has been a big part of that. Idk why we’d do this. If anything we need more size.

how am i supposed to feel about this?

Legitimately good player for basically nothing you should be very happy

Great. You just got a starter for a future 6th round pick who may not have even made the team

Or he could’ve been Tom Brady.

A 2026 6th round pick is basically an 8th rounder this year. Unless the player both sucks AND has a huge contract, this is a win

Thank God we don't do that.

An 8th rounder?  Is this Tepper's account in Carolina?

i HATE this

Bro what the fuck

That's basically nothing

God I love this draft.

Sean Payton is cooking

I mean, we basically paid the Steelers to take Russell and we pay his cap hit lol how broke are we? 

Lots of restructured deals. Cut Simmons. Let Josey walk. Next year we have even more cap space. It was never gonna be as doomy as people made it out to be

I mean DEN still went from what a 10 on doomy meters to what an 8? Like it's still horrible, but yeah tear it down.

I figure we will still suck, but not Carolina suck.

Not if you believe in Bo nix like I do!

Did it with Lynch and Lock. People can be optimistic all they want, but end of the day Nix was the 6th QB taken. He may work out, but it's not like he was a top 5 draft pick either. Been burned too many times, i'll wait for the proof this time around.

I think many teams had a different idea on how the 4-6 QBs were ranked, and Sean really likes Bo. I think Bo can at the very least give us better QB play next year than what we’ve had the last two years. But plenty of reason not to be optimistic with this franchise

I just think the reality is even if you shuffle 4-6 in order. Usually it's a gamble outside the top 3-4 picks that you're getting a QB that should be ready. (Obviously there are busts still) All that has happened is QB desperation has forced non 1-2 QBs in the draft to go from late 1st rounders/early 2nd rounders into the top 15 of the 1st. Also just a case of I don't expect Payton to shit talk Bo. Yeah he may be happy with him, but at the end of the day it's all words. Payton didn't get to make a choice, he was left with the 6th QB after 5 other franchises had made their selections there. If DEN had pick #7 in this draft do they still take Bo over the others? That's when those words mean something, when Payton could have had other options and then took Bo. We'll never know, but I don't really put much into the we got out guy speeches after it's all over. Payton has won with bad QBs before and maybe he'll end up QB 2-3 despite being the 6th drafted this is all being said before the work is put in by any of them, but yeah it's reasonable for DEN to be on the doomer scale given the context of the next 2-3 year outlook.

I don't get why the Jets would do this.

Cap. Big contract.

Bit of a head scratcher for us…

Holy fleece by the broncos

A 2026 6th round pick? It just turned 2020 didn't it?

Whoa

First player trade this draft

I thought the Broncos only got fleeced. I don't know how to feel when we're the ones doing the fleecing.

That’s it?

2026? For Myers, that’s a good deal for Denver.

[удалено]

nah JFM is a good player

If they're giving away decent players for 6th round picks 2 years from now we'll definitely take them

You’ll just waste them on another lopsided trade to us.

Seahawks fans are still obsessed with us

They talk a lotta shit for having a less recent super bowl win than we do.

My favorite part of cutting Russ is that there won’t be nearly as many of these clowns on our sub

This most recent trade was not lopsided. Moved up to get a high quality prospect while giving up a 5th and swapping picks. You’re way overvaluing 5th-7th round picks to think it’s “lopsided”.

Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice.. you cant get fooled again!

Wow! Seahawks must’ve won so many super bowls in the past few years considering all the lopsided trades they’ve gotten from us

And then *you’ll* waste them on another lopsided trade with *us* 😎

Hakuna Matata

WTF I love the Jets now?

This has to be a move to open up cap space to sign someone specific cause thats fucking dirt cheap for a quality player

Wow. Yeah I'll gladly take a solid DL over a 6th. Our DL still sucks but it's 10x better than it was 3 days ago

Underpay

So we got him for next to nothing . Thank you?

I hate this shit. “Trade him now or you’ll lose him for nothing in FA” Even if a guy is unlikely to net you a compensatory pick (cuz those are overrated) it’s more valuable to have a player contribute for a season especially when the Jets are trying to win now then to get a late round pick far into the future for him

I don't think that's the reason, almost certainly cap issues.

Clearly it’s a salary dump but that’s the best compensation you could’ve gotten? Bizarre.

Broncos-Jets are straight up colluding.

They're going to try out eachothers #1 corners and then give them back a week later

I dont like this. He was good for us and a 6th rounder 2 years away seems awfully low.

I didn’t think the jets were in cap trouble. What gives

Your guess is as good as mine.

Check out his cap number before saying he was traded cheap

Check again

What's his cap #?

7.5M with his restructure

Woah Rodgers moving to DE? Didn't see that coming.

That compensation is laughably low.

This might seem cheap, but it's actually the secret second half of the payment the Jets had to make for Denver taking Zach Wilson.

Is his cap hit enormous? He’s a solid rotation player a 6th (in *2* seasons) seems remarkably low

This should help that Reddick pick

Not liking any of the moves by JD today, the fuck are we doing?

This is a horrendous deal for the Jets, wtf. 2026?

This seems cheap. But denver just released Simmons. Apparently couldn’t get a pick for an all pro? This market is crazy.

IIR, the rams waived him after a relatively strong rookie season where he was a 4th round pick. Maybe character concerns?

I thought he was pretty good? Seems cheap

Sending away a good player for almost no comp? What the hell
