I believe this, other teams told Adams' agent that they were trying to trade for his client and JD did place a price tag which no one would dare agree too...

It is the job of a GM to listen to all offers no matter how ridiculous it may seem or just because some desperate organization might just sell the house for one player...

Have to believe that every GM has an untouchable list and Joe D's list includes Sam Darnold, Le'Veon Bell, Jamal Adams and CJ Mosley just because what they mean to the team... Now of course if the right offer came for anyone of those four then would be stupid not to consider it...

Also have to remember, teams want to cause friction between players and their current situations because when those situations are heading to free agency it makes it that much easier to pouch those players away from the original/current teams...

Yes we know Adams stated in the past he would of loved to play in Dallas because it is his hometown team, but his father played in New York not the Jets but all the same it has meaning to him... I do believe him when he said he made it known he is happy here and wants to stay with gang green...
If I'm guessing, I would guess that your explanation seems pretty reasonable and very well could be the case. I'd like to hope it is anyway

I agree that he probably price tag on Adams that no one would pay. It's very clear he likes Adams and wants to keep him. GM's have "speak" about players. His description of Adams was unequivocal in his praise for him - mission statement player. That speaks volumes. You don't say that publicly unless you mean it.

Maybe we should give this baby a bottle...….this is the NFL.....yes he needs more support but we keep going back to Dallas...one game lol. He has great tools but he needs to get better like the guy that shares the stadium with him & has a blue uniform. Will he???? I hope so but I am tired of this Sam needs this, & Sam needs that...…..Jim brown said just give me the dam ball. So did Jim Thorpe. Right now & in the past "Sammy" was/is a turnover machine. So yes, just like the Big M in Arizona I hope they become the big two in the NFL...….For now I have a mickey mouse band-aid for his thumb that has a little boo-boo. Anyone ever seen the Bomb Namath tossed to Don Maynard in the cold with the wind & a twisted thumb to beat Oakland in 68.....I did.

look at Bill Belichick' pressers.....he looks up...when he wears a hat it is tilted up not down...…..he has nothing to hide except where he puts the camera...….. Stand up like a man guys. Tilt the hat back or take it off let everyone see you as you are...…..don't look like clowns. I give Kingsbury lots of credit he faces you & does not hide...….I wonder how many locks they have on the front door to the Jets office?

tells me they are owning that we are a 1-6 team...
Gase knows not to look up because the taco gifs start appearing again...

as for JD he looks down because he is trying to see if he can finally see his feet...

I had the same thought. JD better start pushing away the plates of pasta or he'll be looking up at a cardiothoracic surgeon about to put in a stent.

LOL How true......we should get them Darth vader masks in green

Look The D man could be great..... so could have the Titanic but when they start going down bow first you must show some concern, I also think Douglas could be good. way too early to tell but Gaze took off early in one of the life boats with a cork screw in his pocket to let the water out of the boat...…time to cut bait

My house is not for sale, I love my house, my family loves our house. I have great neighbors, my kids have plenty of friends.
If someone knocks on my door and gives me twice it’s value, I couldn’t sign the papers fast enough.
At this point why wouldn't you take calls on every player. Reports yesterday were that every player except for Darnold and Q. Williams was up for grabs. Well no one is stepping up and doing there part, including coaches, GM, other team personnel and the owners. I honestly don't want to say that its never been this bad because I probably be lying but it feels like it. As far as the players go, whether it's because they need others players to help them preform better or they just don't want it bad enough or their not good enough or they don't like the HC.

Whatever it is, none of our players (including Darnold and Q. Williams) are playing well enough to not warrant hearing any trade calls on them. Could the situation have been handled differently, I don't know and I don't care really but something has to be done. Whether some or all the players go or the coaches or the GM or the damn owners themselves. Something has got to change for the better here. The shit just ain't fair to all us fans who spend all our time, energy and thousands of dollars on team gear, tickets, direct TV etc...

GM Douglas: Jamaal Adams is off limits. We will not trade Adams, The Cowboys GM: We will give 3 first Rd picks and 2 2nd Rd picks for Adams. What would you do if you were the GM? Adams is very good, but 3 firsts and 2 2nds. You got my attention

I listen to the entire presser. He made a couple of arsine statements that boarder on being delusional. The first, when he replied to a reporter (probably NY Daily news) who asked how he felt about his team being non competitive. His response was he thinks his team is competitive.... The second was he things AG is a good FB coach.... Say what Joe…. we talking about the same coach who is 1-6 here and 24-32 overall, 25 of which have been double digit losses - think about that, he lost more games by double digits than he has won...

I know its these are PC / PR statements but does he really believe that the beat writers and fans are going to believe that dribble? I swear what a cluster F this team is.

That part got me, too. Douglas said Gase is a “great coach and a great communicator”. LMFAO! Shill much? Go find me the players on Miami from last year and this year's Jets who would agree with this ridiculous appraisal of Gase.
