What do you think he'll want? Brad is a restricted free agent in 2011, he's making $1.7 million now, personally I'd like to lock him up long term. He's just a play-maker pure and simple, he was huge for us down the stretch last season and he might be the most potent player to run the "TigerCat" in the NFL. Plus even though its been a small sample I like the routes he runs, and his hands. He'll be 27 in a couple of weeks, maybe a 4 year deal with a team option at $2.5 million per with extra money to be earned through incentive.
Interesting how you didn't crack any of this info out last week? I wonder why? You would agree our Sts are better than Seattle's, right? you have noticed that pretty mucch every KR the Jets have had under Westhoff has scored a TD, right? You are now going to compare them as Rbs when one only runs on trick plays? I'm baffled at some of the nonsense posted.
Trick plays?? Brad Smith running the ball through his blockers is a trick play? Bengals saw big doses of it last year, they know what they had to do and could not stop it. C'mon man, I thought we were past this trick play crap. A run is a run. Leon ran this and was NOWHERE near as effective.
nah, an end around isn't a trick play. A WR playing QB and running an option isn't a trick play. Come on. The bengals shut down the seminole in the playoff game and the other night, the big play was on an end around.
But if it worked for your argument you'd be all for it. You're just arguing now for the sake of arguing. BTW, the Jets on twitter call it the TigerCat now. Please don't argue that point, I'm just letting you know.
Can someone point out to Junc that when Brad Smith takes a direct snap it's almost always a running play. Everyone knows he's running with the ball and he still picks up yardage. He runs inside, outside, end around, option and still defenses can't stop him. Junc, just admit that Brad Smith is every bit as valuable and more than Leon Washington ever was?
I'm quoting myself here because I don't want this to get lost in the junc. I want Brad on this team, and want him to retire a Jet.
They are trick plays whether you believe it or not. If Brad was running out of a base offense he'd have a much harder time. If you don't believe that I don't know what to tell you. Do you guys watch football? I like you ace, you are a good poster but are you really asking if an end around is a trick play?
That's a great post now how about posting the meaningful #s which would be the guaranteed money. the salary is irrelevant, it's all about guaranteed money.
You posted erroneous info. You were wrong. You are wrong. You can't admit it, but everyone knows it. The end. Twist, twist, twist, excuse, excuse, excuse. There, I just summed up your next 6 posts. And I didn't post much, if at all, last week. So, no info was cracked out. Besides, you asked me to come back when Smith helped win a game for us. So I did. Hello and goodbye. Also, you were wrong. For about the hundredth time this season.
Can someone point out to you that he always has the OPTION to pitch the ball. he is running the option basically and the runs out of that formarion w/ him lining up at QB have not been working for a while.
That's what I'm asking? I have no clue, that's why I threw out a guess. I did not make it clear I apologize, I meant $2.5 million a year guaranteed, and other money earned through incentive. Maybe another $1-1.5 million for total yards achieved.
It's so sad that you run and hide if things don't go your way. I just don't recall you bringing up return average the previous 10 weeks of the season, I wondre why all of a sudden you brought it up? Smith HELPED us win a game w/ that KR, leon WON a game w/ his TWO KR TDs.
To me an end around is a designed run to the perimeter. When I think trick play I think a play in which the ball changes hands more than once (i.e flea flicker, double reverse, hb pass, etc). If an end around is widely considered to be a trick play, so be it.
I guess any handoff to the RB is also a trick play if the QB, after handing it off, fakes the end-around to the WR, right? And whenever the QB fakes the handoff to the RB and then drops back to throw a pass to a WR -- trick play.
