Sauce to the Colts

Still, that draft is looking insane both for high end talent and depth

and if Sauce is continuing his decline that could be huge for the Jets to get out of that contract long term too.

cant really pin a winner or loser until the die is cast on those picks and what Indy does.

I for one think that’s a pretty bad deal for Indianapolis.

Good DEs are worth two first round picks

AD mitchell is nice in that he could be something good, dude has shown he has the talent

but my god, he needs to keep his mental in check, he cost the colts the rams game and that has put him in the dog house.

Jets have no WR’s adding mitchell is nice and if he does develop could be a nice robin to wilsons batman

Will Macdonald or Jermaine Johnson come on down.

Great trade for Colts

Elite 25 year old CB All pro and your biggest position of need

I get it, people that love draft picks will never be happy giving away 2 1st round beans

But it’s a push for the :trophy: with elite player

My dynasty team is 1-8 (I took over a REALLY bad team in a long league). You can bet my ass, I’m spending some FAAB on AD just in case lmfao

It’s a completely unexpected outcome for the Jets’ superstar cornerback. While he hasn’t been as good as he once was, allowing a career-high 98.1 passer rating, he was still a huge part of the Jets’ defense.

Sauce has not been great last season and this season. I’m not sure two first round picks were worth it. Even though they’be played like the best team in the NFL, they have a lot of holes.

I’d add elite left tackles to the list. But it ends there for me. If you are giving up that much you’d better be getting a good QB, someone who keeps your QB upright, or someone who will knock down the other team’s QB.

Just a personal thing, but I don’t get this perspective. The Colts are clearly going to be drafting at the end of Round 1 next Spring. And teams regularly trade up. Heck we traded #29 and #73 overall picks for Arnold. If a team does that in April we all just say ā€œcoolā€ but if a team trades #29 and #24 in November the storyline is ā€œthey’re mortgaging their futureā€ and ā€œthey’re going all in!ā€ I certainly don’t feel we ā€œmortgaged the futureā€ with Terrion Arnold anymore than the Colts are doing with Sauce.

And you are right beans are overvalued right now

Under valued later

The Rams (and others) have thoroughly disproven ā€œmortgaging the futureā€. To me, it’s a silly thing that fans say that isn’t based in reality.

In April we toss around mid round picks for guys like Broderic Martin without batting an eye, but trade one of those picks in November and the sky is falling. It’s kinda wild.

Pat Surtain maybe. It might be a situation were the Colts simply made an offer they couldn’t refuse. If the Jets traded Sauce then i expect them to clean house even more.

Yea I mean the Jets need a franchise QB, and until they get that, everything should be about acquiring that. You aren’t doing shit without it.

People falling in love with the name and not the player that he is right now. Could he flip a switch now that he’s on a winner? Sure. But, he has been far, far from an ā€œelite, lock down cornerā€ the last two years. And to justify two firsts(too much imo), he can’t be anything short of Patrick Surtain Jr.-lite, which he has not been.

Bad deal for Indy and I definitely don’t think DJ is a QB that’s going to win the big one for them. Ballard and Co. were definitely on thin ice and pushing all their chips forward though.

Wonder if we see Garret Wilson traded next or Breece Hall?
