Seeing as Indy tagged Jones, that leave Pierce. You think the Jets have an actual shot at getting this kid? (seriously...just wondering)
I sure hope so. He has the size they need at the position. Then they go ahead and draft Lemon too. Now all of a sudden WR is a position of strength …. I get the whole theory of not breaking the bank despite having all of that money but I would think the Jets sign at least one expensive but prudent FA to solve a position for the next 4-5 years and a player who would be around and contributing when this rebuild is complete…. For me it’s either Pierce at WR or Lindbaum at C. I think Pierce is the more likely one….
0.0% chance. The Bills just took themselves out of the market but Winning teams with competent quarterbacks will be after him and will pay him. Looking at the Chargers here…
i wouldn't say zero chance given the cap space the Jets have and in a market setting that is projecting him to get a $30m/per figure a lot are going to view as an overpay. To me Pierce is ultimately the type of player situation you want to fall into and get the most out of *before* you have to pay him open market money.
I really like Pierce but whenever I see him get hit, his knees go straight to the ground like magnetized. I'd be waiting for an ACL or MCL on every play. The Jets would probably have to pay obscene money to a FA receiver considering nobody knows their plan at QB.
