Exaggeration yes, but the Jets awful defense held them to 45 yards in the second half. After watching the tape, it was closer by score than by play imo
What is the risk that's involved? Is it just financial? How much money are we talking? He's be an immediate upgrade. Our LB unit is terrible.
No investment this year. He has $10 million in injury guarantees for next year that become fully guaranteed in March. The only risk for bringing him in is that if he got injured in the final 5 games, he will be guaranteed $10 million. I’d at least put in the claim personally.
I would too. They guy can play and maybe Saleh can square the guy away. But I'm not sure he's a Douglas type of guy.
This team desperately needs help at LB and people don't want to claim a talented player solely because the Houston Texans don't want him anymore?
I would claim him. The team needs to consistently add talented players. I was just raising the point that you might not get quite as much out of him as you would if you were a contender. NFL players are also thinking about their next contract though so who knows. Dude appears to be a tackling machine.
I remember when JETS fans were gushing about how the FO won't sign locker room headaches...... This one gotr me wondering, Is it not that serious, or is the FO fos?
I just don't think there's any real indication he s a locker room headache in a halfway decent circumstance. Is the entire Houston locker room a headache? No one likes ownership or management there.
Are we a halfway decent circumstance? Maybe as a fan looking a year or two down the road we are but as a player… probably hard to see the forest through the trees when you know you could have ended up with a contender but had no say in the matter. I’m personally in favor of it, I just don’t think it’s a Douglas-type move at all.
Maybe Douglas won't be interested, but Saleh is very well respected by all accounts within the player community.
no guarantees for 2022 in his contract. Whoever picks him up is just due to pay him the peanuts remaining for the final 5 games. Douglas better pick him up
