Still want him?

http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/6792700/new-york-jets-braylon-edwards-guilty-dwi-plea-agreement

I think he is one of those cancer types. The DUI doesn't bother me as much as when he was caught out drinking last year until 4 in the morning a couple days before a game and the night before practice. Football is not a priority.

act like u haven't ever done the same thing on a weekday in your entire life...

Not saying I want him... Let's just calm it down on the judging from afar

People who drink and drive KILL innocent people. Do not try to justify it by applying the fact that you have done it before. If you lost a child or wife or parent to a drunk driver, I doubt your attitude would be so casual.

I don't want Braylon Edwards because he can't catch.

And if we get Braylon, I do not think you would have to worry about Smitty liking him. It would be because Steve Smith is on another team.

After the Jarrett mess, I do not see BE in panther blue.

If you can't judge someone based on getting arrested, then when can you judge them? This isn't his first time getting in trouble. We aren't talking about someone that gets paid minimum wage and is a server at a restaurant. This is a pro athlete that gets paid millions of dollars and is fortunate enough to play a sport that 99.9% of the people in the US would give their left arm to play. So yes, I have a problem when people get paid millions and don't act like professionals.

Obviously his record is something that should be in consideration. To my knowledge though, he's avoided legal problems for near a year now. It's something I'll leave up to the FO to judge. If they believe he's changed, no problem for me.

As for dropping balls, he only had four this year. And had the 12th lowest drop percentage in the entire league.

I doubt he will see anymore legal ramifications, and its highly unlikely he will be suspended imo. With that said I still wouldn't have him on my board as a top option, but I would absolutely have him under serious consideration, given his past success in the system.

As far as the DWI stuff. Drunk driving is a serious problem. And a lot of people do it. I think it's better to judge the problem than the people. Braylon "can" be reckless and immature, he has proven that. But there is still that possibility that he's grown up some and surrounded himself with better people to get his career back on track.

I got a DUI, and it's no joke. I got it less than a month after I turned 21. I dont think it should necessarily prevent someone from being considered though. His apparent lack of passion for the game is a bigger concern IMO.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
