I will cut you some slack since you're a Pats troll and not a Jets fan. So you really don't know much about the Jets just like I wouldn't pretend to know much about the Pats.

You are very low on Slausen, the guy is a starter, not Faneca by any means but to think he is going to sign for less than what back ups make. It is one thing for a team in mid-august to cut a players salary, when rosters are set around the league. Slausen IMO will get a 3 year deal at 2 mill easily.
Slauson plays about 70% of the snaps, Ducasse plays the other 30%. Slauson is not the entrenched no doubt about it starter, that hurts his value a lot.

Like wise Devito will get 2X what you budget. DeVtio is a 30 snap a game guy
as a run stuffer in both a 3-4 and 4-3. That is value.
You may be right, but I never said that he would sign for as much as I suggested. What I said is that is how much money I would offer. Devito won't be a starter here so he shouldn't get paid like one.

Folk is having a great year, you think he is going to sign long term for 1/3rd of what Goskowski makes? to me 3 years and 5 mill is what is is going to take. The dolphins kicker is at 75% and his longest is 46 yards, kicking in ideal conditions.
the packers kicker is at 67%
Folk is 12/13 this year so far and probably will end up 20/23 or somewhere around there unless he collapses. He may command more money, I don't really know. I just put an estimate down. And just b/c the Patriots paid a ton of money to a kicker who comes up small in big spots doesn't mean the Jets will do the same thing.

Trading Cro to save 5 mill? I dont get it.
Not only will you save $5 million but they would most likely get a 2nd rd pick for him as well. With Revis out it's been plain to see that you can still have a very good secondary with only 1 stud CB, there really is not a need for 2. What the Jets need is a better pass rush and the cap savings and/or the extra pick could address that weakness. Revis is better then Cromartie but his value is down b/c of the injury so Cromartie would get you a better return b/c at this point he's playing like a top 5 CB. Sell high.

Extending Harris now has the makings of what Scott/Pace are now. Overpaid
Extending Harris 1 year like I suggested would only cost the Jets $2 million guaranteed in 2015 (very cuttable) and he would only be 31, hardly the same situation that Pace and Scott are in.

Starting RT is very light$$$. Backus was home town all the way. And Anthony Collins got that to be a back up.
Very well thought out post.[/QUOTE]

At this point you're not looking for a top caliber RT b/c the Jets don't have the money for that b/c they have a lot of other needs. You're looking for a competent stop gap, they don't command big money.
