And we needed him.  We should have made the trade.

We need a guy like him for sure.

 

But that's way too much salary and the bills would have to restructure a bunch more contracts  and backload that reddick contract

Why would they trade him? Cap space? 

Yep I would guess so. He wants to get paid and eagles probably didn't want to invest in him

Well they don't know how to draft one, so might as well trade for or sign one.

They definitely need more pass rush, no argument there.

 

But the bills cap situation right now makes it pretty unrealistic to absorb another 20 plus mil contract. (And trade draft assets)

As I just saw pointed out on Twitter:

Yes, the Jets got 29 year old Reddick, but they LOST 25 year old Bryce Huff who is coming off a career year with 10 sacks.

Reddick and Huff had an identical 22% pass rush win rate last year. Huff had one less sack on 289 (!) less rushes.

So the Eagles got the younger, arguably equally productive player by signing Huff, then turned around and took advantage of the Jets' sudden need for a pass rusher by trading them the older Reddick and getting a 2nd round pick and $10 million in cap space in return.

So the Jets added a good player in Reddick, yes, but its arguably a wash with having lost Huff, but they got older and gave up a premium pick to do it.

Howie Roseman win, Joe Douglas loss.

Joe Douglas is doing an excellent job of putting together a playoff roster. I wonder if Robert Saleh is capable of utilizing it.

Probably a lot.

 

His last 4 seasons were: 12.5 sacks, 11 , 16 and 11 sacks.

 

Premium position , gotta be north of 20 mil I would think 

I agree. Likely more than the Bills could have afforded right now.

for a conditional 3rd in 2026

I would have done that deal 

 

Eagles gave Reddick permission to seek a trade. This deal is coming with a big contract from the Jets

Would you want him on the books or Miller on the books? Could have possibly structured a deal to escalate once Miller is gone

it's way more the contract then the compensation. 

We have Vons contract so no chance 

 

It's hilarious ppl are scared of the Jets lmao.  Their coaching/front office is brutal

Rumors were that Reddick was unhappy because he wanted a big extension and the Eagles weren't giving him because his best year was 4 years ago and while productive was seeing diminished returns 

 

So hey Banner, load up on aging players on the decline

No denying the jets will be much better next year, they've had a great offseason. All comes down to Rodgers and what he looks like post injury. 


this plus weathering distractions. 
 

And ensuring Hackett truly is a coffee runner.

it’s all in on one year in jersey 

 

but sometimes that works.

Jets are going to be good.

Don't they still have Saleh, Hackett, a declining 40 year old qb coming off an Achilles injury, and an Oline that will be on IR by week 6?
