Santonio Holmes, Braylon Edwards?

I know our philosophy is building through the draft and developing our players but we have occasionally made selective strikes in FA.

So, I ask, FIRST, is WR still a position that needs to be addressed with guys like LaFell, Gettis, and possibly AE emerging next year?

And second, if you feel it does still need to be addressed, do you think either of these guys would be a good option to bring in with Smitty?

Nothing against LaFell, I think he'll get better with time. But, if we brought in a guy like Holmes or Edwards, or drafted AJ Green (which I doubt happens), imagine having Smitty, one of these guys, and Gettis at WR. We could line up Smitty in the slot and let him work the zones like Welker, which I think would be ideal as he gets older.

First thing is first though, and we need a QB we know we can trust in the new offense.

I like this thread... It makes me happy. I'm smiling right now. Like seriously. Smiling.

:D

If I had too choose tho. I'd take Holmes over Edwards. I used to be a Braylon fan, but that's when I was hoping he'd be a star for the Browns and get them out of the poo hole. Now I don't really care for him. He's an over payed over hyped LaFell. Way too may drops by him.

Even tho Holmes has his "character issues" he's a fckin' baller. That's all I have to say.

I remember last year when Holmes was traded for a 5th everyone was saying he has "issues" and he is too much of a problem player for the Panthers.

lol

I wasn't one of those, lol.

I doubt the Jets let him go. I am iffy about Edwards, I think they'll do what they can to keep both of them. If I had my choice I'd take Santonio, and would've done so last year as well.

Edwards is an overrated diva that will never reach his full potential. Pass.

I'd take Holmes though, despite his issues with drops this past season. Unfortunately there is no chance the Jets will let him walk. They need all the play makers they can get to make Sanchez look like a competent quarterback.

I remember.. fans and this bullshit about being a perfect fuging citizen.. Holmes is clutch and a real threat..

i missed that

it was all over the board.. Holmes is too much of a concern, and all the Jets got was a real threat for a 5th round pick, LMAO...

I would take Holmes, you can't pass up clutch receivers.. Edwards is a real talent, but he worries me..

as for the thread, WR is not locked up by any means.. we have no real #1, and Smitty needs to be our #2.. Gettis and LaFell are #2 at best..

and don't give me the "no one to pass to him" bullshit excuse.. you don't wait until you find a QB to address the rest of the roster.. that's stupid, give it up.

LMAO... this is the retarded poo I'm talking about.. no offense, KP..

Holmes is clutch as hell, and lives for big game moments.. but hey, we can go for the meek and mild, and never win the big game... kind of like the Panthers have done in the past..

this character thing is a real winner! WR and Diva? nooooooooooo...

If we get Holmes i'll be happy to draft Fairley

fo shizzle.. I see a nice bidding war from the Jets side though..

I never said Holmes wasn't clutch. In fact, I said I wanted them to pursue Holmes if he was available.

I said Edwards was the overrated diva. Which he is.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
