What are the implications of the Jets trading Jermaine Johnson?
Jermaine Johnson gets reunited with Robert Sala. Yeah, interesting because let's not forget that Jermaine Johnson, along with Sauce Gardner and Garrett Wilson, all three had their fifth-year options picked up before last season. We remember that Garrett got an extension, Wilson got an extension, and Sauce Gardner got an extension. Sauce was subsequently traded to the Indianapolis Colts, but Jermaine Johnson was the question mark. What are they doing contract-wise? So it's interesting. It actually makes sense. that Robert Sala, who drafted him with the New York Jets, traded back for him. Expect him to get an extension now that he's been traded and going to the Tennessee Titans. Yes.
What are the latest Jets rumors and their potential impact?
But it's an interesting move for the Jets because it's, I don't know, Tavondre Sweat is not replacing Quinnen Williams, but, because he's not nearly as good yet, but he is young.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And a different kind of player. Different kind of player, but he's also a massive body. He's 370 or something like that. And so you can tell that the Jets and Darren Muji, we talked about yesterday, is starting to reshape this Jet defense already. So it feels like they're going defense in the draft. Yeah. My initial instinct is, I think I love this from the Jets' perspective, the more I look into it.
What is Aaron Glenn's 'superpower' according to the discussion?
I think it's great. You needed beef in the middle to stop the run.
Jermaine Johnson, if you were unsure of what his value was, and he wasn't part of this regime, Eugene Glenn, now you've got to figure with that second pick, like we talked about throughout the week, right? I mean, we called it, quote, the Giants model with Abdul Carter and the quarterback. Right. They are going to get their pick of the best, well, the best player, but the best defensive player on the board. And I can't help but wonder if that means Reuben Bain is going to be the pick at number two overall.
Feels like it. To go bookend him with Will McDonald.
Now you have some beef in the middle with Sweat. Now you really start building something. I think it made sense. Also, Connor Hughes reports that last year at the deadline, Robert Sala tried to get Jermaine Johnson over to San Francisco. Did he?
So he's been hot to try for him for a minute.
They were offering him a third-round pick. San Francisco did, but the Jets wanted a two. So instead, the Jets swing this to beef up the interior. So Devontre Sweat going to go try to stop the run. The Jets probably take... You know, if it's not Reuben Bain, insert whoever that pass rusher is.
How did Aaron Glenn's players rate him and why?
They clearly have a vision and a plan to build up this defense. Look, they have to... At a minimum, Tiki, after everything we talked about with the Wink Martindale, Aaron Glenn's calling plays as his superpower, if Aaron Glenn's going to go down with calling plays as his superpower on defense, that defense better be the best that Aaron Glenn can envision it being.
I think you're right. And I think that's the way to do it. I think that they're trying to give Aaron Glenn all the pieces that he needs in order to execute at a high level consistently. And so, to Andre Sweat, who, again, most people won't know because even if you're watching the Tennessee Titans, you're not fully seeing his impact. But he's a load to move in the middle of a defense. You have a guy that's 370. It's just, you can feel how he can impact this team. You go get some Ed Rogers in this draft. You shore up the second, third levels as the draft goes on. And maybe the Jets can get back to where the expectation was a couple of years ago.
And I want to give Darren Muji a lot of credit here because you think about the return they got on Quinn and Williams.
This is a straight-up swap, by the way.
And it's a straight-up swap. Player for player.
What are the Jets' immediate needs at the quarterback position?
This is from what I am reading here. Player for player deal unless something else matriculates. Now, it may because, remember, the trade can't be processed until the start of the new league year next week. So you could get some kind of picks for it, maybe.
Right.
Maybe, but the beef of this trade, for lack of a better term, is the nose tackle coming over for Jermaine Johnson.
