New York Jets: Should The Jets offer Joe Tippmann an extension?

New York Jets front office faces a strategic question as to whether to extend Joe Tippman now or wait. Tippman, a former second-round pick, is entering the fourth year of his rookie deal and has been a durable interior offensive lineman, playing 17 games in back-to-back seasons and starting 48 of 51 games since entering the league. He has experience at center and guard, though his pass blocking has been uneven. At 25 years old in March, Tippman sits in a position that typically develops later and ages well, suggesting a potential argument for securing him before market value rises. Projections note continued development could push him into the above-average to good range with more continuity around him.
