CrazyCarl40 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 No matter what else we do this offseason this will prove to be the best move. Very pleased with this and pleased for Jerricho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefenseWinsChampionships Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Any word on how long we locked him up for? It better be a 6 or 7 year deal if you ask me. We must sign K.Rhodes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 VERY good move and I'm glad it's signed & done long before there could ever be any talk of Cotchery going elsewhere. He finally got his chance to show his talents last year and he certainly stepped up and performed. Here's for the next 5-7 years of some great things coming out way from JC, hopefully.

124 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 For how much? How long? Any REAL facts? The Jets never release the numbers on their website. The only real fact you need is that he has been re-signed and it's probably around a 4-6 year range. JC is going to be a New York Jet for a while, thats all we need to know. The years and money will come out in due time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Troll Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Getting Cotchery done now was much more important than getting Rhodes done. I'm pretty sure Rhodes is a RFA after the season. If we tender him with a 1st and 3rd tag, no one is going to give up that much for a safety. That's when the heavy negotiations with Rhodes should start. And, even if they don't, we can franchise him after the 2008 season. We could not have placed the tag on Cotchery due to the salary differences between a WR and a safety. Great move by the front office. They have done every thing right as of March 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Troll, agree with you 110% brotha. Getting KR will happen in due time, getting JC done was a must to get done before the end of next season.

mbn007 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Good news indeed. Based on the premise that the current regime wants young, talented guys around, and all the nice words from the FO about him last year, and how important he was to the future, I would be shocked if this deal is for less than 4 years. In fact, I bet that it is more likely a 6 year deal, and hopefully a roster bonus instead of a signing bonus, so it does not kill any future caps if that time should ever come.

KSJets Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I thought Kerry Rhodes still had 2 years left on his rookie contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 I thought Kerry Rhodes still had 2 years left on his rookie contract. He does but he may be able to become (and I'm guessing Troll you know that he will become if we do not re-sign him) a RFA after this season. Either way, Rhodes is under contract through 2008. Don't worry, Kerry Rhodes isn't going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-MONEY87 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 This is great, I'm excited to keep a good productive hard worker like J Cotch. Now that this deal is done, I think it's safe now to buy his jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dickkotite Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 i hope we didnt over pay him. he is JAG, imo. nice to have but not worth a huge commitment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo Lew Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Dick, With his numbers from last year (being his first full season) and Pennington throwing to him I do not think its fair to classify him as a JAG yet. So far he has clearly surpassed that tag if you ask me. And my opinon doesnt even include his training effort and his locker room presence which must both be solid since Mangini is always praising his hard work. If he remains healthy I think we will see continued improvement from him next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blurredorunfocused Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Right I`m back form my J=_co celebration.. Any figures yet? whatever this guiys worth it, if any guy on our roster has come out and said he`ll do what it takes to both succeed and stick with the manmgini philosphophy its Jerricho, he deserves it all. this is a great day, Jerricho realises Manigni is building a dynastyn of his own and he wants to sign up and be a part of it, the sooner Rhodes et al the better, we are on the veryge of great great things, long may it continue!!

OK, maybe a tad more than a JAG but really the guy has had one decent year. if they overpaid him and he starts to miss 5 games a year and gains 600 yards or so, you will be pissed I said this about JMAC when we got him too. a guy who hardly proved himself and jet fans had already annointed him to th HOF. be careful out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
