While the Jets would presently accept NEITHER trade offer for PLD---the one you propose, NOR the return you got for Eichel---before declining, the Jets would take an extra few minutes looking at an offer of Tuch, Krebs, a 1st Round and a 2nd Round Pick . . . as the other offer is less satisfactory at meeting our needs and wants as a franchise. So . . . the "dubois package is NOT better than eichel." Not to us.
This should make you feel good, though . . . it shows that the deal you got for your one-time franchise savior is the better one. You did well there. Good job.
While appreciated that you feel we are overvaluing our asset and should accept such a trade(s), we feel PLD is a key to our group and want to continue "overvaluing" him as a member of our team unless his performance wanes considerably, or it ACTUALLY appears clear he is not a part of out long-term future. IF the time comes to trade him, Cheveldayoff (despite our criticisms) has done pretty well in trades for our top assets (see Kane, Trouba, Copp). Now is not that time, though. Right now, bring us a coach!!!!
