Jets Tender Robby Anderson
The Jets announced that they have applied the second-round tender to wide receiver Robby Anderson. The one-year tender will pay Anderson $3.095MM for the upcoming season. 
As a restricted free agent, Anderson can negotiate with any club through April 19. If he signs an offer sheet with a new club, the Jets could match the offer to keep him. If the Jets do not match such an offer, they will receive a second-round draft choice. While Anderson has talent, it seems unlikely that a team will offer him substantial money and forfeit a valuable second-round pick in order to add him.
Anderson, 26 in May, made some noise in 2017 with 63 catches for 941 yards and seven touchdowns. He had a quieter year in 2018, even as his off-the-field antics made noise in the New York tabloids. He finished out last season with a 50/752/6 stat line across 14 games. With upwards of $100MM in cap room – and even more flexibility remaining – the Jets can easily afford to keep Anderson in the fold at a ~$3MM rate.
In addition to Anderson, the Jets have also retained all nine of their exclusive-rights free agents:
- QB Davis Webb
- WR Deontay Burnett
- RB De’Angelo Henderson
- OL Ben Braden
- DL Bronson Kaufusi
- LB Frankie Luvu
- LB Anthony Wint
- CB Jeremy Clark
- S Doug Middleton
