Kentucky Jet Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 Would a new HC be inclined to start off his NY career with a guy coming off two shoulder operations? assuming he does not want to risk it, who do we draft or how do we rectify this situation? And if CHAD refuses to restructure, what then? The original thought for this post came from JI and a poster named TINSTAR. I thought that it was a great question and one that would spark much input!

Kentucky Jet Posted January 8, 2006 Author Share Posted January 8, 2006 not so if we pay him 3 mil on MARCH 1 and cut him JUNE 1. We could spread the cap hit over 2 years at 6 mil per year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if CHAD refuses to restructure, what then? The original thought for this post came from JI and a poster named TINSTAR. I thought that it was a great question and one that would spark much input! It depends on a number of variables: First, who is the coach Second, what is teh condition of Chads arm-The Jets should have a clearer picture in March Third, How did the Jets and Chad renegotiate Fourth, who did they bring in FA Fifth, What are their draft plans. Way too early to answer any of these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 not so if we pay him 3 mil on MARCH 1 and cut him JUNE 1. We could spread the cap hit over 2 years at 6 mil per year!I don't think so. He's had $6M of his $18M sign bonus come off the cap ($12M left, or what it costs to cut him right now). Pay him another $3M March 1 & that's $15M that needs to come off the cap, whether it's in 1 year, 2 years, or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 the jets should give chad the option to restructure his contract before they cut him. You betcha - with certain guarantee's to cover some of what was already thrown his way. But a lot of production based incentives. In this guys mind, he's 1000% sure he's going to fully recover and be everything he almost never was for the franchise. You can't stick it to him for giving his all. But somebody has to do damage control and make sure he isn't a loadstone that drives us deeper into cap hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaborJet Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 If a team is dumb enough to sign Edwards and give him a raise, then certainly there is a team out there who thinks Pennington is there saviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faba Posted January 8, 2006 Share Posted January 8, 2006 whoever the next coach is really tied up to Pennington and his contract. Still we have to go into next season with the mindset that he is not the starter and plan accordingly to being in a veteran that can start and draft a guy to groom for the starting position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
