    I wouldn't be mad at taking a flyer on Adam Thielen if we don't have to give up a lot.

    We won’t have to worry about Cooper when we play the Browns at least.

    I wonder if Browns would totally implode and they trade Myles Garrett?

    I believe thie Adams trade may open up the possibility that Mike Williams gets traded to Pittsburgh. Mike Williams made a visit to Pittsburgh before signing with the Jets.

    I know that Rodgers said Williams ran the wrong route, but when you look at the ball "wobbling' in the Air, you can't help but think Rodgers under threw him.

    It all goes back to having 3-4 players consuming
    30 to 40% of your cap space. Doesn't leave enough money
    to build a competent roster.

    Look for Stephanskie to be gone at end of year.

    He'll get the blame, but only because they can't fire the owner.

    I never could understand that deal for Watson.
    It's pretty tough to imagine leaning back in your GM chair and thinking 'this is the solution.'

    I hope Wilson plays well, that might better our chances to pickup one of these guys

    Williams would be a big improvement over Van Jefferson as our #2 WR. Jefferson has terrible hands, is a poor route runner and can't block worth a damn.

    I don't understand the point of bringing up a starting receiver on a playoff contender like Allen. The Bears are 4-2 and looking better each week. Allen isn't going anywhere.

    Williams is done. It would be stupid for the Steelers to bail the Jets out of a bad contract.

    Metcalf is probably fantasy land. Someone like Kirk or Lockett would make more sense, but I imagine Khan is going to sit on his hands and watch the Steelers waste time with Van Jefferson in the lineup.

    Well, it is a shot in the dark, but he is an older player on a young and up and coming team. It might actually be smart of the Bears to make a move for the future.

    To get anyone worth their salt at this point it is going to take somethin miraculous and unexpected.

    There are a lot of guys out there that are easy to get, but probably won’t move the needle for this team.

    CB is a big need still because Donte Jackson is a free agent after the season, less than 7 million for your starting RB is nothing.

    Williams is washed I'm glad they didn't sign him in free agency.

    He seemed to do well against the Steelers in the past, the Steelers really need to sweep the Browns no excuses.

    The Bears are contenders right now. it is silly fantasy land to think they will trade away a key component of their offense. Allen doesn't just provide value in helping the team win this season. He provides value in helping Caleb Williams develop by surrounding him with weapons.

    If Denver falls further out of the playoff race in the next few weeks, Khan needs to try and get Courtland Sutton from them.

    Maybe I am reading this wrong, but Williams is on a 1 year $1.2 million salary with the rest in bonus money that would stay with the Jets. I am guessing that is the vet meeting minimum.

    One comment to a reporter about what Rodgers said could make him a free agent tomorrow. 'I was running the correct route, Aaron just can't throw the deep ball anymore "

    I guess the Steelers never had a chance at Adams, he was only interested in going to the Jets :frustrated:

    Possibly….DJ Moore is the #1 receiver there though.

    Keenan is probably the 4th target in that offense.

    And what are they contenders of? A rookie QB has never won a Superbowl.

    He has been injured and he's in his mid-thirties, they should be able to do better.
