Smizzy Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 The New York Jets have released CB Andre Dyson and WR Justin McCareins and waived G Adrien Clarke. The announcement was made by Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum. Dyson, who completed his seventh NFL season, signed with the Jets as an unrestricted free agent on March 30, 2006. He had one interception in nine games in 2007 and totaled five interceptions in two seasons with the Jets. McCareins, who finished his seventh season in the NFL, was acquired by the Jets from the Tennessee Titans on March 5, 2004. In 2007, McCareins had 19 catches for 232 yards. In four years with the Jets, McCareins totaled 141 receptions for 2,062 yards and seven touchdowns. Adios. I would have kept Dyson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Very surprised about Dyson. he was the Jets best CB in 06. had a bad year last year, but I was hoping that it was some kind of nagging injury. Guess not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Adios. I would have kept Dyson. I'm wondering if his salary had anything to do with it; i don't know what it was, but if it were a couple million than i'm not too upset. He had a great year in '06, but i think this means we may look for a cb in the draft. I really like tracy porter, however i think he may be gone, in that case i think Antoine cason is a good all around football player. I'm hoping that the releasal of McCareins is a sign of good things to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyjetsjetsjets Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 i liked dyson too, but its not big loss in my opinion, we don't really have much other than revis at this point so im figuring (hoping maybe) that they have some plan. maybe samuel is actually coming here afterall? either way, its great to know that mccareins is finally gone.

Irish Jet Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 No way this guy was a liability on Defense. He was terrible. He was this year in the limited time he played, the year before he was very solid and showed good potential. We don't have much better left with the exception of Revis.

I've heard that too. Someone on a different board lives near him and says he's a very humble guy and extremely nice. That having been said, I don't want him anywhere near this team ever again..ever.

JETSFAN5180 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 are you thinking of barrett? Nope Andre "missed tackles" Dyson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Nope Andre "missed tackles" Dyson. I know what you're talking about but even so that doesn't take away from the fact that he was very good in 06. He just had 2 very costly missed tackles (one Eric Smith could have made too) that have landed him in the doghouse. I thought he was pretty good in coverage and ten times better than either Barrett or Miller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Dyson was only set to make $1.2M this season. The next two years would go up over $2M. This was the short year on his deal. I liked him and had more faith he could turn it around than any of our other #2 CBs, but they obviously had lost all faith in him and we won't miss him if his production was going to equal '07. I don't read anything meaningful into this because they didn't use him that much, have Miller coming back and we all expected them to be looking for another corner in any event.

Columbia Jet Fan Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Honestly, did Dyson have a threesome with Mangini and Tannebaum's wives in the offseason of 06??? Never understood why he didnt play that much in 07 after he had a very solid 06 IMO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the cap acceleration of the remainder of his (relatively low) signing bonus, it's a wash cap-wise. This isn't a salary dump. This is just a player dump. Mangini must simply not want him on the team. Now cutting McCareins? We get the added benefit of both his departure from the roster and added cap space.
