sirlancemehlot Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Mr. Tannebaum has left the building. Pretty sure Mr. Idzik doesn't take his cues from JN. But we can get a malcontent WR one bust away from the state penitentiary for 12 games and all it will cost is a fifth round draft pick. Plus, he's on his last year so we blow the pick and have nothing to show for it next season except a hole in our draft board...which is cool. I don't see the downside.

How many draft picks are busts anyway? The risk is worth the reward if he returns to form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sourceworx Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Change of scenery does a lot of players good. A change in scenery won't do Kenny Britt any good. A change in careers will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeKlecko Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Kenny Britt tweeted Tuesday he believes the Titans are "pullin' that Jared Cook card," and that 2013 will be his last season in Tennessee. Oh boy. Britt is likely on to something — it seems quite likely he'll be allowed to walk in free agency — but his situation differs from Cook's in that he's actually been given a chance to make plays the past two seasons, he just hasn't. Nevertheless, it's an amusing metaphor. Benched for a stretch of Sunday's loss in Houston, Britt has just five catches through two games, and has graded out as a bottom-four receiver in Pro Football Focus' ratings. His tweet, which will likely soon be deleted, will only land him further in the doghouse. Are you serious? Why would you want that head case who isn't even that much better than Gates?

JoeKlecko Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Oh my, your serious about this trade. I was sure you were kidding Everyone has been screaming here about how bad Hill sucks. In two games he has caught 10 balls on 17 targets for 125 yards------Britt has caught 5 balls on 11 targets for 43 yards. You really want to surrender a draft pick for him? Hmmmmmmmm This shows that we are more in agreement than it seemed earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeKlecko Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I watched him play all throughout his college career at RU he also had a great first season as a Titan. The Jets need WR help any idiot can see that. Britt is in a contract year worse case scenario you use him this season and he's gone the next or he has a decent season and you sign him long term. Heard his name? Really? So you absolutely waste a 5th round pick on a one-year rental of a player who's likely to keep being the same slacking POS here that he was in TN? Real smart.

Jetsfan80 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 A change in scenery won't do Kenny Britt any good. A change in careers will. What kinds of things do you think Kenny Britt could do in the real world? The NFL WR position is reserved for malcontents. Almost nowhere else in society would they be effective. SEE: Irvin, Michael; Moss, Randy; Burress, Plaxico; Holmes, Santonio; Rogers, Charles; Young, Titus; Owens, Terrell; Johnson, Chad/Ochocinco, Chad.........or below (Arrests since 2011): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nycdan Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Do you really think Kenny Britt puts the Jets over the top to take the division? We could be only two players away from winning the division. Unfortunately they both are under contract with the Broncos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Edwards had relatively minor issues. He's a decent guy. Britt is a bad guy. I think his point was that a team absolutely would deal a skill position player with high upside this early. Britt being a bad guy helps his argument rather than works against it. Plus Edwards was still starting when we traded for him, and Britt isn't. Edwards didn't have nearly the bad blood with the Browns that Britt has right now with the Titans. His point wasn't about how good the player is we're trading for, using Edwards as the comparison. Rather he was pointing to the idea that another team WOULD be willing to give up someone like Edwards this early so Tennessee trading Britt right now isn't that far-fetched at all. In other words, he's looking at it from the Cleveland/Tennessee POV, not the Jets' POV. As to whether we SHOULD do it, or as to the potential benefit to the Jets, that is a separate discussion.

bitonti Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 fairly sure the Jets can get Kenny Britt for a song in the offseason. He's a free agent right? you don't trade for rentals when the team isn't a contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a free agent right? you don't trade for rentals when the team isn't a contender. I tend to agree. Only possible reason is that he's SO talented that maybe, if a change of scenery is all he needed, he could turn his career around and we could basically get something for nothing. I don't see how learning from Santonio Holmes is going to make him a better person, plus NYC provides just a wee bit more peripheral distraction than Nashville. Also Geno Smith, at this point, isn't exactly going to make everyone around him better in the way that Tom Brady would if NE decided to pick him up for nothing. On top of that, Rex doesn't exactly come across as a strict disciplinarian either (not that Britt seems likely to respond to that). Tampa, with Schiano, might be his best landing spot if they needed a starting WR, but with no real chance at starting there he'd probably just do his quitter routine there as well. Pick him up for cheap after the season, if available, and make him earn a starting job. Hell, make him behave himself well enough for a month-plus to earn the freaking roster spot in the first place.

The "Young Man" was busted two years ago running away from a Hoboken undercover cop, after dropping a rolled blunt in the car wash. So my point is that his "boys", obviously as a Rutgers guy, are here, and in consideration that his WR Coaches do not like him, I don't know if we really want this guy around. A dogg is a dogg. If you're going to take plays off, forget it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I was told by a military friend from Clarksville, TN (1 hour from Nashville) that Britt has randomly shown up at their base drunk driving multiple times. Not sure what to make of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
