    Played 16 games every year in the League. We needed a decent depth 4/5 guy, who is actually available to play, and now we got one. Another decent move by JD.

    This your post from last off season. This wide WR group is still the worst in the NFL

    Looks like Jets are shopping at TJ Max instead of Bloomingdales.

    Definitely a "Douglas guy". I don't see why anyone is surprised, or doesn't like this signing.

    I worked at a TJ Max at a mall for a couple of months when I was in high school. I barely remember much about it except boning 2 of my female co workers in the changing rooms. Then one day I got to work and there was a wall where the door was supposed to be. At first I thought it was some kind of joke but they just up and closed the fucking store and didn't tell anybody, just put those fake walls up and didn't even put up a sign to say they closed.

    I was kind of happy, that job sucked.

    Were shopping at Dollar General, but paying TJ Max prices.

    Well apparently if you read enough, in the mind of some the Jets never do anything right. EVER.
    Did you guys notice that a few fans and some so called expert MEDIA analysts seem to shit on every single pick no matter what, with nebulous statements as “underwhelming” “worst in the league” “ should have gotten xyz instead” yet often don’t even know the first thing about the player. First they ever heard of him is when they read it on tweeter.
    We might not be flashy, we might miss on a couple, but to me they seem to fit the pattern JD talks about. Great upside and matches the CS game plan. No more overpaying at Bloomingdales for glamorous over priced failures like in the past, only to bitch about it after three games into the season. My two cents.

    How can you possibly be this upset over signing a productive player at 1yr 5.5mil for proper WR depth?

    He isn't limited to the slot either. He can play inside and outside.

    Given how fragile our WR room, I don't understand?

    Is it because ppl assume this signing means no JuJu?

    Keelan in 2020:

    5 starts
    88 targets
    55 receptions
    642 yards
    5 TDs

    Berrios

    2 starts
    55 targets
    35 receptions
    394 yards
    3 TDs

    They are basically the same player. Heck Berrios had to catch from Darnold so he might even be better.
    When one guy costs 8 hundred thousand, and the other guy costs 5.5 million for the same production- its a bad signing.

    This is not my idea of a good deal for added depth.

    They aren't even close to the same kind of player.

    It's baffling you are trying to make that argument stick.

    EDIT: Also.. what contract would you believe to be acceptable for a productive player who stays healthy, which we desperately need? Curious If you think they are paying receivers with hand sanitizer and peanuts now adays?

    Cole had nearly 40% more production across the board, how are they "the same"?
    Not to mention Berrios is 5'9" and Cole is 6"1"

    When I say they are the same player - I mean production wise.

    Very nice signing. He's WR4 for us and very versatile. Also plays specials. The fact that people are complaining about this is absurd. We are also hoping Mims takes another big step forward and becomes who we thought he would be.

    Also, Cole is a very good PR and KOR. You can't say the same about Berrios.
