SouthernJet Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 We arent goin anywhere this year,,no big deal,, dont trade a decent player or draft pick so we can go 6-10 instead of 4-12.. We will have a decent draft pick next year.. Now that we have OL studs for future lets use our 1st pick in 2007 draft on best RB available.

The Troll Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Michael Bush anyone? No thank you. Show me a 6 foot 3 starting running back. I'd rather have Marshawn Lynch, Kenny Irons, or Darius Walker. Particularly Walker. I think he's gonna be a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live near Cal and I am a HUGE Cal fan, and let me tell you, Marshawn Lynch is one of the most exciting players I have seen in college. He does have character issues though, we'll see how that pans out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernJet Posted August 18, 2006 Author Share Posted August 18, 2006 define these character issues? he has a fetish where he inserts auto parts in his anus.. he has also been found several times at the local petting zoo with pants down and a grin on his face Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 I'm not sold on Michael Bush. APete is the only guy for me so far in the 07 class that I'd move up for if we have to move up that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cant Hackett Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 he has a fetish where he inserts auto parts in his anus.. he has also been found several times at the local petting zoo with pants down and a grin on his face So he sounds like a Mod on this board.

KINGDIRK Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 we won't be picking high enough. Jets will be in the Top 5 again. Maybe a QB or 2 come off the board....a big LT....then we can grab Peterson. I LOVED the draft strategy this year, especially in the later rounds (taking leaders, high IQ guys). In 2007, we need more talent and less boy scouts. Take a chance on a guy with some "issues" in Round 2 or 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugg Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 he has a fetish where he inserts auto parts in his anus.. he has also been found several times at the local petting zoo with pants down and a grin on his face It's not like he pooped in a chick's closet, was befriended by Israeli mobsters, or menaced little girls with handguns in a fast food parking lot. Now if you tell me his agent/adviser is a "nightclub impresario" or a rap star who goes by a dumb name(Master Dipstick or Blue), I'll rule him out.

ragingmiles Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 i live near cal along with brettw4rd and im more of a niners fan, but peterson is gunna be an incredible rb and he'd do real well if the jets, specially with d'brickashaw blocking for him. if he's not available, lynch would be great if he could get the character issues straightened out.

SouthernJet Posted August 21, 2006 Author Share Posted August 21, 2006 so we give up a 4th for Barlow,, who doesnt think the Jets will draft or sign a free agent RB starter next year? Dont understand this move unless they see barlow starting for the next few years...its not like we are a player away from playoff contention in 2006.. I predict we use 1st round pick on RB or sign a high profile free agent RB next year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Hasty Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 While a top RB in 2007 would be helpful we may need to use our day one picks for DL, WR, OL, TE, or even another QB. Also, in today's NFL a solid backup RB is a must. If a fourth rounder buys us our # 2 RB for the next five years, sign me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barlow could conceivably be our #2 rb for the next 3-5 years, now he just needs to get into what Mangini is preaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Hasty Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I don't think anyone is giving him $5 mil in 2008. If we could get him to take a pay cut at some point he could make a good backup RB, starting FB, or both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 2006: $2.5M 2007: $3.25M 2008: $4.0M No bonus money. It's not as much as you think, really. The cap is $102M right now. Next year it'll probably be $110M. And it'll go up again in 2008. So whether Barlow makes $3M or $4M isn't as big of a deal. We paid Blaylock, who has zero chance of being a full-time back, over $2M/yr and hardly anyone batted an eye over it. If he turns into the starting back for 2 years, he's worth the money & the draft pick. It's not like we gave him a huge SB (rendering him uncuttable for years) or it cost us a top-60 pick. So let it go. A top-60 pick could STILL end up being Jon McGraw anyway. There was less objection to drafting a kicker with a 2nd-round pick than there seems to be for a potential 3rd-round pick if he becomes a legit starting HB for us.
