    Move on from Rodgers now. Sign Carr before Carolina can get to him for a second time.

    With the franchise tag deadline coming on Tuesday, I'm really feeling like this saga is about to come to an end next week.

    If true, pick up the phone Joe and bring an end to this saga. If Rodgers wanted Jets we would have known by now. Move in and close the deal Joe.

    Exactly. This is his camp sending a message, "let's go".

    Yup, looks like Carr's people are saying, 'we're ready, move-in or bye-bye.'
    If nothing's done in the next few days, it looks like Woody wants AR, & is willing to keep waiting.
    It's time to get a deal done, & move on with Carr, & getting the rest of the team, & the cap situation in-order for free-agency & the draft.

    Obviously no one besides JD, Woody, and Saleh, knows what's really going on, but my guess is that if they really wanted Carr he would be signed by now. Given that he isn't, it indicates that they really want Rodgers, and I suspect that they've had some signs from him and GB that they can get their wish. But I also think they've put a deadline on any such deal, and if it doesn't get done by then, they'll pivot to DC.

    Understandably we Jets fans, having been burned by ineptitude for so long, are fearing the worst, and it may come to that, but so many people are getting worked up and making dire predictions when they have no idea what's really happening. Woody and Douglas are fully aware of this angst and don't want to give us more reason to bail that they have already. They have a huge vested interest in getting one of these two guys, and I would guess that Woody has told Douglas that there's no limit to the check he can write to get that done.

    None of this guarantees it will happen, but there's more reason to believe it will than it won't.

    If he wanted the Packers, Raiders or whatever team, would they know by now?

    I figure that Douglas knows if he ends up standing there with his hat in his hands with Rodgers retiring and Carr signing somewhere else, that's probably going to be his job down the line.

    I would assume that Carr's agent will give the signal to sign or else, Joe will check with Rodgers one last time and when he flakes, Joe will sign Carr.

    I want Carr but I hate To say it if we pass on Rogers Then Miami It will swoop in and get Rogers.
    If Rogers truly wants to be A jet then he would have said something buy now For fear that the Jets would take Carr instead. Sign Carr & get on with it.

    As I Posted weeks ago, AR is fuckin with the Jets..let him go and get Carr in here !!

    DC : Younger and more milage to get us to a Championship or just a Playoff spot

    I am in favor of getting the best talent assembled from OL to QB...right now

    After that ,, and we still cant Win, Saleh and Douglas have to be replaced. And having Carr and rookies with big upside just might attract a big-name Coach to push us over the Top

    Definitely getting to a point where I move on and sign Carr. The added benefit of not having to give up any draft picks for Carr and that he's available to play for the next 5+ years made the decision contentious to begin with. Now hearing he wants here, let's go. Let's make this thing happen. Aaron seems like he has a foot out the door if he really needs to wait this long to decide if he wants to play or not.

    Miami is not getting Rodgers dude. They have Tua. If they go after a quarterback it’ll be a guy like Dalton or Minshew. A backup who can step in and make a few injury related starts. Exhale.

    Jets are playing with fire.

    Sign Carr and end this charade now.

    Or get burned once again.

    Typical Jetsian result: Woody waits and waits for Rodgers, Carr signs with NO and then Rodgers decides to stay in GB. Zwilson is starter by default.
