GangisGreen Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 12 mil is probably a low-ball offer. If he does sign my guess is he gets around 14. He is amazing, but for 14 do we really want him when we have other needs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 i did to, but the Edwards thing is over. His agent tweeted that they broke off talks, and Edwards tweeted that it was a very bad doy for him It's never over until something is signed. NEVER!!!! It's still posturing IMO..... well I hope it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREENBEAN Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Okay, so we're throwing quarterback money at stopping Hines Ward and Pierre Garcon? It actually seems more practical to just have them both killed. This actually made me laugh.... What's the matter with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoFlaJets Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Revis' number is 11,265,000 add Asomogha's 12 million and Sanchez' 17 million and we can NOT afford the luxury of that much money tied up on 1 position-Sanchez needs to restructure so we can resign Braylon because we all know Revis will NOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 This would've been a great option for the Jets. Oh well... Josh Wilson heads slightly south to Redskins Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on July 27, 2011, 6:39 PM EDT AP The Redskins didn’t pilfer guard Marshall Yanda from the Ravens as planned, but they will take one of the Ravens’ cornerbacks. Jamison Hensley of the Baltimore Sun reports that Josh Wilson will join the Redskins on a deal averaging $4.5-$5 million. We were impressed with Wilson last year; he was probably Baltimore’s best cornerback down the stretch in 2011. He ostensibly replaces Carlos Rogers in Washington. The mid-level cornerback market is starting to thin out slightly with Drayton Florence and Wilson off the board. This is a strong sign the Redskins won’t go after any of the big cornerback names on the market. The Ravens may up their efforts to re-sign Chris Carr now . . . assuming they aren’t getting into the Asomugha business. UPDATE: Wilson’s deal is for $13.5 million over three years, with $6 million guaranteed according to Adam Schefter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plus One Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 There is no incentive for Asomugha to make a decision any time soon. By the time he informs the Jets that he's been playing them to get more money elsewhere, all the other free agent CBs will be gone. As will Braylon Edwards.

There is a very real possibility that this is what's happening. The only good news is that it most likely won't be all that long we have to wait to know.

Never understand fans patting players on the back for restructuring which almost always pays the player more or pays the player the same (except pays it up front instead of spread out over the season). Yet people praise a player for doing so as though the player took some sort of pay cut. Say Sanchez's base is about $15M, or about $900K per week (not bad work if you can get it). He can either make zero now and $900K per week over a 17-week season OR restructure so maybe $8M is converted into new bonus money. He then gets $8M now and $7M ($400K/week) starting in September. It's the exact same money to the player and the only main difference is that he's getting a bunch of it now instead of later. So as I said at the start, he'll be only too happy to restructure as much as the Jets ask him to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECURB Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Cro will wait and see if the JETS land Aso before signing the dotted line... he wants to be a JET... having Revis next to him means he never has to play the top guy and always has the most chances to build up stats.

I sincerely hope we are not like that dog with the bone in his mouth looking at his reflection and going for what the "other' dog has in HIS mouth. We already have two really top notch players here in BE and Cro. We should give them a fair shot to take a deal. Screw Aso and Moss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serphnx Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Maybe Kyle Wilson will develop into the #2 corner we thought we drafted. The first year is supposed to be tough for CBs, Revis had trouble too. Maybe this is the year he steps up so we don't need to sign somebody. Of course then he'll just hold out in another year anyway, but one step at a time.

slats Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 Market "just developing?" After losing out on Weddle, Texans turn attention to Asomugha and Joseph Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on July 27, 2011, 11:12 PM EDT Getty Images The bad news for the Texans: They lost out on safety Eric Weddle after the Chargers reportedly “extended their budget” to get Weddle away from Houston. The good news: They can use the money they saved to go after a cornerback with more value than Weddle. (And we actually like Weddle plenty.) John McClain of the Houston Chronicle reports that the Texans are “working hard” on possible deals for Nnamdi Asomugha or Johnathan Joseph to town. They’ll have to shuffle around other contracts and give lots of upfront money to get a deal done, McClain write. More than 36 hours in sorta free agency, and we get the sense Asomugha’s market is still developing. It wouldn’t shock us if a team we haven’t heard of yet enters the bidding if they learn the price isn’t as high as once feared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Jets & Ham Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I had Nnamdi as a top 5 pick in 2003. I remember his combine numbers and knew he was the real deal. A once in a lifetime talent. The only part I was wrong on is he is a twice in a lifetime talent. My man, Darrelle Revis, is the other part. These two super powers in the same secondary. The legendary Raiders teams never had that. The Steel Curtain never had that. The Oilers team with the top secondary in the late 70's they never had that. These two once-in-a-lifetime talents would combine to give the Jets a once-in-a-lifetime season. A Super Bowl season. I am working on the scheme changes that Rex and Mike P could implement with the wonder twins. That is what I am calling them: The Wonder Twins. If anyone wants me to outline the Wonder Twins Defense, I will do it. Maybe I will give it to Max and Smizzy to put on the front page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
