Oh please oh please oh please.


This is incredible.

(Chandler)'s a nice piece as long as he's the 7th most important player on your roster....I think they're going to be disappointed when they see he's just a pumped-up Drew Gooden.

Thoughts:

1. HELL YES.
2. Why not already?
3. Is it possible to sign him for multiple years on the cheap? If so, I would do so. If not, OK anyway...
4. If the Jets had him on a multi-year contract, it might change the entire complexion of this offense heading into the off-season. You would then have a 1/2/3/4 consisting of Holmes, Edwards, Kerley and Hill heading into 2013-2014, which isn't bad at all. If you spent your 1st round pick on RB, or impact TE (like Gronk/Hernandez/Graham if one is available) and maybe a 2nd on RT or LG then the offense has completely changed.
5. As much as I hate Holmes, it is obvious how much we're hurting without him. This situation is fixable with Holmes back next year, just add 2 or 3 talented pieces around him. We know the defense will be very good as long as the offense is scoring a few more points and holding onto the ball just a little longer.
6. "According to a source" = meaningless.

So a WR who couldn't manage to keep a roster spot on the Dolphins, the dolphins bro, is suddenly going to change the complexity of our entire offense??

I wouldn't mind Braylon, I think he really connects with Sanchez, at least from what I've seen with my two eyes.

You're right, that's a good point. I'm probably completely wrong about this, I'm just willing to give it a chance.

I just think about it like this:

-You can tell that Braylon gets along well with Mark.
-He's one of very, very few players that has actually made Mark look GOOD at some point in his career.
-He strikes me as the kind of guy that plays harder when he's in the right situation, and this seems like it's the right situation for him.
-No one denies the innate talent.

Finally, by far the most important point of all:

-Any ball thrown to Braylon Edwards is one less ball thrown to Chaz Schilens, Mardy Giliard or... who the hell knows who.

Just busting your balls. I personally preferred Braylon to Holmes when that whole argument was going on, not because I think Bray is a superior talent, but because he fits Mark better. In order for Holmes' skillset to be best utilized, he needs a quarterback with precision accuracy to hit him in stride and take advantage of his route running and YAC ability...all of that is an anathema to mark. Braylon on the other hand has speed, good leaping ability and body control and can reel in some of those errant passes that plague mark so much. I personally have no issue at all with the signing, provided he's healthy.

The Jets are reportedly interested in recently waived wide receiver Braylon Edwards.

The receiving corps, stretched for talent since Santonio Holmes went down with a Lisfranc injury early in the year, is even thinner now. Jeremy Kerley has had nagging injuries, although seems to be healthy for the moment. Chaz Schilens is still healthy. That’s about it. Clyde Gates is still recovering from a concussion, and against Jacksonville this past Sunday, rookie Stephen Hill badly sprained his knee and is out indefinitely.

The Seahawks released Edwards the day after he made controversial remarks on Twitter about…you guessed it…the Jets and embattled quarterback Mark Sanchez. Edwards was supportive of Sanchez and critical of Jets coaching and management. Edwards tried to walk back his remarks, saying they were an emotional outburst in support of his friend and he has no ill will toward anyone in the Jets organization.

Edwards has battled a knee injury for most of the two seasons he’s been away from New York, limiting his playing time and production. Still, with the way the Jets have been losing receivers, they might be willing to take a gamble on him, even with his injuries and no matter what he tweeted.

Jets fans, particularly on Twitter (and including me), have been supportive of a Jets/Edwards reunion. They’ve embraced the idea of his return and have been nostalgic and about him, a guy who was part of the 2009 and 2010 Jets teams that made playoff runs. Many fans believe it was Edwards the Jets should have signed long term instead of Holmes. He was a receiver who Sanchez had some chemistry with (a rare occurrence for anyone and Sanchez these days). And Edwards is still a good fit for the Jets: a veteran receiver, supportive of Sanchez, who a guy like Stephen Hill could learn from. It’s risky, but could be rewarding.

On Sunday, Edwards was on Twitter again, mentioning that there were some great games going on and that he’d love to be helping some team win games.

Could that team be the Jets? “Sources” say it’s a possibility. Take it with a grain of salt, but this could be an easy fix to a mistake that shouldn’t have been made in the first place.
