    Fun Info: If Adams was still on the Jets, they still would have lost to Buffalo today and if he wasn't on Seattle, they still would have beat the Falcons.

    So you're saying Seattle gave up 2 first round picks for a non impact player? Lol. Yours saying Jamal Adams was not the best player on Seattle's D today? You're saying NYJ defense doesn't miss Adams? Clueless.

    Seattle fans are LOVING HIM and lol laughing at you.v

    Maybe you should read what was written in context before replying in an ignorant sounding manor.

    I don't believe anyone here is denying that.

    Seems we have a bunch of replies int this thread who are simply incapable of understanding the OP and context of the discussion and instead are letting disdain for a player get in the way of replying within context.

    If JD fucks up the picks, then Seattle and the rest of the NFL has the right to laugh out loud at the Jets. Perhaps we can dispense with the platitudes for JD until we see more results now??? AG has the luxury of not being able to be fired by anyone other than Chris Johnson CEO. Desir sucked yesterday and if he doesn't turn it around PDQ, JD's rep as a talent evaluator will take a huge hit.

    I'd say that Becton and Mims will tell us a lot more about Douglas' talent evaluation than Desir. And if Gase has a start similar to last year, his seat will start to warm up a bit. Don't forget that he likely had Chris' ear last year when Maccagnan was still the GM. Well, he's running out of excuses now.

    Those two guys have to come thru for us. If JD picks 2 real players for every bum, the math is in our favor.

    I didn't say any of that. In my opinion, Adams doesn't swing the game in Buffalo to a Jets win or swing the Seahawks win in Atlanta to a loss without him. The Jets offense was terrible and the Seahawks offense was great. We have enough historical data to back up that statement.

    A cornerstone for a football teams shouldn't be a SS. It should be QB, or Edge, or at least a stud WR, stud CB, or LT, but definitely not SS.

    Anderson did not have a monster day. He had something like 115 yards, one TD, and a 2 point reception. 75 yards of that came on his TD reception, and if the CB hadn't totally misplayed the ball and Anderson, that catch would have only been good for 10-15 yards. He took a bad angle, whiffed on the tackle and Anderson had clear sailing.

    why not? game changers come from all over the field. tell me troy polamalu wasnt a game changer and a cornerstone of the steelers defenses? football people know that your best players play the middle of the field, nt, ilb and safety are all very very important. they dont get the notoriety that a big sack guy gets but football people know they are just as important.

    adams is a different breed, he plays all over the field, not just where you expect him and he makes plays at every level of the field. i felt he made gregg williams defense dynamic last year. it was quite a bit less dynamic yesterday than it was. and we can blame personnel for that outside of adams but adams surely made a difference.

    im still annoyed by how jets fans turned on him for basically nothing, still hound him on twitter like fucking children and that things turned sour enough that he is gone. but he will surely be successful in seattle and im sure doesnt give a half a bit of a shit what we all think at this point.

    I don't know that JD's rep as a talent evaluator will take a huge hit based on a 30 year-old Desir. It was only a stopgap signing hoping he could return to his form of a couple of years ago. Don't forget that JD's right hand man, Rex Hogan, was Director of Player Personnel with the Colts. I imagine that he had some strong input. I also imagine that Greg Williams had significant input into what type of CB he wanted (zone vs man) and which CB he wanted.

    Also, which CB was better that the Jets should have signed in FA instead? Don't forget that he had lots of holes to fill, needed to add 2-3 CBs, and had Poole to re-sign. Should he have signed 31 year-old Patrick Peterson for $14 million? 33 year-old Richard Sherman for $9 million? 31 year-old DJ Haden for $6.3 million? 27 year-old Mackenzie Alexander for $4 million? Personally, I think I preferred Alexander, Ronald Darby or maybe Bashaud Breeland, but knew we needed to add 2-3 CBs .

    I totally disagree. SS is one of the least important positions on a team. ILB is also not that important. LT, CB, and Edge are all more important than the positions you mentioned. WIth the exception of the last couple of drafts where there have been some real studs at NT, one almost never sees a team draft an NT early in the draft. They draft someone that's a big space eater in the later rounds or even as a UDFA.

    The Jets turned on Adams? ROFLMAO!!! Dude, you are clueless! You really need to do some research It was Adams that turned on the Jets and forced the trade. JD didn't want to trade him. Adams forced his hand by trashing Gase, the Johnsons, and JD, and saying that he'd sign with a list of 7-8 teams, and wouldn't expect a new contract from some of them.

    This trade is still an A plus like the day it was made. Jamal did us a huge favor acting like a bratty teenager cause they likely would’ve made the mistake of giving him a record setting deal otherwise.

    Seahawks won that game cause they have a top 3 QB. Jamal was part of a secondary that gave up 450 yds passing.

    it's irrelevant to the trade. it's asset to asset. doens't matter what happens after

    for example if you trade a civic for a lambo you can't say it's a bad trade because your gonna crash the lambo

    I certainly don't believe that. Because I live in a very diverse area and we don't like racists who can't see racism. So, yeah, don't worry I wouldn't want to live a cesspool that includes your home.

    Not quite the truth that though is it?

    Maye took Adams role in the team and McDougald slotted into Mayes position.

    I also, don't really care tbh, Adams became an arse and we are best off out of his games, a quality player no denying it but he was becoming troublesome on a weekly basis.

    We got a good trade, ranking it even higher as we usually get butt fucked, now fingers crossed JD does something with them when the time comes.
