Be Careful What You Wish For

I know this will meet with some criticism but here goes anyway!

Let's face it, fellow Jets fans. Our team needs a lot of help and we haven't been to a Super Bowl in 50 (count'em, 50) years! And I was a fan from day 1 of the Jets franchise. To be succinct, if, and it's a big if, the Jets sign Le'Veon Bell it will cost them in the neighborhood of $25m/year, and he wants a long-term deal, like maybe 5-6 years. That's 1/4 of the free agency money Mike Mac has to spend. And that's not even the bottom line. What do you think it will take in 3 years to pay the likes of Jamal Adams, Marcus Maye (assuming he can stay healthy)? Not to mention paying Sam Darnold (assuming he measure up to the hype)? This represents about 6% of the team's players! Just sayin' signing Bell might be a game changer, but with the holes in the offensive line (and not the ones being opened by the incumbent players), the team would do well to focus on getting some help for Darnold and whomever is carrying the rock!
