stoicsentry Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 How are we on the verge of signing someone who hasn't been released, who won't even be released for a week yet? Especially when there are other teams in the mix. My biggest fear here is the Giants, I can just see them grabbing him away from us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he said they are going to make a push for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Tory Holt hasn't even been released, so how is this possible? jetsrule128 knows more about the NFL than Francessa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMC Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 True, but Mike said "on the verge." "Verge" of what? He could have said the Rams were on the verge of releasing Holt. He could have said a lot of things. Are you sure you heard him correctly? Or were you just listening in and out and thought you heard something?

Jaded Green Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 +1 I think Jaded Green misinterpreted what Francesca said.

Irish Jet Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I need to see a link before I believe we're making any kind of push for him. He's not even been released yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcord1786 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Joe & Evan ended their show saying WHEN he is released "IT LOOKS LIKE" the jets are going to push hard for him. Mike was probably in the same room listening to evan and misinterpeted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsrule128 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Tory Holt hasn't even been released, so how is this possible? jetsrule128 knows more about the NFL than Francessa. um i am the only one smart enough to watch football in the offseason this way when jets season starts it makes me think there was no offseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaded Green Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 Mike just now said "Tory Holt is in the Mix," his caller said does it look like it's going to happen, Mike said "Yes Holt is good friends with so in so..." Sorry I missed the name, who either works with the Jets or is friends with Mic'd up himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleDown Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Good news, if true. Holt would be a great addition to our roster. He would bring some much needed experience to our receiving corp and give our young QB a reliable security blanket. Drafting a WR early would still be a necessity, but at least we would have a veteran to plug in while he is being groomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Bit Special Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 jetsrule128 knows more about the NFL than Francessa. This is true. Im sure windbag has no clue on who is on the practice squad for the Jets. Or the forgotten jets players that end up on super bowl teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Jet Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Mike said "Yes Holt is good friends with so in so..." Sorry I missed the name, who either works with the Jets or is friends with Mic'd up himself. Henry Ellard. The Jets hired him in January. It must be a trade. I can't see them letting him walk for nothing. Even at his age, there will still be a market for him if he is released outright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even at his age, there will still be a market for him if he is released outright. Thank you, yes that was who he mentioned, I was getting worried that I mis interpeted it. Mike just said Tory Holt wants to come, and since he likes Henry Ellard it looks good. Sounds like something is in the works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I was lurking through some Rams message boards and I guess this might be true. now there saying the Jets are interested in holt,henry ellard is there receivers coach and was with the Rams for 8 -9 years.there are still 4 teams who are interested in holt. baltimore,dallas,n.y. jets and atlanta hopefully we can trade him to one of those teams before march 17th.that way there wont be a bidding war for him ,otherwise he will be released and that will suck lets go rams, lets get something for him. http://www.cbssports.com/mcc/messages/chrono/13964731 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMJ Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Now it's official! I'm not saying he is wrong for saying that something could be in the works but he is supposed to be "an expert.". It is his job to know more than his listeners and inform/enlighten them on things. Even if his source used those exact words ("jets on the verge of signing..."), Francessa should have known that that wasn't possible due to Holt still being under contract and that currently the only way the Jets or anyone else could acquire him was via trade. So with that said, he shouldn't have used those words (on the verge of signing) even if those were the exact words relayed to him. His lack of knowledge and his not being up to date and informed caused him to pass incorrect information down to his loyal listeners who look to him for "expert insight."
