UnknownJetFan Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Jets | Antonio Cromartie would like to return Sun, 16 Mar 2014 16:23:15 -0700 Free-agent CB Antonio Cromartie (Jets) would like to re-sign with the New York Jets. - See more at: http://www.kffl.com/hotw/nfl#sthash.WFSmfRkE.dpuf Obviously he didn't get a contract from Arizona. We know him and he knows us and wants to come back as he said previously, so hopefully we give him like a 3yr 12M or so contract to take the job. As log as his hip is fine he is only 29. The other Cromartie may want to much to sign and anyone else out there left is no better than Antonio. Thoughts?. BTW, I just joined up and registered here after many years of reading all your great and interesting posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsis Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 So? He can take vet minimum and compete for a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsJETStime Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 So? He can take vet minimum and compete for a job. No Cro was one of the best CBs in the league 2 years ago you must respect that ... I think a contract around 4-6 million per year would be fair... I want a 3-5 year contract with the ability to cut him without much penalty not a 2-year contract that's actually a 1 year since he could be cut like what Revis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnknownJetFan Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 Actually Arsis, that's true, but perhaps at least throw him what we just threw Pace 2 yrs 5M. I suppose a lot of teams would give him the vet minimum, but maybe not. Don't see that many teams knocking down his door at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsis Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 No Cro was one of the best CBs in the league 2 years ago you must respect that ... I think a contract around 4-7 million 7 million for an old guy with a bum hip. Lmao. You're high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I know where Cro graded out, but I like to believe that he will play significantly better than he did last year. Maybe not when in his prime prime, but I bet the speed and athleticism are still there. Cro > anyone else on our roster. Bring the guy back, and let him go out on his sword returning kicks.

F.Chowds Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 was watching the Dolfag game today (week 17). Hartline was ******* owning him. We are lucky he got hurt we might of lost that game. I dont know how many of you have read Collision Low Crossers. but if you have, you know how big of POS he is.POISON I don't want him in the DB room.

Jets Voice of Reason Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 It's really not smart to pay somebody based on what they did two years ago. I really appreciated what Cro did here, and he seems to have liked being a Jet, but the Jets know his medicals better than anyone right now so if they pass I'm fine with it. Show-me deal or bust in my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsis Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I changed it to 6 right after it posted lol Over two years where you can cut him after the first if he sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAD_Brooklyn Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 If a deal for Rodgers-Cro doesn't come through then I wouldn't mind giving him 2 years - $9 mil deal with a $1 mil roster bonus for next season. It is almost laughable to even consider playing for the minimum. I'm pretty sure we would be 1 of many teams to be in the market if that was the case.

Jetknowledge Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Even if we do sign DRC, I want A.C back. He was a underrated return man. And I like our new st coach but we have no return man. Unless we draft 1. Or cribs is still on contract, not sure what's left in his tank thoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that they nerfed the crap out of kickoff returns so the value of the position is further diminished. Even if you were bringing in someone exclusively for returns you could probably bring in Devin Hester for fairly cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we tried him on punt returns, if I am not mistaken, like everyone else that year, the ball was on the turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we tried him on punt returns, if I am not mistaken, like everyone else that year, the ball was on the turf. He looked awkward on punt returns -- he's fast but not so nimble. Give him a running start on KO returns and it is a different story with his straight line speed. Like others have said KO returns are less critical these days.

UnknownJetFan Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 Joewilly12, Yes, I know but going forward means hopefully in the near future 1-3 yrs, but not necessarily next year although it would be nice. Any chance for it next year would require a home run with the 12 draft picks we have coming (With comp picks), and more strategic FA signings between now and training camp. A solid trade or 2 may also be extremely helpful like the the Ivory deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewilly12 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Antonio Cromartie came here with a lot of baggage remember the Jets had to loan him child support money the time he spent here he played his ass off even while injured and he did whatever Rex asked of him kick returner,WR I don't remember him causing any trouble on or off the field.
