The Jets should give Geno Smith a fully guaranteed one year, $15 million contract extension. Convert the remainder of 2026 to the prorated minimum salary + a signing bonus. 2027 would be a $5 million base salary + $10 million option bonus. Add four void years to the contract.

Who I think the Jets coaching staff should be in 2027, if Aaron Glenn doesn't turn things around in 2026 Head Coach: Sean McDermott Offensive Coordinator: Brian Daboll QB Coach/Pass Game Coordinator: Ken Dorsey Offensive Line/Run Game Coordinator: Bobby Johnson Tight Ends Coach: Alfredo Roberts (Holdover) Wide Recievers Coach: Ricky Proehl Defensive Coordinator: Bobby Babich Defensive Line Coach: Eric Washington (Holdover) Linebackers Coach: Al Holcolm Defensive Backs Coach/Pass Game Coordinator: Steve Wilks Special Teams Coordinator: Chris Banjo (Holdover) Assistant Special Teams: ?

If the Jets trade Breece Hall just before the deadline, they would gain $10.26 million in cap space over the next two seasons minus the cap space for whoever they sign to replace his spot on the roster.

With the following moves, the Jets salary cap space remaining is $10,085,662 for the 2026-27 regular season. This puts their 2027 offseason budget at $84,128,735.

A hitter's job is to get on base. Stop with the bull crap that you don't bunt during a no-hitter. Any way to get the offense going should be acceptable.

Please stop using Mount Rushmore as a metaphor for the top four of something. That's not why Gutzon Borglum chose Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Roosevelt for the monument. Washington represents the start of the nation. Jefferson represents expansion. Lincoln represents preservation, and Roosevelt represents the growth into a global superpower. He chose them because they represent four key stages in American history.

Tonight's the night...maybe...lol

The lone first time offensive-minded HC was Coslet, who averaged fewer than seven wins per season. Kotite and Gase were on their second jobs, and they combined for 13 wins in four seasons. There are three phases where a head coach can come from, and it doesn’t matter which one they pick from. That won’t determine how good he is.

The man who should be the next Jets HC, if Glenn is gone after the season

So, I did some bad math yesterday, when it comes to the very unlikely Garrett Wilson trade. Current total 2026-27 cap charges: $33,324,819 2026-27 dead cap charges depending on the week: Post-Week 9 trade: $32,787,410 Cap Savings: $537,409 Just before the deadline, after Week 10: $32,956,433 Cap Savings: $368,386

Adam Gase is the only head coach -- not in his first coaching stint -- since the NFL expanded to a 16-game schedule to have five fewer wins or more in the second year with the team than the first.

They'd still need to trade up to get a quarterback in this questionable class.

Let me explain how the dead cap works with a Garrett Wilson trade, again. Any Jets trade would result in the Jets being charged the following: 2026 $170,823 per week for each week up to when he's traded $2.75 million for his signing bonus proration $4 million for his option bonus proration $250k for his workout bonus 2027 3 years left at $2.75 million each for his signing bonus 4 years left at $4 million each for his 2026 option bonus They would save the remaining money from his base salary this year and eat $16.25 million next season, for a total net loss -- based on week traded -- of either $14,541,767, 14,712,591, or 14,883,414 in cap space combined. That's not infeasible.
