Good point ... maybe he figures he'll get numbers with Luck passing to him and then cash in next year. And fyi ... i dont think Nicks is on the decline. Hes only 26-27 i think and last year had a dislocated finger which hindered him all year and even worse had eli manning passing to him lol. Still almost put up a G. Time will tell on this one ....
No but we could have probably given Nicks at a 5 year 25 million deal. Nicks said he wanted a long term deal, if Nicks does prove to be great then it will be a huge mark against Idzik because like the previous poster said, he was there for the taking and we didnt take him.
I hear u ... but theres still 30m left! You should EASILY be able to get DRC AND Edelman plus pay all the rooks, bring Pace back, get a backup QB, resign Colon or another guard. And give a bonus to mo wilk. what are they going to do with all this money? Purchase PSLs?
you have no idea if he was there for the taking, he hasn't been good enough to make a 5 year deal a good bet and killing a guy for a move he didn't make that may or may not have been realistic is just insane bro. seriously insane
Just because we aren't linked to a player as Edleman doesn't mean we aren't interested. Idzik doesn't let things leak out like Tanny did
I didnt realize DRC is only 27, I felt like he was much older only because he was a big part of that Cardinals team in 2008 which feels like ages ago now.
Thanks u crash ... i totally agree. You made my point better than I did. Thanks. And even Jets fans and the beat writers kind of dismissed Nicks. I would not AT ALL be shocked if he played at a pro bowl level and yes it wou,d be a huge indictment on Idzik. He was there for the taking in our own backyard. Even Manish wrote today that Nicks was the best WR in this years class. I dont know how ppl forgot just how good he is. Victor Cruz carried his gym bag. Still does.
Hakeem is the same age as Decker, people act like Hakeem cant have a big year at the age of 28, hes not old yet.
Yeah and the man had 900 yards last season, that isnt "bad", people have made it him out to be like he is completely done. I mean come on, he is 27, has played at an extremely high level, has been the #1 guy, has come up with big time plays in big spots, whats not to like?
injuries and attitude. the market has spoken. but go ahead and kill idzic for not offering 4 more years than he was able to get
Decker would have gotten the same deal, no one other than Idzik would have signed Decker, thats why the Jets are getting laughed at right now for signing him.
Nicks signed with a team already and had 0 (zero) touchdowns last year. Giants fans were tired of him and his injuries. Let's move on.
