I read the same thing on the Jets board. They said 5-year deal as well, per Schefter.

Bring it on, I say!

Damn, was hoping the skins would steal him. Hopefully they can't afford Edwards too.

Well the delusion that "Don't worry, if the Jets get Asomugha, Sanchez will have to throw to Crotchery as #1, haha"

Damn.... at worst case Holmes and Cotchery isn't bad.

Good move for them assuming they aren't giving him $10 million a year. He bailed them out of a lot of games last year.

They still need a #2 WR. Cotchery sucked last year. They have zero depth too. But that was a good start for them.

Any guesses for the per year amount?? He could have really held them to the fire and worked up the price (if him and his agent wanted to).

I don't know Cotchery has progressively declined over the last three years.

How good of a deal this is depends on how much they're paying him.
Without the March 11th dead money 'bailout' there's no way the Jets could have afforded to keep him.
Nice work commish! *wink* :rolleyes:

My guess is 5 years (we know it is 5 years) at $45 million with $20 million guaranteed. Making it $9 million a year. Just a guess though.

Andre Johnson got slightly over $10 million a year last year. Don't see Holmes making a heck of a lot less. I assume it will be about $1 million less a year.
