Yeah I like this more the more I think about it. Sauce is still elite but we have bigger needs and two firsts is a great haul. We're much better set up to draft a QB now.
You may remember him as the guy who has 0 career TDs because he dropped the ball before crossing the goal line.
Sure, but the way this QB class is shaking out it'll be really nice to have another first rounder so we can draft a QB later in round 1 without having to move our primary pick.
TWO FIRST ROUND PICKS!! We always talk about the Jets getting a haul of picks for certain players; they just got a haul in this trade. Wow!
Wow that is a blockbuster like JD’s trade of Jamal Adams Honestly I’m not super happy about this trade as I just think you never get better by trading away great players, and tackling issues or not, Sauce is one of the best CBs in the league in coverage and along with Q is one of our best defensive guys. I think these idiots got excited when we won without him and figured they could keep that going, but this is not a good trade…our defense sucks already…we just made it worse. Hard to get TOO upset at the return, but still…it’s fucking easy to do the “TEAR DOWN” part of it…it’s much harder to do the “REBUILD” part of it. We are now hoping that Mougey can use those picks to do better than an All Pro CB…premium position, and a top player at it who we can put up against the opponent’s WR1 every week. Ugh…here we go again… Sorry to be a downer but we have so precious few good draft picks, and for some reason this team always finds a way to get rid of the few good picks we make and then we wonder why we continue to suck. Unbelievable to me. We always do this and we always get the same spin…same bullshit like “well we weren’t winning WITH him, so we can continue to lose WITHOUT him” or “two first round picks!! Too good to pass up!” It’s all bullshit…chances are those picks will not be All Pro’s, and then we wonder why we can’t fucking build a fucking team.
He's an idiot but he's also a young athletic freak. Not a bad guy to take a flier on. Just gravy after the two firsts anyway.
Two firsts in the mid to late 20s and a "flier" guy for a top 3 player at his position at the start of his prime. Boy where do I sign up?
For TWO first round picks?!?!? ABSOLUTELY a good deal. Sauce Gardner may be one of the most overrated players ever to wear the Jets Uniform. He was a good player. He should NEVER be mentioned in the same sentence as Derelle Revis.
ya think so? I think the Colts will fade down the stretch. I think this pick will be in the early 20s range and next year who knows
wow....sucks that we have a superstar being traded but this is similar to revis that CB won't help you win a SB...at least getting 2 first back is a good haul! lets see how it works out
in case you didn't notice among all your bitching, the Jets are 1-7* at 1-7, every single player should be, and is, available for trade. And multiple 1st round draft picks are sorely needed. *the one win actually happened without Gardner on the field
The Colts still play the Chiefs, 49ers, Seahawks, Jags 2x, Texans 2x and a weird game next week in Spain against the up and down Falcons. They’ve beaten the Dolphins, Titans(2x), Raiders, Cardinals, lucked out with a leverage call by the Broncos and to their credit beat the Chargers. Their schedule is brutal compared to what they’ve faced.
