Dam what is Woody paying him with?Talcum powder and lotion? Where is Mac finding money for all these under the radar signings??
I have to admit that I like our signings so far. We aren't exactly getting younger but the replacements we are getting our solid. And we are adding depth. If we can resign Fitz and gave a good draft then I won't complain.
I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Carter starts over Henderson. The Jets needed both starter and backup positions, so this makes sense.
Man I'm loving these FA signings this year with Jenkins, McLendon, Henderson and Carter. They're not flashy but they're very good depth picks. Carter is a very athletic LB who should be able to come in and contribute. A signing like this might make it more feasible to take a chance on Jaylon Smith and his redshirt season.
I think we can forget about signing Fitzpatrick at this point. Close that thread cause considering how in the red we are now, I don't know if we have enough fat to cut. We are already ~$6.5m over the cap and signing Fitz will put us another $10m or so further in debt. Plus we need money for our draft picks. Would getting rid of Wilkerson and Ferguson even cover all that?
Solid signing in that we have 3 NFL middle linebackers on the roster. I could see some sort of a rotation or at least Carter playing on a lot of 3rd downs. I think for now it somewhat removes the idea of taking an ILB in the first round unless Jack miraculously falls. I think we are pretty much locked in to an OLB/OT I'm just hoping we trade down if we get one of those positions since I don't think the top guys are going to be there.
I love this signing. Even if Carter just plays on certain passing downs, he could help shut down TEs and RBs over the middle, which would be HUGE. I think our D will be even better this season than last, even with Snacks and possibly Mo gone.
LMAO at page 1 of this thread ..... all the abuse the poor OP took for "making up" a ridiculous rumor, getting called "the troll of all trolls", threatening to block him from starting threads, etc etc etc, and now all those goons are the ones looking silly, having to eat crow ...... hahahahahahaha! (reminds me of the abuse I have to take in that thread I started in the other forum)
...a little hasty to form an opinion and close up the ol' mind are we? I made the grammatical adjustment moments after you jumped to your conclusion. (or trying to trip me up on a grammar technicality when it was clear what I meant, a typical strategy resorted to by those unable to compete in a debate...smh) ....but I understand you're embarrassed by what transpired on page 1 of this thread, so I should stop picking on you. sorry. (don't forget to attack me for not capitalizing the "S" in sorry, that'll help you "win" the debate ... lol)
Those who want to deny the truth (in any debate btw) can always find lots of clever ways to talk around it. Like Paul Simon sang "...the man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest." I'm fully aware that you will try to label this as "irony" as well, I know exactly what you're thinking because it's the same old lines/cliches that are always resorted to by those who want to deny the facts and live in their own world ..... .....but let's get back to football shall we? ,,,,,what do you think about the Bruce Carter signing? (after all being Jets fans is something we have in common)
