JetNation Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 By Glenn Naughton With the NFL trade deadline just hours away, nj.com is reporting that the New York Jets are engaged in talks with the Dallas Cowboys about a deal that would included Jets defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson. Richarson, one of the NFL’s most dynamic young defensive players, has been a chess piece for Todd Bowles and the Jets in 2016, significantly limiting his production. Richardson has been used as a defensive end, outside linebacker with a bit of inside linebacker sprinkled in. #Jets trying to trade Sheldon Richardson to Cowboys? https://t.co/SkGzX5v9KL — Connor Hughes (@Connor_J_Hughes) November 1, 2016 Winner of the NFL’s defensive rookie of the year award just a few seasons ago, it appears the Jets view Richardson as expendable with fellow-lineman Muhammad Wilkerson inked to a long-term deal and second-year lineman Leonard Williams in the fold. Richardson’s history of off-field issues probably aren’t helping him much in the eyes of the Jets at this point either. Dallas, armed with one of the best young offenses in the NFL, could use a playmaker on the defensive line, and Richardson would give them exactly that. Click here to read the full story...

BigRy56 Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 "It is what it is - I'm on paper here until Tuesday." -Sheldon Richardson I believe he is 110% about the money and gives zero percent about the Jets or the team. These are not the kinds of guys that you want on your team long term. I would ship him out for a 2nd round pick or a conditional 3rd if he tops X number of plays or sacks.

I never saw him as a 'team' guy. I would take the deal you outlined. More draft picks, more draft picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not necessarily his actions as much as it is his words. I remember back during a pre-season game, Mo's contract was brought up and he goes and says something like "I can't wait to get mine" .... Now I get it, I'd wanna get as much money as possible too but for him to be so outspokenly driven by it shows what he's about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonJet Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Such a talented player and may be the Jets best player on defense too, a shame the coach doesn't know it. Would love to see him end up in Dallas, they have a good shot of going all the way this season. If you leave, good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack48 Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I have never had the impression tht he was not a team guy. I think he has impulse control problems------and a big mouth. An excellent candidate for an eventual lifetime ban Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets players should go back to the days when $11K per year was a very good salary for star players on this team (xcept for Namath), and they all had second jobs, and ran to the bank on payday in their uniforms to make sure the check did not bounce.
