AFJF Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I figured there'd be a contender with a competent FO that would make a move for him. Best of luck Cotch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Weird that he's the victim of such a viscous smear campaign, yet he's going to a team that embraces a rapist yet excommunicates a guy for smoking weed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedin Green Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 One man's trash..... Not a single one of them would have been a starter on the Jets, and 3 of those 4 won't even be starters on their new team. Not exactly sure what's supposed to be the big deal here.

Totally weird. Side note; notice how the 2 ever so important WR's that the Jets couldnt live without have both only signed 1 year deals? Hmmm, I wonder why that is? Weird too, ya know?

I want to know how Cotchery is going to get more playing time on the Steelers so he can showcase his skills and get a big contract. He should have contacted the Cards. Who do they have other than Fitzgerald now that Breaston is a Chief? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonehands Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 So, Cotchery asked to be traded or released from the 2 final years of his contract to sign a 1 year deal with someone else. I guess his dream was to be the 3rd receiver on a lesser team for less money and for fewer years. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Short of the Steelers winning the Super Bowl, I'd say Cotchery's plans didn't work out as planned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsFanFromQueens Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 As Jet fans, we all started to see Jerricho Cotchery break down right in front of our very own eyes. At the age of only 29, he's already a shell of what he once was. Cotchery is a player who's been on a steady decline over the years. He's gone from 82 receptions, 961 receiving yards and 6 TD's back in 2006... to only 41 catches, 433 receiving yards and 2 TD's last season. He's also missed 4 games due to injury related issues over the past two years. I'll miss Jerricho, I'm sure he'll contribute with the Steelers over the next year or two (if healthy), but I also believe it's safe to say Pittsburgh fans won't see what our fan base has always seen in Cotchery; the best of Jerricho has came and gone. Hopefully we'll see Jeremy Kerley come into his own over the next two years, developing as our slot WR of the future, while the Steelers watch Jerricho decline from here on out.

stoicsentry Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 So it's pretty clear that Jerricho's concerns were NOT about being buried at 3 or 4 on the depth chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 So it's pretty clear that Jerricho's concerns were NOT about being buried at 3 or 4 on the depth chart. Actually I'm pretty sure it WAS one of his concerns. He originally left Pittsburgh without a contract because of the fact that he'd be a # 5. Then, with no other options, he came back and signed with the Steelers. Being signed for more than one season probably was the deciding factor.
