Lots of guys locking in longterm extensions the past few days. It's that time of year before the season starts. We need to get the extension with Wilkerson done now. Make it happen, Tanny!  |

Make it happen at the end of the year, see how he performs, maybe injury, no need to take an unnecessary risk. If he has another great year or even better, his value really won't go up too much as it is already high. |

I agree for sure but mcC has shown he is no Idzik with the wallet, spent big on UFAs and even our own FA, Harris. And since the market for the players better (Watt) and not as good or as good (guy in NO,guy in Pitts, etc) makes me think that Mo and his guys are being unreasonable and unrealistic. Too bad, I would love to get this done now. |

The big difference between Wilk, Jones and Williams is that their respective teams were actually trying for some time now to get a deal done. Not so much in Wilk's case with all the stagnation.
I wouldn't be surprised if a deal gets done, and I want it to happen, but Mac may really be deadset on letting things play out.

There is a parody thread to be made here. If only I was clever enough.

Clock is ticking.
Just saw an ESPN headline that read, "QB Eli Manning, Giants optimistic contract extension can be reached before season opener."

According to what I just read over on Brian Coz's Twitter page, Mac has until Sunday...after that, Mo won't talk until season's end.

Mac has zero reason to get this deal done anytime soon.
Players play like animals when it is their contract year. We need Wilkerson to play like an animal to be a dominate D and have a chance for a playoff berth. Im looking for a 12+ sack season and constant pressure if I want to give this man superstar money.
If Wilk does, then I believe Bowles can keep him motivated even with the big pay day. If Wilk fails to produce a huge season than Wilk has no leverage and should sign a decent deal.
The other factor is Richardson. This suspension has lowered his price tag significantly, and with the threat of a year long suspension looming over his head he will be in no position to be demanding anything anytime soon.

Update from Cimini (that is not really an update). I think it is unlikely that anything gets done before the seeason, but this regime seems to keep things quiet, so I guess you never know if they might be close.

The Jets would like to get a deal done with Mo Wilkerson. Don't know if it'll happen this week. Ongoing situation. #nyj

Or Wilk walks away, big season or not. I guess we technically have the Franchise/Transition Tag so there's that. But that's not good faith negotiating. |

Had to wait until the last post in the thread for someone to say this. Completely agree - it's double-edged. The reason to get the deal done now is that we know Mo is a player, and more than likely his value is only going to go up. Not making an effort to show him long-term stability COULD mean that he might try to find that long-term stability elsewhere. Even if the Jets come to the table with big money. There is definitely SOME reason to consider locking Mo up now, rather than later. |
