Craig Carton

I'm going to defend the Jets here for a second and keep this in mind.

And this goes for Derek Carr.

This goes for Kirk Cousins or any other veteran out there.

We know that Kyler Murray is probably going to be available.

We know Malik Wills is going to get signed somewhere.

There's only 32 starting jobs.

Are already filled.

So if you're Kirk Cousins, you're going, I don't know if I want to be a Jet.

Well, you tell me where's your starting job other than that.

Right.

Because the carousel could spin.

Derek Carr, same deal with that.

I want to win a Super Bowl.

And you are left without a seat.

So, look, that's the way it is.

And as far as any of these guys go, and you bring up Mestemaker, and I talked about Ty Simpson earlier in the week.

I'm probably coming at this from a Giants bias because I just lived this last year with the Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston.

It is important to note that free agency, of course, comes before the draft, and you have no idea the way a draft board is going to fall.

If they sign Kirk Cousins, he is still not a guy that's going to prevent you.

If the draft happens to fall your way and you go, you know what, we did.
