    Excellent. And Rex isn't here to piss away the 7th pick on his son's best friend's aunt's paperboy.

    Getting a pick is a nice bonus

    it was Idzik who took Idzik's son's best friend, not Rex..

    just found out the Jets are getting a 7th round pick back. really makes this trade a no brainer, even tho i don't really like Marshall.
    maybe they can roll both 7ths back into the 6th round should someone drop who they like.

    Who was the Idz pick? I remember us taking Boyd because Rex's son played with him down at Clemson. I also remember when they had some putz from the organization actually came out with a draft card to announce that pick. My exact feelings at the time was WTF is this shit. Turns out that was a "handpicked" Rex draft choice. Almost as bad as wasting a pick on that bum Scotty McKnight to make Sanchez feel better.

    Don't hate Rex, but damn I'm glad that kinda shit is done with.. I hope..............

    Loved this quote from him today: "he (Bowles) allows guys to be themselves...treats everyone like men and pros"

    I liked what Bowles' defence did on the field the past two years but I LOVED his demeanour when we got to hear him speak. He seems like a likeable guy who will hold his players accountable.

    That's from EA's phone call with Marshall. You can find it on the Jets facebook page.

    Bohanon played at Wake Forest with Idzik's son for multiple seasons, and they are good friends..

    i don't consider Boyd as having played with Rex's son, who was a freshman walk on who i dont believe ever stepped on field during Boyd's senior year. it's a different situation.
    also i don't believe Idzik allowed much coaching influence on his picks... he did what he wanted.

    Oh you mean , Hell on Wheels. I thought that was a Rex pick as well, you learn something every day. In any case don't know what the hell was going on over there with the Jets during the last few draft. All I know is I hope that ship sailed with Rex and Idz.

    brandon marshall had a conference call today so i guess i'll just tweet some of the highlights

    Dennis Waszak Jr. ‏@DWAZ73 7m7 minutes ago
    Marshall thinks he'll be in position "to really take my game to another level" because of the way Gailey sets up his offense. #Jets

    Brian Costello ‏@BrianCoz 11m11 minutes ago
    Brandon Marshall is the early favorite to win the media good guy award. Holy cow is he a good quote. #nyj

    Brian Costello ‏@BrianCoz 12m12 minutes ago
    Marshall says Geno Smith is flying to meet Marshall tonight to work out with him. #nyj

    Kimberley A. Martin ‏@KMart_LI 15m15 minutes ago
    After playing for a few teams, Brandon Marshall said he wants the #Jets to be his final destination.

    Brian Costello ‏@BrianCoz 2m2 minutes ago
    Marshall on Geno: "He's the starting quarterback now." Said Bowles loves to create competition and expects Fitz to compete with GS. #nyj

    Kimberley A. Martin ‏@KMart_LI 12m12 minutes ago
    Marshall says Geno "has a drive + a passion that a lot of ppl don't see." Adds, he's really excited to "serve" his QB + work together #jets

    I like this

    @KMart_LI: Marshall: Some days Decker will have 10/11 catches and I'll only have 2. "5yrs ago, I wouldn't have been able to cope w/ that the right way"

    Marshall sounds like a mature NFL player. Very rare.

    I'm liking what I see and hear. Marshall has the kind of talent that can elevate everyone around him when he want to.

    It just dawn on me that if with this team and CS Geno takes his game to a new, top knotch level I will have to write a major letter of apology and thank you to Idzik.

    In fact, if Milliner, McDougle and Geno turn this thing around, Mac and Bowles should send him a similar letter.

    You never know what a new regime can do for a player.

    Not sure who you're talking about with the Idzik son thing but I hope it's not Boyd, Rex admitted straight up that Boyd was his pick in a press conference the same week
