Salary Cap Mode: Basic

As a Jets fan I am a little worried about the coaching staff that we have. it seems like PoMo has lost the locker room a little bit. Watching it seems like wheeler is the one running the ship and that worries me. .

Aging Wheeler and his long-term contact scare me, I know that right now he is still a 75-90 point guy but in a couple years I see that contract being really bad. The reason I say that is that Wheeler won't want the sheltered minutes he should probably receive and that may shorten his career. Wheeler at this point in time could yield a great return in a trade, not an insane amount but he can definitely fetch a good return.

I also think that Buff is starting to get up there in age, he's still a dynamic player that really dictates the pace of a game. He doesn't scare me as bad as his contract expires after the 2020-2021 season. But I do think he is someone that the Jets could sell high on and receive some solid pieces in return for.

Bryan Little is someone who I think needs to go but will be hard to get rid of. He has an awful contract and he's pretty much a 3c. I don't know how the jets move him, maybe he gets picked in Seattle draft but I personally think he needs to go.

I think that if the Jets are out of a playoff spot by TDL this season, there should be some change in the lineup. If they want t extend their window in which they can contend, they should maybe look towards an accelerated rebuild and a quick retool. I don't think that the Jets have a very strong F prospect pool outside of Appleton and Vesalainen. They could sell high on some aging players and really retool and extend their contention window.

Obviously roster isn't complete, this post is just made to spark conversation about changes that could/should happen. I think there needs to be some change if the Jets want to stay contenders for a good amount of time.
