The Jets were flush with cap space that year, and former Jets GM Mike Maccagnan predictably botched spending it. That not only saddled Douglas with a slew of bad long term deals which the Jets are just now finally emerging from, it also set up the 2020 offseason as one with limited cap space. Douglas chose to spread it around on a series of modest deals, marrying the Jets to no one player. Douglas also inherited a roster full of players no good GM would want to make a major commitment to.
