    And the mileage of a 26-27 year old.

    Unless you're just against the Jets improving, I'm not sure how this can be seen as a terrible trade.

    Yeah baby. I'm glad they got this old issue buried. Him and Leon should be a nice one-two punch, with Leon bringing more pain...

    So, did we give up our 1st or 2nd? If we're getting a 2nd round pick back, we must've given up either our 1st round pick, or the 2nd round pick we received from Washington.

    This just makes the deal with Washington last year look that much better by the way. Unbelievable we were able to essentially pick up our feature back just by repeatedly trading back in the second round.

    Wow, that's a damn good deal by Tannenbaum.

    We basically traded down 26 spots and got a proven, fairly young starting caliber RB. Nice.

    We didn't need a full time starter, just someone to split carries with Leon. He fits the mold perfectly, a big back who's not too old and is a proven rusher. The fact that we get their 2nd rounder too is a steal.

    guys, this is if not the best deal i have seen from the jets in the last few years...what a freakin steal this was!!! we got a RB for virtually nothing considering the talent from 37 to 63 is not really going to decline much...

    BRAVO TANGINI, BRAVO!!!

    Swapped the Skins pick with their own 2nd rounder.

    Moved from 37th overall to 63rd overall to get Jones.

    So, does anyone have any idea what T.Jones is going to be getting paid?
