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

Don’t worry, he’s keep receipts

Wow. Good player. I wanted the Bills to consider him a couple of years ago. I am actually getting a little concerned about the Jets. Yeah, I know, they're the Jets, but they are undoubtedly amassing talent and if Rogers is healthy, he'll likely be an upper echelon QB still because of his incredible arm and on-field intelligence.

 

But they are old. In a lot of spots. The Eagles won a straight up swap of Huff for Reddick IMO.

Who is their OL?

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.

You’re really trying to pretend that Bryce Huff is as good as Haasan Reddick?

Concur.

Rushing the passer won’t be a problem for the jets their weakness is covering backs out of the backfield as Miami and Buffalo exposed late in the season. They  don’t really have many guys who are good at doing that. Now who knows what the draft holds but this is a good move for the jets but it also doesn’t really solve their biggest defensive flaw.

No team in the NFC wants to dominate. All the talent needs to go to AFC apparently 🙄

You know Bills fans … many of them enjoy ridiculing every other team, despite not actually winning anything themselves. Fans that can’t acknowledge that other teams are good and will challenge the Bills are tiresome  IMO

The Jets have been building the best injured-list-bound roster in the league the past 2 offseasons.    I wonder if Douglas sees something in Hasaan that makes him think this is the year he gets injured a lot?

It’s Huff at a smaller deal + a third vs Reddick at a larger deal. 
 

Huff doesn’t have to be better than Reddick today to win the trade.

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 

Basically what we've been paying Von Miller...🤢

What Reddick has over Huff is that he's been good for a longer period of time. Double digit sacks in four straight seasons.

But Huff had a career year last year and seems to be blossoming into an imposing pass rusher himself.

As I pointed out in my post, they two players had an identical 22% pass rush win rate last year.

As I also pointed out in my thread, Huff had just 1 less sack than Reddick, but on 289 less attempts. That's significant.

So yes, I'm suggesting that what Huff became last year may be roughly equal to what Reddick is now. I admit that Reddick has the proven longevity factor that Huff lacks, and perhaps you're insinuating that Huff's 2023 success was a flash in the pan, not likely to be duplicated.

Me? I'll take the 25 year old and the 2nd round pick over the 29 year old and the lack of that pick. YMMV.

Yeah yeah. We heard the same story last year. Rodgers is finished.

Huff might be better three years from now and it may put NY in a worse draft and cap position three year from now, but the Jets aren’t trying to win three years from now.  They’re all in right now, and Reddick is a much better player today.  Huff had a career year from a sack standpoint, but Reddick still had more while being a much better overall player.  I’m not a huge believer in “approximate value” metrics, but Reddick was an 8 last year, and Huff was a 2.  The year before, Reddick was a 15, and Huff was a 1.

That said, I don’t really disagree with anything you said up until the ‘Douglas loss, Howie win’ part.  Philly’s been to two Superbowls and won one in the last 6 years. They’re trying to build for the long-term.  The Jets don’t have that luxury.  They’re taking a rifle shot at winning now.  This “trade” furthers both of their interests, IMO.

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?

Injuries will be their major hurdle but that is a very good roster.

They don't scare me in the least. If they had a better coaching staff perhaps, but that team is a clown show. But hey, it seems they are shaping up as the offseason champions again

I would prefer the "clown show" not be opener for Bills.   Sometimes you are surprised when the clowns come out of the small car.

They’ve been pretty quiet this offseason, just building one of the best rosters in the league. 
 

Say what you want about Saleh but when he arrived they were 2-14 with one of the worst rosters in the league.

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

 

So your argument is that the management teams of the Eagles and Bills have made yet another error after disappointing seasons cut short in the playoffs while the current management team of the Jets who hasn't made the playoffs for 5 years is making all the right moves and have assembled a "dream team" with yet another of their annual off-season championships?

Robert Saleh has managed to win as many games in a single season as Adam Gase. He's truly reached the heights of success.
