You had to have had this one cocked in the chamber since yesterday.
(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.

Jets reunite with wide receiver Braylon Edwards
BY Manish Mehta
Desperation prompted the Jets to reunite with a familiar and outspoken player from their past.
One week after Braylon Edwards called the team’s braintrust “idiots” in a Twitter rant, the free agent wideout landed back in green-and-white.
The Jets were awarded Edwards off waivers from the Seahawks on Tuesday in an effort to bolster an injury-ravaged wide receiving corps.
It was an unusual, but necessary move for a team ravaged by injuries to their wide receiver corps. Rookie Stephen Hill’s knee sprain suffered in last week’s win in Jacksonville paved the way for Edwards, who ripped the organization seven days earlier.
Edwards, 29, made critical comments about the team’s treatment of Mark Sanchez on his official Twitter page on Dec. 4: “Don’t blame Sanchez. I played there. Blame the idiots calling shots. Mark is a beast and will (prove) it when given a proper chance,” Edwards tweeted.
He backed off those remarks later that day with another tweet that read, “I would like to apologize to the Jets family and my fans for my emotional outburst. Mark is a friend and former teammate, who I wholeheartedly support. Nonetheless, I have disrespected and insulted an administration that I have the utmost respect for.”
Rex Ryan has always had an affinity for Edwards, who played a pivotal role in the Jets’ run to back-to-back AFC Championship Games in 2009 and 2010. “You guys know what I’ve always said about Braylon in the past, so you know how I feel about him,” Ryan said Monday about the possibility of bringing Edwards back. “But right now, I think we’ll just focus on the guys we have.”
The Jets, who lost top offensive weapon Santonio Holmes to a season-ending foot injury in Week 4, were down to only two healthy receivers with experience (Jeremy Kerley and Chaz Schilens). Journeyman Mardy Gilyard, rookie Jordan White and Clyde Gates, who missed the past few weeks with a concussion, were the only other receivers on the active roster.
Edwards had 88 receptions for 1,445 yards and 11 touchdowns in 28 regular-season games with the Jets, including a team-high 904 yards in 2010. The Jets chose to sign Holmes to a long-term deal after the 2010 season and let Edwards walk in free agency.
Edwards, who has had knee problems, has caught only 23 passes with one touchdown since he left the Jets. He struggled with the 49ers in 2011 (15 receptions, 181 yards in nine games) before he was released late in the season.
Edwards had just eight catches for 74 yards with one touchdown in 10 games with the Seahawks this season before he was waived/injured. He was placed on the team’s injured reserve list last week before he was taken off it on Monday. The Jets put in a waiver claim.
Edwards had a good on-field rapport with Sanchez, but it’s unrealistic to expect him to be a panacea for the Jets’ struggles through the air this season.
“He's a great guy, a great player,” defensive lineman Mike DeVito told WFAN on Tuesday before Edwards passed through waivers. “I would love to have him back."
NOTE: RB Kahlil Bell was released, according to a source…. CB Aaron Berry’s hamstring injury is expected to sideline him for 2-3 weeks, which would effectively end his season, according to a source.
