Randy Moss begs to differ. Unless you're referring to his personality traits, in which case your local glazier would like to encourage you to keep throwing the stones.
Players should be moderately opposed; it's a (small) disincentive for their current team to resign them.
HOW it goes down? That would depend on contract negotiations. That it can and would go down depends on whether the Jets make other moves freeing up space for him, and of course choose to do that and attempt to sign him. My main concern is I think the chance of Wilson coming on strong and deserving to start next season opposite Revis is between slim and none. The cb corps after Revis and Cro was thin already, so even if Wilson improves, who is the nickel? Not a fan of Coleman's, ftr. And I doubt the Jets go back with a high draft pick to address needs at the corners. They already are developing Wilson, with imo so far disappointing results. The best way to make sure they have a secondary worthy of a SB run next year is to either keep Cro or get another FA. So who would fit that need better than him who is available at a reasonable price? We already know Cro and he knows the system and has a year's experience in it. He's not been perfect but he played better than any other #2 cb I know of. He helped out returning punts. He stayed healthy all year. Who is available who would do better? If Wilson had shown more, it would be different. He hasn't. Imo a lot of the talk about letting Cro go is based on an assessment that others, such as Harris, need to be signed and the need to sign them is more than signing Cro. That is a legitimate discussion. But what is not legitimate is the idea that the Jets can field a decent secondary by letting Cro go and relying on the current roster. No way, baby. We'd see them right back in the situation they were in during the second half of last year's CHamp game. No thanks for a chance to have that opportunity.
I hope the fact that they already spent a high pick on Wilson doesn't deter them from drafting a corner with a high pick if that's still a really big need at draft time. We don't see Wilson enough to know if he's developing ok but (hypothetically) if he's not on track to be a good corner, you're not going to be able to resign Cro, you don't like the corners on the free agent market, well, Rex needs good corners so you can't be afraid to draft one.
Still sad he called your QB an asshole? Yeah I think he got him confused with his brother. What the fuck is the deal with that? Matt is the better, more successful QB but his brother has the hotter wife? What the fuck?
Yeah lol @ drafting a corner with our first round pick. Since we drafted Revis, we've used a 4th round pick (Dwight Lowery, 2008), a fifth round pick (Lito Sheppard, 2009), a first round pick (Wilson, 2010), a fourth round pick(Sheppard) and now a second round pick (Cromartie) on the cornerback position. For a team that hasn't had many draft picks since then, that's an awful lot of picks on one position. I don't think we'll be drafting a corner until the fifth round at the earliest this year.
Millen's problem wasn't drafting receivers every year, it was drafting shitty receivers every year. If you blow your first round pick every year you probably will suck. That doesn't change the fact that if you have a problem with your team you should try to fix it with the draft even if it makes you look stupid because it shows that you blew a pick/free agent pick-up in the past.
Yea he kept drafting shitty receivers, then he finally drafted a great one and went 0-16. We need to young get talent in the front 7 on defense, immediately.
shouldn't cromartie be calling out the NFL and not his OWN UNION? My family's been union men for as long as I remember. The players should not capitulate to the NFL demand this time. Cromartie needs to understand which side he's on.
