Greenseed3 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Uhhh...do you guys that want him know that he's had 13 run-ins with the police in the last two years? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Marshall#Legal_trouble According to my count it's only around 7.

AFJF Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Brandon Marshall showed in that video that he is the elite WR some of us say he is. I'd love to hear reaction from the "he's only good because he plays with Cutler" crowd after watching that. Fingertip grabs, breaking TONS of tackles, making people look flat out silly 1-on-1 and 2-on-1, getting out of gang tackles, blowing past CBs on fly routes. The guy is an animal. I hate to endorse getting a player that's pulling what he's pulling right now but lets fact it, this guy is a top 5 NFL WR and makes the Jets a legit contender. Get this guy or get Braylon Edwards and call it a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFJF Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Marshall#Legal_trouble According to my count it's only around 7. He's made some stupid decisions without a doubt. I don't see how they list him as being involved in an incident in which somebody he is with gets shot because of something his cousin did. They may as well have listed every person in the club that night as being involved. Oh, and an illegal lane change? Seriously? The domestic issues raise a red flag more than anything to me. I'm not a fan of having woman beaters on the roster. I know some peole are fine with it but I have a hard time rooting for somebody like that. Problem is, unless details of the incident are released we don't know it wasn't just an argument that led to his fiance calling the cops or not. Anything is considered domestic abuse nowadays and there's a difference between grabbing somebody by the wrist in the heat of an argument, and beating the living **** out of them to prove what a tough guy you are. Neither is right, but one is obviously far less acceptable than the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebabyny Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Theres 3 sides to every story. This guy obviously needs a change of scenery and fast. Id love for him to be in street clothes on the sidelines Saturday night as a JET. Tanne go get him. Cutler left for a reason it looks like Marshall wants out also. I don't know man, who knows he story, but whatever it is, that video shows a world class deuche. All I know is, I have had a lot of jobs in my life, some sucked, but if I had a job and was getting paid, I did that job to the best of my abilities and wanted to be the best, didn't matter if i was 15 selling tshirts for 3 bucks on canal street in chinatown or working on wall street on an equity trading desk. Pulling this chump crap just shows he has no brains whatsoever. And in my experience, if someone is that level of stupid, you can't teach them out of that hole, stupid is as stupid does. Say what you want about TO, that guy wants to compete and show the world he is the best no matter how pissed he is, I doubt you would ever see him pulling that crap and making himself look like a scrub. This Marshall kid has born-to-lose written all over him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joebabyny Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Unless there's some under-the-table stuff going on through his agent. It wouldn't suprise me if a team start digging around to see what kind of contract Marshall is looking for. A few millie, some bling, a few bags of singles each week during the season to make it rain in the strip club packman style, and a nice set of chromed 26inch asante rims for his whip, and a reality tv show deal.

#27TheDominator Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 There has been some chatter that he would be happy with a deal similar to Roddy White's. 6 years/$48M $19M guaranteed. I don't see the point. If we wanted a head case for a ton of money, then why not pursue T.O.? He'd be a short term headache and we wouldn't be wasting a draft pick to sign him. Brandon Marshall could be great, but he can also be very destructive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSage Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Great receiver but a jaywalk away from suspension. Don't know what kind of teammate he is. Anyone know anything about that? Gut reaction is that even head cases can play for Rex but how long will he stay on the field and how will he affect young guys on the team. Jusr raising a few questions to further consider. Would i like to see him on the field in Green-of course but not at an excessive cost-no No 1's and nothing that would kill overall future drafts or cap killing contract. And oh yeah-deal should be conditionned on morals contingent picks and and contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'm saying if I want a nutbag WR I'll take the one that will only damage the team for 1 season rather than an eternity of cap troubles AND a first round draft pick. I'd prefer my coach killer to be under contract for only one year. TO would have made the Jets a better team on paper. All the negatives that apply to TO apply to Marshall, except age, plus he's got the one strike away from suspension thing. On a short term deal, age isn't so important. Marshall may be willing to turn around be a straight arrow, try hard and act the good teammate. They'd better be damn sure before they pull the trigger.

TheSage Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Then you're not getting Brandon Marshall, because that will not happen. I cannot disagree but those should be conditions with teams like this. The team near the back bay could take a chance on a TO because they have a HC (who make be a cheat and SOB) but commands absolute respect, veteran team with few holes, winning program and vet QB leader but a with a team such as ours can we take a chance on a head case? That was the point-on our terms or pass on it. I negotiate for a living and if the deal doesn't make sense move on to the next one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetfan13 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I don't think they can trade him now without looking equally as stupid as he did in practice. At this point they need to send him home like the bucs did with Keyshawn and let him sit the year out. If i was the coach I would get him away from the other players ASAP +10...agreed 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 People try to tie the interest/pursuit of Marshall to Sanchez, but I think that's off base. If the Jets are interested in Marshall it's all about 2009, not necessarily the future for Sanchez. If the Jets were strictly concerned about the future they would forego any exploration of a Marshall trade. Next year's WR draft class is deep and there are, potentially, top flight WRs that would be available in free agency (ex. Edwards). The Jets have a mix of veterans & young players. A play for Marshall would be more of a move to appease the veterans than anything else. The veterans are desperate to win now. Their primes are dwindling. Marshall helps them now. He should be on his best behavior for at least 1 year (TO was, so was Randy). A play for Marshall is all about making the playoffs this year. Thus, from a Jets perspective, all you guys who say you'll be happy with or expect 7-9, 8-8 are on the moon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I stick by this ranking: 1. Edwards 2. Bowe 3. Marshall Edwards won't be available until next year (at the earliest) and Bowe's availability is a myth. Marshall is available and the Jets should pursue him, but the idea of trading a 1st for him is ludicrous. The Broncos are not in a position of strength here. They shouldn't be given a premium on a premium player with all these other issues involved. I'll be highly surprised if the Broncos get a 1st. I think it would be more in the 2nd-3rd round range AT BEST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alk Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 lol......mcdaniels really fu*ked that team up man. it's obvious marshall just wants out and is doing anything to just make the team trade him. i'd still like him here.....as long as he wanted to come here he'd be a great addition at receiver. So cutting out all of the cancer is all of the sudden a bad thing? He may fall on his face but I completely agree with what he's doing. I wouldn't want either of those clowns on my team either.

If your basing this on attitude I can understand that but talent wise this guy is easily top five in the league right now. hes going about this in the wrong way, no doubt very immature but that does not mean he wont take to his new coach and play his ass off.

The team doesn't have to roll over and Cutler demanded a trade because McDaniels tried to trade him and wouldn't even provide a nominal vote of confidence. Cutler seems like and immature douche, but he certainly was not handled properly this offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
