    No matter what happens going forward we have enough firepower on offense, we needed one of the 2 to return.

    I can honestly see, as I said yesterday, the Jets signing Holmes then Nnamdi THEN getting a big body like Plax or Moss. That still keeps all of our positions very high and gives Mark no drop off completely at the WR position.

    I agree 100%.

    But would Holmes be worth 20 million dollars more than Edwards? Youre talking another 4~ million in cap space a year for 5 years, that would practically be enough money to go out and sign Edwards and Landry for the same price as Holmes.

    Nice news to wake up to. Fucking awesome.


    5 yrs, 50 million with 24 guaranteed is a sweet number. Wonder what clause is in the contract in case he slips and sits a year.

    Tanny is the man.

    Jets Central coming up on 1050 per Collin Cowhered. Its all NFL all the time. Makes the Carlos Beltran talk as exciting as watching grass grow

    Landry is staying with the Ravens.

    There's no way its a 5 year, $24 mil deal. It's $50 mil over the course of 5 years but only $24 of it is guaranteed. That's a pretty good deal if you ask me.

    I love that this is all coming together. It is better that watching it play out over 5 months. It is only Tuesday and we are coming together. This is going to be a great week

    I know what you're saying. Knox is decent though, not great.

    24 guaranteed is the only number we know. I think ESPN guessed the 50 mil part.

    With the guaranteed # being at 24, the Jets clearly won this negotiation.

    Question is... how much of that 50 mill is bonus money and how much actual salary?
