He singlehandedly won Dee Milliner his only professional accolade the few weeks he played with him. Santonio & Revis are my two. Shoutout Spencer Long too, who would have easily topped the worst list if Bowles had continued to play him at C and he ended up getting Sam hurt. He played 7 games.

Got it Not sure why you’re still struggling with embracing the simple concept. This is the Jets, afterall. The volume of signings that range from ‘best’ ==> ‘ambivilant’ is roughly 1/4th of the volume that range from ‘ambivilant’ ==> ‘worst’; thereby making it very easy to differentiate between ‘not good’ and ‘nowhere near the worst’.

Not struggling at all. I personally think Reed was a complete waste of a signing, not the worst but he’s definitely up there. I’d think it would be lower then 1/4th.

We paid him $380k for 7 games in which he clearly was a positive contributor both on and off the field. All that for $54k/game. Long term view? Ok I’ll listen if you say he was bad long term since he helped the Jets win out that season which screwed our draft position and extended Rex’s tenure. But strictly speaking to his on-field production vs. cost, he was nowhere near some of the worst FAs we’ve ever signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His hand was mashed, but his coach kept sending him out there. Ed was a cheap half season rental. Revis returning was awful. Tru is off to a GREAT start to make this list.

Freemanm Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Creating cap space is one thing. Macc is an expert at doing that. Knowing what to do with cap space is a very different story, as Macc has demonstrated time and again. For example, releasing Spencer Long when you're O-line already sucks to save cap space is kind of a mystery. But congrats Macc, you freed up cap space by doing so. Can you do something at all with that cap space? You know, such as improving the team? You haven't shown that you know how to do that, yet.

It was one of the worst trades in our history because every mock in the land had us picking Heath Miller. Instead we wound up with Jolley who was terrible, Nugent who was nothing special, and Justin Miller who was an OK returner but sucked at defense.

It was a 4th and Barlow had 6 TDs on a team that made the playoffs. Tannenbaum was really wheeling and dealing that year. He moved up in the first for Revis. He had an extra 2nd and moved back up for Harris. The Jets had swapped 2nds with the Bears for Thomas Jones and had an extra 2nd from trading with the Skins in '06.

The Jets had swapped 2nds with the Bears for Thomas Jones and had an extra 2nd from trading with the Skins in '06. Wikipedia: New York Jets[edit] Looking to replace Curtis Martin, who at the time suffered a serious knee injury, the New York Jets acquired Barlow from the 49ers on August 20, 2006 in exchange for their second round draft pick in the 2007 NFL Draft. He was given an honorable mention by Bleacher Report as one of the best trades in the New York Jets' history.[28][29] As part of the deal, the Jets assumed the remainder of his contract which had three seasons remaining at base salaries of $2.5 million (2006), $3.25 million (2007) and $4 million (2008).[27] If it was a 4th round pick that's still bad but much more forgivable.

Instead of using a 1st rounder on him we acquired a starting player and 2 more picks while still getting Nugent. Again, you can criticize who they were targeting and who they picked but the trade itself was a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
