TNJet Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 This releasing of Cotchery is the last straw for me. I've been holding this in for about a week now. Why are they downgrading a superbowl team? Why are they ruining our WR options? Cothcery out But Mason in? that mofo is 40 yrs old. We traded in 3 wr's in their 20s,in their prime, all above average I might add, for a 34 yr old Plax that hasnt played in 2 yrs, and sign Mason who I didnt even know still played thats how old that mofo is...and Brad Smith, dont even get me started on how good this guy was. Well great I now wonder if we can get back to the AFC chapionship with these bunch of over the hill posers. It doesnt even seem like the team I loved last season. If Ellis leaves phuck everyone in charge of our team theyre dumbasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. Might want to consider that the front office, what ever their failings, has had some success since they dumped Mangini. This is a sport with a hard slary cap. There are no old timers days and no one gets paid a dime unless they can contribute. That's harsh, but it's reailty. And the players know it as well as anyone, form the day they're drafted or signed until the day they hang'em up. Argualy the 2 worst cap decisions this franchise has made were extending Curtis Martin and Wayne Chrebet(possibly the 2 most popular players in that span) at the end of their careers. Neither move worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ellis leaves phuck everyone in charge of our team theyre dumbasses. Have a little faith... 1st of all apparently Cotch wanted out... 2nd of all we dont know what Tanny has up his sleeve at any given minute. Who saw the Holmes trade coming last year? Or the Edwards trade a few years ago? or the Cro trade? He may not be done quite yet. Now, the defense is the same, but younger... the offense still has its OL, RBs QB, and #1WR intact and signed for the future. My guess is they're hoping that either Turner or Kerley can turn into solid players and contributers in the next year or so...and that Tanny has no problem signing a stopgap type player at the #2/3 WR spots every year if he has to. Its clearly not a position (outside of the #1 guy) that he feels the need to put a lot of money into. If Sanchez continues to improve, the offense will be fine. The defense still has Revis, Cro, and Wilson at CB, solid depth now at the DL after the draft and a crew of LBs that are all good in coverage and great against the run. They, too, will be, once again, a team to be wreckoned with. Oh, and we still have a stud at the most important of all these positions... Rex Ryan at HC. Relax, we'll be fine. Even without Braylon Edwards and Jerricho Cotchery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klecko73isGod Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Really? I loved Cotchery too but he has never been and will never be as good an NFL receiver as Derrick Mason. My favorite overreaction is the Brad Smith lovers. Where oh where will the Jets look to replace Brad Smith's average 1.4 TDs per year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoicsentry Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I'm lost here. You guys understand that we literally have NO WR corps next year??? No one is under contract but Santonio. So it will be Santonio ??? ??? ??? Jeremy whatever the hell his name is, Patrick Turner and Scotty McKnight in 2012. LOL! We are really setting Mark up to fail here.

Im sure there will be a veteran, stop-gap type FA towards the end of his career that will be willing to sign a 1 yr deal next offseason. If I were to guess, Id say Tanne would prefer to do that while the younger guys develop then lock up big money in the 2/3 spots at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klecko, at some point you have to stop playing musical chairs with wide receivers. How is Mark ever supposed to get on the same page with his receivers when they change EVER YEAR? It's not like we even have any young guys to develop and eventually step up.. no. We just have Jeremy Kerley, Patrick Turner and Scotty McKnight. None of those guys will ever start in the NFL.

WR is not a very difficult position to learn. The reality is you are not going to keep 4 guys (QB, and 3WR's) together for a long period of time if they have any sort of success together. I like how Tanne is doing this. You lock up youre QB and #1 reciever, draft/signd UDFA a bunch of development project types, and get stop-gap guys to fill in in the interim.

If I were to guess, Id say Tanne would prefer to do that while the younger guys develop then lock up big money in the 2/3 spots at WR. Clearly the WR position doesn't merit the consideration of ILB here at the NY Jets. It's definitely curious to me the way Rex loves CB's yet doesn't seem to have nearly the same respect for the players CB's are paid to stop. I'll be shocked if the Jets spend a 1st or 2nd round pick on a WR next year, too. Just not their way. I'm sure they'll be looking at other short term solutions when the time comes. Hopefully Kerley steps up. Initial reports about Courtney Smith have been positive, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has the guy ever even gotten over the 1,000 yard mark? I can hardly recall a more hyped up receiver. The guy fleeced us. His $$$ = Braylon, Burress and Mason COMBINED. Not to mention, he is one screw up away from a year long suspension! What a boneheaded move. I guess that discussion is for another day though. Point is, even if we were to release Cotch, we could still have signed both Holmes and BE to give Sanchez some continuity and then draft a WR in round 1 next year to groom. Now let's be honest, Sanchez is going to have problems and everyone will blame them on him, but it won't be because of him that we are failing but because they like to swap his weapons in and out EVERY SINGLE FREAKIN YEAR. Seriously, 3 years with the same receivers and he would be a different kind of player. Now, good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloridaJetsFan Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Dear Visa and All Other Edwards Supporters - NEWSFLASH: Braylon Edwards will once again spend at least FOUR games on the sidelines this season for his off the field offenses!!! Can we possibly manage to find a WR that might be adequate for the 4 games that he won't be in uniform and beyond??? Me thinks Tanny and Co. know WTF is up.
