This has been a rumor brewing for a few days and we all have our opinions on Kyle Wilson. Some of us, including quotes I have seen from anonymous coaches, have him jotted down as a hard working corner well capable of doing his job in nickel and dime packages. Others, also including quotes from anonymous coaches around the league .. have him as a semi bust first rounder who does not make any impact plays. On that note, if we did put him on the block could we expect any real value in return? He is in a contract year and the JETS brass will be making that decision soon regardless. I actually agree with both points of view above, though leaning towards the bust opinion, but only on the first rounder angle of it. I am curious to see your points of view not only as him as a player but also including if we should/could get more value for him before, during or after the draft or extending/resigning him.
I cannot post links here but here of course you can google it and a few instantly come up. Sorry but can an admin delete the first post/poll as it was upped accidentally .. the second has the correct poll with it. One of the first that come up is from the latino post.
I havent found the source of it either but I just started seeing alot of speculation about it today also..
wilson is not getting traded, he may be re-signed after the year is over and end up manning the nickle spot for 10 years for the jets. considering our draft history, k.w. is pretty far from a bust, he was the 29th pick and although he never became a pro bowler he has been dependable and contributes to the team. we would do well to have that kind of "bust" more often
I think we have enough questions at the CB position, without loosing KW. He's not great, but he fills a need. I guess there could be a couple of CB in the draft they like, but I don't see us starting 2-1/2 rookies.
Here is the article. http://www.latinopost.com/articles/...s-ny-jets-looking-to-trade-cb-kyle-wilson.htm
The only place they got that from is Cimini who is speculating with no source whatsoever. It's not a rumor, it's what one guy speculated and another guy heard and said again.
I fail to see why any team would be interested in Wilson, he's barely a starter. Id rather have a 6th round pick lol.
He doesn't have much value at all and there's no reason to trade him in the first place. He's a decent corner and it's not like we have tons of great CBs on our team.
That article is bullshit, nothing in that article speculates that he's on the block. Sick of people hating on Wilson. Sure, he doesn't make many plays, but he doesn't GIVE UP many plays either. https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2014/04/10/sig-stats-slot-cornerbacks/ Educate yourselves, Wilson haters.
He's pretty much a league average CB. But Jets fans are spoiled by Revis and to a lesser extent Cromartie.
yeah sometimes i feel like people forget QBs make completions every once in a while and it sure as hell wasn't going revis's way when he was on our team
