CrazyCarl40 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 One year, 4 million according to Shefty. Meh. Seems overpaid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Nice!!! Good signing as long as they didn't overpay for him. Even if they did, ah well. They needed him imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 One year, 4 million according to Shefty. Meh. Seems overpaid. No way. I was going to say 3-4M, anything over 4 would have been overpaying. I solid deal, can't complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsFan220 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter LaRon Landry reached agreement with the Jets on a one-year, $4 million deal.

dbatesman Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 so who is going to cover tight ends? Pretty much. Atogwe had better still be in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nj meadowlands Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Naturally, many of you sissy Mary's will cry about this. But I am pretty pleased with this signing.

Low risk move, and it solves half of our "roster full of sh*tty safeties" problem. For what we are paying him I think its a good move, but we still need a safety who is good in coverage. Landry is huge, looks like a LB, and can come up and stop the run, where a guy like Otogwe and Nelson are better in coverage, something our Safeties lacked the last few seasons.

Bleedin Green Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 No way. I was going to say 3-4M, anything over 4 would have been overpaying. I solid deal, can't complain. Agreed. Would have been nice to get him for a little less, but the guy was never going to sign for the vet minimum. Given that it's a one year deal there's really next to no risk for the Jets here. I have to imagine they felt comfortable with his health situation, and considering the Jets current safety situation it is, health permitting, a massive upgrade. It will also be interesting to see the structure, as depending on how much is up front/guaranteed vs incentive based it might be better than it sounds.

The same reason many of the guys here are complaining about Landry: injuries. FWIW, I still wouldn't be surprised to see us target safety in the first or second round, as Landry will be gone for bigger money next year if he performs well and stays healthy and we still need a FS.

HessStation Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 By the standards of what we are paying for Cro this seems like a dollar store bargain! P.S: The desperation shows! 4M for 1 year sounds about right. The Polamalu's and Reed's are around 6.5-8. The ancient Brian Dawkins around 6M. Honestly they needed to sign him. If they slightly overpaid by $300,000 does it really matter. Pending the achilles he still has potential to become a star in this D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
