Do you have any solid rumor that you can reference that the Jets were offering Frolik anything after Stafford signed?

IIRC the Jets still have an internal spending limit.

They just got rid of their 2 worst Contracts Bogosian and Kane and might be a bit more wary with handing out longer term deals to support players.

They are working on Ladd and Byfuglien getting extended as they are UFA after 2015-16. Trio of quality RFA's coming Trouba, Scheifele and Lowry that they may or may not consider part of their core going forward.
I think it's more of the fact that the Jets were probably only offering a 1-2 year deal to Frolik because they didn't want to give him term due to the fact that they have so many up and coming young prospects knocking on the door for a spot on the Jets' roster. They had every intention of signing him if it was short term.
