KSJets Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Can we even go after him? I think the final 8 rules are still in effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jason423 Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Usually if you are a RFA the team retains those rights as long as they extend the qualifying offer on June 1. Unless the Rams have no thought of paying him 7 million (and they paid him close to that last year) Id imagine they would just extend the offer. If they dont he becomes a UFA, but we would be restricted until July 22nd in signing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 That would make our secondary Otgowe better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neckdemon Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 i think the guy wants a big money long term deal. and he just had reconstructive shoulder surgery and is reported to have a sports hernia. idk if its a good idea to give him a big money long term deal at this point.

124 Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 He's probably going to want BIG money and in the next two years we need to resign the majority of these players to long term deals: Darrelle Revis Nick Mangold D'Brickashaw Ferguson Santonio Holmes Braylon Edwards David Harris Antonio Cromartie And then lets face it, if he does become the RB of the future: Shonn Greene. Sooooooooooooo yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ... probably not going to happen. But with the Jets you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I'm not sure he'd be a UFA in so far as the final eight rules are concerned. Jets were free to sign any RFA who wasn't tendered without restriction. It's a waiting game 'til June 1, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Do not want. Otogwe is as soft as the other side of the pillow, which explains why the Rams chose not to re-sign arguably the most talented player on their D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodimwithere Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Atogwe will become an unrestricted free agent because the Rams, his former team, tendered him (making him a RFA) then WITHDREW the tender. When a restricted free agent does not have an offer from his former team, he becomes unrestricted. Just wanted to correct the impression that Atogwe will become a UFA by not signing his tender; he has no tender to sign. That's why he will become a UFA, instead of remaining a RFA.
