eboozer Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Sorry, forgot the link where I Cherry Picked these players. Shout out to Jason @ OTC for his good work. http://overthecap.com/potential-2014-salary-cap-cuts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 All of them interest me and should interest the jets unless Cro wants to cut his salary in half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashmouth Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Some good players on that list but I don't think a rebuilding team like the Jets should pay big bucks for aging players at this stage. If we were a playoff team looking for a quick fix via free agency to fill a much needed weakness yeah we might look at one of these guys but we are not in that position yet and I don't think signing guys 30 + is a good idea right now.

eboozer Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 I wouldn't mind antrell Rolle at the Safety spot. Had a heck of a year on an otherwise atrocious Giants "D" Had like 6 picks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freemanm Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 A corner that I do like in the Upcoming FA market is Chimdi Chekwa. He's big and and lightning speed. Could use some help with technique but he would be fairly cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could use some help with technique but he would be fairly cheap Considering the fact that he has defended 2 passes in his three year career, and both of those were back in 2011, you are probably right about needing help with his technique.

eboozer Posted January 1, 2014 Author Share Posted January 1, 2014 Brent Grimes, Aqib Talib, Alterraun Verner, Vontae Davis, Peanut Tillman, Tim Jennings, Sam Shields, DeAngelo Hall Doesn't Davis have 1 more year under contract with colts? Forgot about Grimes.... would be expensive though. Same with Talib and Jennings. Shields, Hall and Tillman could be had in the $4-6 mil range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSJ Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Talib is only 27. I would love for the Jets to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd definitely be a project, but he would be cheap, possibly a good punt returner and is fast enough that receivers won't blow by him like they did Cro and Wilson this year. Rex would be a good teacher for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Il Mostro Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Rolle would be the only guy I want from the list of castoffs and cap causalities but as already stated, he'll be back with the Gints. In hindsight, too bad we did not re-sign Digs-- he had a huge season in Baltimore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Rolle would be the only guy I want from the list of castoffs and cap causalities but as already stated, he'll be back with the Gints. In hindsight, too bad we did not re-sign Digs-- he had a huge season in Baltimore. He's been gone since 2010 and is also an UFA. I think last year was his first actual "good year" He is not the kind of cover safety that we generally want and is usually benched on passing downs. I don't see how he adds much beyond what Landry, Jarrett and Allen. I don't think that he has ever had more than a one year deal. He's been a FA after the 2010, 2011, 2012 and now 2013 seasons.

NYJSanchez Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 I like talib.... Physical, big hitter, makes big plays, i think he will play well for Rex. Attitude an issue though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
