Should the Jets target Joe Flacco in FA? - Jets Insider.com Forums

JoeyStylez · 01-06-2013, 11:17 PM

I know it's a long shot. Most likely Flacco isn't going anywhere, and even if he tests the market the Jets may not have enough money to get him. But if he DOES test FA, and the Jets CAN free up enough money, should the Jets go after him? I say YES.

Beerfish · 01-06-2013, 11:32 PM

No. He will resign in Balt anyway.

carlito1171 · 01-06-2013, 11:35 PM

yea, and then let's hire Cam Cameron to be the OC and have a fullout reunion

Why would you even start a thread like this?

Next up: "Should the Jets Persue a Trade for peyton Manning? I say YES!"

Let's just invent a time machine and bring back the 1962 Joe Namath while we're at it

Ron Swanson · 01-06-2013, 11:52 PM

no. flacco sucks.

JoeyStylez · 01-07-2013, 01:12 AM

I started this thread because it's a legitimate question, whether you think so or not. Also, because I felt like it. If you think it's an absurd idea, then don't post here.

Yes, it's probably not going to happen. I already said that, if you can read you would've seen it already. I"m just asking a realistic hypothetical situation. Stranger things have happened in free agency.

Zarathustra · 01-07-2013, 01:16 AM

No Flacco.

We want Romo.

Romo isn't a FA... And Flacco will get franchised...

McGinley · 01-07-2013, 05:16 AM

Flacco will receive the franchise tag. Best FA possibility would be Alex Smith.

RichardTodd27 · 01-07-2013, 09:00 AM

Sadly I think our best (and most realistic) option is Matt Flynn.
With RGIII's injury, Cousins aint going anywhere and I'm not a A. Smith guy.

dustykeller · 01-07-2013, 09:13 AM

sign a journeyman QB (A.Smith for example) to compete with Sanchez in TC, and draft a new franchise QB in 2014 (Carr, Bridgewater or Manziel).

Next year won't be pretty...but it will be necessary.

Wait, you're not putting Gary Nova of Rutgers on your list of 2014 franchise QB's?

DDNYjets · 01-07-2013, 09:24 AM

Flacco is going nowhere.

5 years, 5 playoff appearances. Has won a playoff game every year. 2 AFCCG appearances. And a drop away from a SB appearance.

I will never understand all the Flacco hate. If Billick had Flacco he might still be the coach in Baltimore.

How is it legitimate?

There is no evidence that the Ravens and Flacco will be parting ways.

There is no evidence the Jets have any interest in Flacco.

So what, exactly, legitimizes your fantasy thread again?

Like I said, you may as well have asked if the "Jets should persue a trade for Peyton Manning and Drew Brees to back him up" as silly as the OP is.

Appreciate the advice, but I prefer to post, and point out how stupid I feel the OP idea is due to it's almost total lack of basis in reality.

Oh, I read it, which only further serves to illustrate the stupidity of the idea. You know it's not going to happen, yet you felt you just had to ask anyway?

If so, why not aim a little higher? I hear Peyton Manning and Drew Brees might be on the trading block.

Sure it has. I'm sure the Ravens will happily allow the best QB in their recent history to walk to New York.

Totally realistic, not Madden 2013'esque in any way.

Really.

I think you should start a "Should the Jets Persue a Trade for QB Cousins" next.
