to cards for this years 4th and next years seventh... this means atogwe is on the way TRUST ME... i like this move SO LONG AS we replace him with an upgrade and use that draft pick for other needs
I was hoping for a 3rd but I'll take the 4th. Hopefully we make a play for Atogwe or target Rolle in the 4th.
Nothing about that statement is true. Kerry Rhodes sucks. I'm glad he's gone and I'll take the picks.
he was never a pro bowler who was on a team that did not suit his playing style and was unhappy and got benched. the jets got back his original draft round pick plus a 7th rounder. That's a normal trade in this business. This wasn't a position where Tanny could rape another team because the Jets were shopping Rhodes. The Jets will find a replacement. Rhodes was not a dynamic factor in this defense. Somene else can step in at a cheaper price.
The only thing I like about this is future cap relief. Rhodes is soft and an ass but he's also a pretty talented player and was worth at least a 3rd. I'm not shedding any tears over the deal but this is pretty weak.
I thought the compensation was the worst part of this thread... Taking Mays would have been worse than not including the 4th.
Not sure how I feel about this yet. Maybe one of the picks is conditional and could be upgraded based on performance? That news doesn't always come out right away. In the words of a friend of mine, "I'll take it." Also, time for a new sig.
it has yet to be determined.... i think that unless we bring in atogwe or some upgrade at the position outside of the draft that the trade is silly... to trade kerry to draft an unproven talent w/ that pick would be stupid.. jets will either get atogwe or sharper... i really have a feeling atogwe is going to be in green and white
hes a soft player a fourth in this draft isnt to bad at least we are stock piling some picks , maybe even move up who knows???
I'm not a fan of this move:we now need a new safety,we're llimited with who we can sign or trade for and we didn't get much in return for a good if underacheiving player.
For a guy we benched mid-season, and who every fan knows is a useless POS...I'll take it. I am surprised we didn't do what we did with the Chargers, and make next years pick performance based. I mean at least saying 5+ int = a 5th would have been better than a seventh.
