Jeez, man. I made a joke about you that I actually thought you would laugh at. You have to laugh at yourself sometimes or you won't enjoy life.
Holy shit this is an obnoxious thread. Can we create a "complain about Jet's management thread" so I don't have to comb through all this bullshit when looking for any info or updates on Joe McKnight?
This thread was originally made to complain about McKnight. Why would you think this would be a thread devoted to updates about him?
:lol: Come on cakes. You couldn't tell I was joking? Why would I make fun of you for knowing history when that is one of my strengths as well?(though I don't go back as far as you do).
Because that's basically what it is at this point. Leon for a draft pick was a good move because we weren't going to resign him after this year, and we didn't think he would be as good a runningback as the other guys around (Greene and LT). If we could get a decent pick for him, we would do it. Remember, we got Santonio for a 5th.
LEON COULD HAVE HELPED US WIN MORE GAMES THIS YEAR THAN SANTONIO. Leon YPC : 2.3 Santonio YPC : 0 Leon is better than Santonio /junc
I actually went back in my post history. I couldn't find anything that suggest I hated Brad Smith at any point in time.
From Deadspin: I know we keep harping on this. But Hub fans keep doing stuff like running out and buying a guy's jersey just because he's "scrappy." No, really; someone said that. The manager at the Patriots pro shop actually said scrappy, a term we thought was reserved for stereotyped fictional characters making fun of Pats fans, and Peter King. Woodhead is one of those scrappy, hard-working players that appeals to New Englanders," said Periello. "People love this guy. His T-shirts and jerseys are popular with kids, men and women, blue-collar and white-collar customers." Why, at many New England outlets, the Woodhead jersey is even outselling those perennial best-sellers: white quarterback Tom Brady and white wide receiver Wes Welker. As SportsGrid points out, why not surprising rookie TE Aaron Hernandez, a player who's actually from New England? That last name a little too ethnic? I guess that's what ended the love-in for Julian Edelman. Whatever. Woodhead's scrappy. Whatever sells second-string running back jerseys to attractive (for Boston) girls like the one in the Herald article.

who hated Brad Smith??? Thats BS. Guy is a really nice player who plays hard and who can do alot of things well. Why would anybody hate on Brad Smith?
A lot of people were complaining about him a year or two ago, before we brought in Edwards and Holmes, that he wasn't a good enough WR to be in the spot he was in.
Before we got Edwards last year Smith was our #2 or #3 WR and a lot of people didn't think he was worthy of that. As a pure WR he may not be but anyone who just looked at him as such really isn't seeing the big picture. Same as when they looked at just Leon's YPC or whatever. We could have used one of Leon's 1 carry, 43 yards, TD games the other day, we might have won.
