With their RT retiring I'm surprised Denver let him go and for only a 5th? But with Fergusons retirement the Jets needed somebody.

I know we have Grob but for a 5th round pick it's kinda silly not to do it. Two years ago he was the best tackle in the league.

He's an injury waiting to happen the guy just cannot stay healthy. With his cap hit I can't see a way this ends well for the Jets even with him signing a new deal.

I rarely if ever watch the Broncos play. Perhaps his play has declined recently? Hard to believe it only took a 5th...

Looking it up he's only played 18 games in the last three years. He makes Saffold look healthy.
Yes! this is why the move really surprises me! Now the Broncos, "Defending Champs!" not only have major QB issues but O-Line issues as well!!
I think that's it. Jets banking he stays healthy. If he does; good deal for them.

More than likely but they're rolling the dice on a LT and a QB. Not a recipe I'd like to follow for an offense, oh wait. Though I feel better about GRob than Clady.
Here are the details of His new contract. If he gets hurt Jets can walk away for as little as $3million.

The Broncos have indeed traded tackle Ryan Clady to the Jets. And Clady has traded in his Denver contract for a new deal in New York.
Per a source with knowledge of the contract, Clady will make $6 million in 2016. Of that amount, $3 million is guaranteed. Another $1.5 million is available in incentives based on playing time and postseason honors.
The Jets hold an option for 2017 at $10 million. The amount of the 2017 salary can increase to $13 million based on 2016 playing time. There’s also a bonus of $2.5 million due in February 2017, forcing the Jets to make a quick decision on whether they’ll keep Clady for the second year.
Clady was due to make $19.5 million over the next two years in Denver, with no guaranteed money. He now has a maximum value of $20.5 million, $3 million of which is guaranteed.
In contrast, new Broncos left tackle Russell Okung, who was viewed as the top left tackle in free agency this year, has no guarantees on a deal that pays out at most $5 million for one year with a team-held option for the next four.
