Damn, I wouldn't have minded taking a flyer on him for a 5th. We've got like 4 7th rounders so why not... stash him on the PUP if he's still not ready and see what happens.
 
But cut their best run blocker?

=======================================================

I have much respect for faneca, but he is past his prime and was the weakest link on the Jets O line.

I understand Faneca was on the books for 7 mil and the Jets only save 2 mil by cutting him and have to pay the other 5 still.

I am on the fence about cutting him, but we should not make the mistake of overrating him.

I actually do understand cutting him - he was a disastrous pass protector. I just don't think cutting Faneca helps the supposed commitment to running the ball.
 
The Rat Fan rooting methodoloigy...(using Faneca as an example)

"if the player is a Jet then "he's ALL Pro!!!!!!~ Best guard in the NFL_!!!!Tough!!!!Mean!!!!WE STOLE HIM!!!"

If same player gets cut..."best days behind him...he was All Pro LAST year...this season his skills have eroded...we were paying too much..he's become a cancer

take out Faneca insert Leon Washington and you get the EXACT SAME SCHIZO RESPONSE. If you need proof just open up the first page at J.I. or Gangrene and look at the threads.

same thing can be said here as well. The same place where I read one week you guys wanted Marshall the next he actually is a negative for the dolphins. Bottomline is every fan base/board has guys who will spin everything i nto a positive for their team i.e. you guys got Spikes you love him, if the Jets took him he would be a thug would who tried to turn a georgia RB into a cyclops

Why tender him to a second if you want to trade him anyway? I guess they needed assurance they would get their guy in the draft

I think you may have nailed it here. Im sorry to see him go b/c he was a thrilling player and great guy but he did turn down the contract offered last year then had a compound fracture. The nature of the beast, RB's are replaceable
 
uh...K-Ro...Ray Ray 19...SG3...you sure you want to go in to this firefight with your pea shooter versus my anti-tank guns?

I loved eye gouging incident. That's the mean streak you want your starting ILB to play with.

Are you guys regulars at JetsInsider? I went over there to check things out and decided against registering because it looks like it's populated by hate-baiting 12-year-olds. Flame wars abound. "Billy Belicheat," "Billy draft whiffer," "Can't wait to see so-and-so break Gronkowski's back over the middle," etc., etc. I love to poke fun at Jabba Wrecks and the Jersey Green Beans, but try to avoid being downright nasty about it. Them folks is N-A-S-T-Y!

Pistol Pete Carroll hasn't had a problem pulling the trigger this off-season has he. The Seahawks look to have made impact moves in the last few days.

I can't wait for more family feud between Petey and Taylor Mays - can't you just see Singletary using that to motivate Mays as a hitman? The NFC West could get thugly. :)
 
Seattle will now be the cleanest franchise in the NFL thanx to Pete the Cleaner...

I'll NEVER forget his press conferences after Patriot losses..."we're doing great!!! just need to clean a few things up.."...by the time he and Grier were done they dyam near cleaned us out

No kidding. Pete was over his head and dealt with it by retreating into some bizzaro alternate reality. His press conferences were as predictable as BB's.

This team SHOULD have made a deep run to the SB the following two years, but Carroll and Grier put the kibosh on that. I think Seattle is in for a rude awakening once reality sets in.

I like Pete Carroll. I hope he does well in Seattle.
 
the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result...Jets,Pats..and now the Hawks...he's STILL the same Pete Carroll...that "golly gee let's have some fun and go get 'em" style works fine at the collegiate level..the pros???...not so much
