I'm already excited about this team, the Holmes addition was just icing on the cake. I also don't understand how him being in the last year of his deal is a negative. There may be a lockout in '11, and to me it's better to have risky players who are playing for new contracts than ones who have a ton of guaranteed money already.

You will be happy with Holmes. He plays hard and blocks well enough to really help the running game. He doesn't pout like Edwards and catches the ball when they throw it to him. They will end up keeping him over Edwards at the end of the year. If Sanchez improves at all and the Jets stay healthy they will be very tough.
