25 years old, 66.0 passer rating allowed last year, low missed tackle numbers, very good run defender. I love this

Jets sign Seahawks CB DJ Reed is 5'9"

That is a JD type signing. Reed is still young, and he is on the rise. He was a role player until last season, when he earned a starting spot.

 

[gmf1369]

Reed, 25, was a fifth-round pick of the 49ers in 2018 and spent his first two years there with Robert Saleh. Played in Seattle in 2020-21. Has four career interceptions in 55 games, 24 starts.

CONTRACT: 3 Years $33M

how do we deploy him, paying him $11 M annual.

Wow, $11 million? He is a smaller DB. I would have thought him for the slot, but you have Michael DB Carter. Does he uproot Echols?

 

[Seaver41]

damn that seems expensive at first glance

3 years $33 Million
he will start but where?
move MC2 to the outside? Reed new nickel?
I don't get it.
Could he be the safety? I am torn on this move.

5'9" not exactly prime size for safety

I am sure Saleh and Douglas have a plan for it, but I'm not sure I see it right now. Someone will have to move somewhere. A pure #1 CB might have made more sense. Bring in someone for the outside, slide Hall back to the #2, and then you have MC2 in the slot, Echols there for Hall and CB1.

This, I have no idea what the plan is.

Echols to safety?

 

[gmf1369]

Echols to safety?

Echols dime corner
MC2 to safety
DJ Reed new NB?
thats my best guess

Nickel's gotten pretty expensive, in that case. Man!

I’m not a fan of this signing

 

[TebowCan'tThrow]

All excited about Williams and this is the big splash we got. Well my positivity is taking a hit.

 

[Seaver41]

so this is gonna be Hall and DJ on outside.........

Balance, we need your spin to make this all make sense. He’s our new enforcer in the Jamal Adams role . It only makes sense that way .

I think Williams was worth the money and would have make a huge impact in this defense. A couple extra years should not have been the reason for not signing a 25 year old.
