Coach Tuesday Posted March 8, 2022 Posted March 8, 2022 Splash offseason: Sign Kirk and Gronk Trade the first for McCaffrey and use him as a hybrid slot receiver Tickets will be sold. 2 2 1 Quote
Greg S Posted March 8, 2022 Posted March 8, 2022 Per today's Daily News the Jets are expected to release WR Jamison Crowder. Any interest? Quote

Not many FA out there that instill excitement that could single handedly pull ticket sales. Chandler Jones? Now maybe if we pull a trade like Mack or Saquan people might flock. Mario Williams esque players are the only ones that create big splashes. Quote

Expand This is where I am. A trade for McCaffrey or Mack would be the big splash tradewise. Gronk would be the big splash free agent wise. I love Brandon Scherff, but signing a right guard is not a big splash. Neither is signing Chandler Jones imo. Maybe Von Miller. Quote

Expand Landing McCaffrey would absolutely be a splash move, and so would a Mack signing. Only WR I consider a splash would be Adams. 2 Quote

Expand To be clear I’m not saying they should do this, I’m just painting a picture of what a possible “splash” offseason spending spree would look like. Agree re Chandler Jones. As for Von Miller, not sure where he fits into this defense and they don’t have $20M to pay him given their other needs. 1 Quote

Expand Agreed that those are the "splash" moves out there, not necessarily the right ones. But no one cares about Allen Robinson etc. Quote

Don't believe there is one that can lesson the nearly $1 billion public funded sticker shock. Expand This is not a good take. There are a BUNCH of splash players in this free agency class.

Try harder… We are on the verge of winning it all. We have an insanely talented roster. People are gonna “flock” already… Expand Of course people are going to come. But the article implies that Pegs wants to bring a “big splash” player to give extra incentive to help swallow the increased prices. Since a new stadium isn’t here yet, I’d imagine such a signing would be a very long term one, like 4 or 5 years. Only players that fit that definition are CMC, Barkley, and Mack. Adams would be a splash move, but not likely a long term contract given his age. Edited March 8, 2022 by IronMaidenBills 1 Quote
BuffaloRebound Posted March 8, 2022 Posted March 8, 2022 Gronk would be biggest splash signing by far to the average fan. 1 Quote

Expand No, that isn’t splashy enough. While it’s a good signing, that isn’t bringing any more excitement than we’ve already been experiencing. Mack, CMC, and Barkley all bring that “It’s on like Donkey Kong” vibe. Gronk isn’t exactly that. Quote
