    I was iffy on us getting Jackson before all of this information started appearing about him in the news. I'm not all for going out and getting this guy because seriously at this point it just feels like Philly is trying to slander this guy now, at least short term. I think the all out attack on his character the last few days might light a fire under his ass. I 'd like to have a fired up balls to the wall Jackson here.

    Jack and Decker....
    let's do this thing Izzy!...... for less than ten mil a year

    The jets have the cap space, they have stayed on the sidelines too long, and Jjax is a playmaker. A head case, but a playmaker. Unused cap space does not translate into wins.

    Schefty says Jets are not in on Jackson. Oh well. Build through draft I guess.

    Head cases don't translate into wins either.

    I am so angry if that report is true----idzik fell asleep at the switch during free agency----only signing vick and decker-----after the jets finished the season on a high note I kept counting the days till start of fa---with jets having over 40m to spend I could see them signing about 6 guys to fill the many holes---a couple of wr two te 2 db--------tanny was good in trades-----traded for revis---the best trade since the jets got Namath from Houston in dec 1964---and signed him under the goal posts after the orange bowl----tanny also traded for david harris braylon holmes cro traded up for sanchez and greene---all these guys aided us in getting to two afccg and so close to sb----------jets are so under the cap can sign djax----instead he signs this 5'7" cb

    jets will be fighting to get out of the afc east basement-----he is a fool if he is counting on the draft----jets draft usually produce one maybe two good guys-----the pats keep on restocking the team even though they usually pick 28-32 all the teams pick from the same pool with 17 teams picking ahead of jets in each round

    I saw your titan logo----I was at first titan game in 1960-------so worn out after all these seasons 46 years without a sb-------get idzik the heck out of here---don't know who is getting djax---its prob pats Miami giants the papers will have only good things to say-----its a million to one shot jets get him and all papers will trash jets what a disgrace------im still a jet fan nothing can stop me but this will be pretty close

    Good news, IMO. Although I still wouldn't totally count the Jets out of the sweepstakes just yet.

    I had voted unsure since I thought he might be a good addition to the offense but didn't think they should use the pick on him. Keep in mind this poll started long before the news of gang affiliation came out and my vote now would be no to trading a 3rd rd pick. I am sure many would change their vote since that news came out.
    If there was a new poll without the 3rd rd pick I would probably still vote unsure, not that I put all that much into the gang affiliation news, I'm just not sure a team as young as the current Jets team needs the spotlight from another big news story. I would love his talent on the team for sure.

    Jets are NOT one of the nine teams that now have inquired on free-agent WR DeSean Jackson.

    How's this?
    Welcome to the board.
    Don't make shit up.
    If you do and get caught, buy your own shit and don't be a weasel.
    Have a nice day.

    Good for Idzik....WAITING for DeSean to get cut when 50% of TGG was calling for Idzik's head for not shipping out a 3rd round pick and signing $30M guaranteed contract hour 1.

    Now, the waiting game continues. No need to do battle with yourself over a contract. Wait until 'the other 6 teams' step up to the plate and make their offer known, if those other 6 teams even exist.

    Signing DeSean is a no brainier, and Idzik knows that. But the devil is in the details (details of the contract). It's imperative Idzik avoids the contract nightmare that currently belongs to Belicheck/Hernandez.

    He liked that post because he was liking the sarcasm, on the other hand you liked it because you did not realize it was sarcasm.

    Funny how we went from being one of the only three teams inquiring to none of the six teams that have inquired. The media is a bunch of organized chaos .

    This particular situation is exposing the worst of the sports media, and gives credibility to everyone on this board who hates the analysts and has been screaming there all full of shit.

    It's refreshing to have a GM with a brain in his head. Thank you Idzik!
