“Overpay” for Robby Anderson if necessary

Just something to think about, but Crowder had more receptions & more yards and made $9.5M last year on the first year of his deal.

Something else to consider too, Robbie was wide open several times that Sam missed which could have made the stats go the other way just as easily. Have to blame that on Sam, I guess.

You're right Tony. A golden opportunity missed there. Now his improved stats have gone to his head. Like I said though, he deserves to get paid for his skill but not exorbitantly. Rumor has it he's asking min 12mil.

I have read reports of $10 ,$12 and $15 million. I think they are all false. I'd bet his agent has advised him to test the market and see both how much $ is offered and what teams make the offer. $10-12 mill per year from The Chiefs, Ravens, Patriots and a bunch of others has to be more appealing than the same amount from the Jets and there's no Adam Gase to deal with.

Because he was Darnold's check down option and he constantly missed Anderson. Both Gase and Douglas said exactly that in their end of year pressers. A more developed QB and better line, Crowder's production drops and Anderson's increases by a wide margin.

So Enunwa's deal starts at $9M, probably will be in the same ballpark that they will offer Robby. That being said, it was Mac that signed Enunwa, so Douglas may not see that kind of value in Anderson.

That just may be Darnold to be honest. Last season he went to Enunwa and Herndon a ton! He just seems to like bigger targets, so is Anderson really the guy you want to spend on??

He actually targeted Anderson more than either Herndon or Enunwa last year and this year he targeted Anderson near the same # of times with the exception of the first and last game. 10 more targets week 1 and 5-6 more week 17.
It's football, your gonna pay.
The only question is, do you believe Darnold's deep accuracy is going to improve. If you do, then yes. Resign him. If you don't, then you look for possession recievers. But you give up the ability to stretch the field and spread the defense.
