    I agree with you but it's all about timing. I think Idzik and the front office know that realistically the Jets chance at contending for their next SB is not in 2014.

    Clemons is above replacement level.
    The reason the Jets collapsed talent-wise is that they had no cheap talented players on the roster. This meant that the overall cap became unhinged over time and they wound up with lots of aging expensive players on the roster.

    One of the reasons the draft is so important is that it is your *only* source of cheap high-level talent, those being the players you found in the later rounds who are playing like top level players for several years but at bottom-rung salaries.

    Goodson can't stay out of jail or stay healthy (cruel maybe)
    Ivory can't stay healthy.
    Powell is not sexy enough for the CS after clearly being the best all round back.
    Actually we cut the best back on roster during pre-season...............

    i'd really like chris johnson on our team

    he can be EXTREMELY effective still if we don't use him a lot. you can't teach 4.24 speed

    I would take Chris Johnson but I won't get my hopes up.

    how much would the jets have to pay CJ2k?

    5 million a year at least? maybe front load a larger sum?

    he's only missed one game in the past 6 seasons, so injuries don't seem to be a thing. he hasn't lived up to another 2k season but is till one of the better running backs in the game, and should be a fine insert to the teams backfield passing game. he's still gonna want a good amount in frequency and honestly still deserves it to a degree, so he won't be cheap.

    I have no idea what his personality is like, so I don't know if he'll be a good presence or not.

    he seems worth it, but lets see what Idzik thinks.

    Screw Chris Johnson, let's start the Aaron Rodgers thread. That's the perfect scream at Idzik thread for the haters.

    "Idzik you bum! Aaron Rodgers has been out there on the Packers roster ever since you were hired and you still can't close a deal for him, ya bum ya."

    I sure am starting to question Idzik. Who wouldn't try and pry away Rodgers? Trade them 3 6ths, Jeff Cumberland, and Pace. Done deal. Idzik sucks!

    PS- LOOK AT ALLLLLLL OF OUR CAP ROOM!!!! BUYYYYYY SOMEONE!

    For vet min, I'd take a chance and bring him into camp.

    Well so would Idzik for vet minimum, but you know the guy is not going to spend the money or resources to go acquire Aaron Rodgers. Idzik is just too slow and plodding to get that kind of deal done.
