Now, Chevy is still at fault for letting it get to this. Everyone knew for years that Trouba wanted to play in the States only... and he waited it out and boxed himself in. No excuse there. On the other hand, Trouba wanting to play in the New York area is understandable. I think the Jets should have made him sit out and try and extract a better trade.

So how would that work? If Trouble sits out the entire year as an RFA would be automatically become a UFA July 1st because of his age? Honestly have no idea.
Either way the Jets should've been ahead of this situation last summer at the latest.
