Nobody’s in the Jimmy G sweepstakes.  He is in the final year of his contract and this year carry’s $28M fully guaranteed.  Nobody has room for that and Jimmy would be unwise to budge.  He will collect his $ as a backup this year and get a shiny new contract next year as an FA.


Actually the contract is $24.2 mil. and other teams are supposedly negotiating where SF eats some of it like Cleveland did, and the new team assumes the rest.    Cleveland assumed $10 mil. Of the $18.8 mil. Owed to BM, Mayfield accepted $5 mil. Of the $8.8 mil. With incentives to get him back to $8.6 of the $8.8 mil.

 

SF has openly stated they want to trade him, and my bet is on Cleveland as Watson will most likely be suspended for a year.  Cleveland has $46.7 mil. on cap space vs. the Jets have $3+ mil.  
 

The Jets could try and move $ around, but Cleveland is more playoff ready.

Wilson is likely a bust and Flacco has outplayed him in camp, so this might actually help the Jets short term

 

I think Wilson can be good. It won't be for lack of effort if he does bust because he's put a lot of work in (of course JP Losman did as well by all accounts).

 

Wilson needs to clean up those boneheaded plays like the INT last night. He stared his receiver down the whole way and the LB just sat on it waiting for him to throw. If his injury isn't too bad and he can play this year I think he'll make a lot of spectacular plays but the question is now many of the easy throws he misses and how many of those stupid INTs he throws. 

 

He has weapons now so there's no excuses for him to not go up a level.

They have $3.8M in cap space with their top-51.  They would be fools to move a bunch of money around to try and accommodate Jimmy G on a 1-year rental.

Pretty obvious any trade would include him restructuring his contract or some sore of extension to lower the cap hit.

They wouldn't want to extend him when they would only want him for one year.
