Scott Dierking Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 these are not two separate conversations. if fans knew in the spring time that Cro would be this done, would everyone still be so happy to trade Revis? in fact all we heard last spring was how Cro was awesome and they didn't need Revis. The Jets WERE NOT keeping Revis, PERIOD. If you could not read those tea leaves, you are not looking. Now, the diminishment of Cromartie, and if teh Jets knew that would happen, I am not sure how they would have approached things differently. That is conjecture. Revis leaving was always a given-that was a directive from Woody himself, it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelticwizard Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Considering how bad the secondary is looking, is there any chance we abandon the man-to-man coverage which frees up other players to blitz, etc, and go to the zone? The whole idea of playing man is that you have great corners who can handle people one-on-one. Well, we don't seem to have those players, or those players are in a major slump, or something. Why not go to zone? Our dline is pretty great regardless of what we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Dawan Landry smoked on this TD. http://imgick.nj.com/home/njo-media/pgmain/img/star-ledger/photo/2013/11/-e7cd93a3c8f5a09d.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobraVerde Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 We did blow up the secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is the O doesn't score any points or get any first downs until garbage time. That's a way bigger problem than the secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stugotz81 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Dee Milliner does not seem to have the instincts of an NFL CB...maybe a college CB.....but thats about it. Have Reed mentor this kid into the safety position before he just considered a damn bust and forgotten about. He plays big for his size and I can see him being a big playmaker if he can transition to the "center fielder" role rather than be left man to man with a WR.

Jacked4JetsFB Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I think this is a brilliant idea, lets "blow up" the secondary. Lets get 4 new players, we can use draft picks in round 1-3 and sign the best FA corner available. Than we can lose games next year 6-3 or 9-6. I have a better idea, lets build a real NFL offense.

#27TheDominator Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I would imagine they will be doing some things in the secondary next year. Cro looks awful and is set to make a bunch of money. He's gone or restructing way down. They will have some of that money to throw at a bonafide corner. Landry doesn't seem so hot, so they certainly should look to upgrade at S too. Everybody hates to hear it, but they guys that will be back are Milliner and WIlson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0mShane Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Rex just said on the Kay show that the three long completions were against three different defenses. He defended Milliner, saying that the ball got caught up in the wind and took a weird path (though Milliner got caught peeking at the QB in man). He implied Cro used bad technique on his TD.

joewilly12 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I will bet that is not happening in 2014. Milliner came from a very strong Alabama defense he was surrounded by playmakers hes having trouble adjusting in the NFL just like Kyle Wilson I fear neither player will be the player we thought we drafted.

I can actually buy the wind thing, Santonio was doing the same thing to their corner. Dee Milliner is going thru rookie pains but he's got world class athleticism. Fastest Jet? meanwhile Cro got used and he's looking more and more like salary cap casualty. Idzik was never going to give Cro another dime anyway this just makes it official. I don't blame Idzik by the way, extending/re-working Cro would be burning money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With how depressed cornerback salaries have been recently, you wonder if Cro is going to even get more than a 1 yr/$5 mil deal anywhere. If you can get him for 2yr/$9 mil, the Jets should keep him and hope he's just banged up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
