Are you suggesting that the Jets can't possibly take a linemen worse than Hunter in the 2nd or 3rd round?
I remember how this forum was up in arms over the Pouha draft pick. My, how that worm has turned! Yes, self serving inasmuch as I was one of the few who defended that pick.
33 year old LINEMAN lots of wear... I dont see the brains in that Just freed up 8 million with Dbrick being a team player
I don't remember this forum being up in arms over the Pouha pick at all. Come to think of it, you weren't even a member of this forum when Pouha was drafted. You sure you aren't thinking of Jets Insider? But don't let me interrupt your self-congratulations.
My join date is June 2005... the year he was drafted. There was plenty of discussion over that pick long after the draft. I focused on him when I was writing my TC reports in 2005. Try the search function.
I think we give him 2 years at most. We will be grooming Ellis to eventually replace him, and Pouha will be a good mentor for him. We can't give him 4 years at 33. He has stepped it up the last couple years, but he'll probably ware down soon.
Ah, I see you did. I also see how you exaggerated how 'this board was up in arms' over the Pouha pick, because looking at the threads that you yourself bumped, it seems like a pretty even distribution of people 'up in arms' versus people willing to give him a chance, and I also noted that the most frequently vocal people bashing the pick were also some of the biggest morons on the board at the time. Again, please don't let me interrupt your self-congratulations.
... and about 5 of that goes to the incoming draft class. We are up against the cap this year adn need more players to restructure if Pouha is expecting to make a good deal of money.
This shows the quality of player the NYJs think Pouhla is. If they thought they would lose him & if they also thought he was abig cog in the future of the NYJs they would have tagged him :sad:
ahh yes. wanting to sign a player to a long term deal rather than a 1 year rental means they do not like the player and want him gone. that's why the eagles slapped the franchise tag on djax. because they want to keep him around forever.
You assumed I meant L/term contract which U R 100% incorrect. What I meant by not tagging him they are saying you are just a so so or lower player & if you depart we can easily find your replacement :sad:
i didn't assume anything. i read the article you linked which stated they are not tagging him, instead they are aiming for a long term contract. but i didn't see who i was replying to. i've seen enough of your posts to know your gimmick.
Well in my world Mangold is way, way, way more the more quality player then Pouhla. As for using the franchise tag I think since sooner or later U either sign the player or let him go then on top of that some players despise being tagged so they refuse to report so now U also have L/room issues to go with the tagging issues :sad:
you said "this" referring to the article. which i ASSUMED meant you actually read the article. but i guess not. i do suggest you click the link and look closely. :sad:
