Oakland And if they'd cough up #14 and maybe a mid round pick, I'd send his ass out to the Bay in a heartbeat. That extra 1st rounder plus the additional $16 million in cap space could go a long way. I don't even need the mid round pick, I'd trade him straight up for pick 14. WTF planet am I living in where we are ok with giving away one of the 3 best 3-4 lineman's in the league outside of JJ watt for the 14th pick? Doesn't make any sense.

Mo will be re-signed. Snacks will be re-signed. Fitz will be re-signed. All of this panic is for naught, it's all about these reporters and columnists needing something to write about. Right now, before they cut or restructure anyone else, the Jets have what....an estimated 21 million cap space? If the franchise tag on Mo is $15.4 million, you figure they can negotiate a contract where his cap hit this year is around $10 million Likewise, you can negotiate a contract where Snacks' cap hit this year is about $5 million Fitz's cap hit on a new contract for this year could be around $3-5 million. That fits under the space we have right now, without any other cuts or restructures and its based on the "conservative" estimate that the cap will be $155 They'll be back....don't you worry. What?... No offense dude, but unless you plan on pitching in with the lawsuit money you won against your diddler-uncle, then think again If there's anything one took away from today's press-conference, it's the fact that The Mac is willing to do whatever he needs to do to manage the cap. The cap the single constant thread in today's conversation. There's NO way we're keeping Snacks & MoWilk... AND resigning Fitz... It's clear our brass has an agenda, it's not to live and die by the extensions of last year's play.

Even coming off a broken leg, Mo is worth more than #14 and a mid-round pick.

Hard to know what exactly he wants, but if that is the case then you franchise him for this year, and then have a year more to get something done. If he still is reaching for the stars then you let him go and we get a 3rd round comp pick back. No way you trade him for next year unless you are getting a #1pick AND an impact starter, and I don't think any team would want to give that up.

I know this isnt popular but I'd rather we franchise and trade Mo, pick up the pick and maybe a player to fill a need (OL is my first choice) it frees up a space on the line so we are not using players out of position, next year resign sheldon to an incentive laden contract with a HUGE performance clause and use this years pick to get the BPA. I love mo but am not interested in paying him that much money long term, have that glut on the line, he's coming off a broken leg and this is the first year (maybe 2nd) that he's broken 10 sacks a year. I know there are many other things he brings to the table but considering our weak pressure I'd want a little more history of sacks or less money than he is probably willing to take.

Bang on my black and white friend. We aren't goin to the playoffs with him at the moment anyway, and he's good but not game changin good Not worth the money IMO, trade his ass and grab a QB and a LB or OL in the first.

At this point, I'm kind of hoping this scenario works out like this.
Franchise Mo. Then trade him for picks(and I wouldn't think the haul would include a high first, or a first at all potentially.)
Sign Snacks.
Fitz is coming back, matter of how much, not if.
I was against trading Wilk for a long time, but I've finally come to grips with the current makeup of the D has reached it's peak as a good but not great unit. That's mostly because a majority of our best players are all DL and all with similar skill sets. If trading Mo allows us to have the flexibility to make the D more diverse, and younger and faster, then I'm on board.
Not saying I think that will happen, but would be my preference. Certainly could happen.
Edit: so in summary, exactly what Penquin already said.

I don believe you. I heard you're the yin to Kelly's yang and really have a vag. And not a very pretty one at that. Don't shoot the messenger. That's just what I heard.

In the salary cap era, you are not going to have a pro bowler at every position and sometimes you have to pick your poison.
