Yes, but most of their core is signed through the next 4-5 years. So, I think you can expect the Jets to keep their players together over that timeframe. Furthermore, they do seem to have some good prospects who shouldn't be making huge money at that point.
So... long story short, I think we'll be in a better spot to judge the Jets in 4-5 years. Give them a chance... They inherited a poorly managed team from Atlanta. Since then they've made some good drafts, have managed to retain their key players as they hit free agency, and the building is sold out for the foreseeable future.
It's a bit silly to write them off just because the re-sale market for tickets has softened a bit.
