Jettington Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 This is a great move. This saves cap space in two ways: 1 - We get rid of Harvin's deal 2 - We don't get taken to the cleaners trying to sign one of the top UFA WRs to a contract we ultimately regret due to overpayment.

Villain The Foe Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Would you guys trade our 5th pick in the 2nd Rd for Jay Cutler & Branden Marshall if Cutler is willing to restructure his contract??? I know its a tough decision but should be considered Chicago is in rebuilding mode. Not for Jay Cutler. He has absolutely no trade value. He's a QB version of Santonio Holmes, and the only reason its put up with is because of his position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 i feel a bit bad about this, but i'll get over it We were trolling Dolphags in that thread. That was clearly a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot Killa Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Heard on NFL AM, them talking about Marshall. Jist of the discussion was Cutler couldn't deliver and it wasn't marshalls fault. In face he only played 13 games and had 8 touchdowns. They said to call him a diva s a little overboard.. When the team couldn't step up and win Marshall said something as a leader... Cutler wouldn't. And I have to agree.. GREAT pick up for the jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 That is actually an indication that he is good. sh*tty players get cut and reach free agency. Guys with talent, like Harvin and Marshall get traded. Or an indication that three franchises grossly underestimated how high-maintenance he is.

The Crusher Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 i should necro this and others Still wondering who if anyone will be throwing him the ball. Hard to get excited about any receiver with our current QB situation. Like a toothless man buying a NY strip steak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTM Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 We were trolling Dolphags in that thread. That was clearly a joke. He's very overrated.. But if it's a low draft pick it's not a bad deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustInFudge Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 He's very overrated.. But if it's a low draft pick it's not a bad deal How is he overrated? You ask any corner in the league and they all say he's one of the toughest to guard. Guys a beast. He's a huge upgrade for what has been the worst offensive team in the league.

Jets512 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 He's very overrated.. But if it's a low draft pick it's not a bad deal From 2007-2013 Marshall was 2nd in the NFL in catches and receiving yards. In a "down" year last year where he was plagued by an ankle injury and still toughed it out until his rib injury, he had 8 touchdowns. So how's he overrated? Did someone here call him the best receiver in the NFL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peekskill68 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I know there's a new HC/GM combo in Chicago but what I can't figure out is why they wanted to trade him? His contract numbers seem reasonable and he still seems productive stat wise. I don't think Fox has ever coached him and it seems like his locker room "cancer" reputation is in the past. So why sell?

Like a toothless man buying a NY strip steak. Just gum that steak out! GUM IT OUT! Truth, we do need a QB but at least now we have a true #1 and if they double him then Decker and Kerley can eat defenses alive! Man, I can't wait to get a real QB who can take advantage of this.

CanadaSteve Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 He's very overrated.. But if it's a low draft pick it's not a bad deal Overrated? 7 consecutive years with over 1,000 yards receiving (and probably 8 if he didn't miss three games last year). Three of those seasons he has more than 10 receiving TD's, which would have been four without the three missed games last year. We have VERY VERY different opinions on what is overrated...

JetBlue Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Think this is a ludicrous hypothetical, but, if we can get Marshall for a 5th round pick, I would go ALL OUT for foles. Very prophetic..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
