I am with Joey on this one. In the Holmes case, it was literally a bag of chips in relationship to what they received. You have to look at the contract situation in this.

Holmes's contract is over after this year. They don't have to pay a signing bonus. There is no big potential cap hit. He is signed for 755k this year, the league minimum for a 5th year player!

755k and a 5th rounder for a 26 year old in his prime for 12 games and the playoffs? Thats not even a bag chips. Thats like a single pringle.

The early schedule is brutal. If they can get to the bye at .500 they will be in great shape.

The Jets were hardly the juggernaut that they are made out to be. They had a nice little run but the league will catch up to fatboys schemes. That offense is still pretty offensive

I don't know Chuck. Any way you cut it, that defense is going to be tough to score against. They have speed outside on offense and they have a line that blocks run with any team in the league.

I think they will be good. My only fear for them would be regression at QB. Soph QB's often regress. Even if he did, though, I think you could put a game managing type in there and they would still make the playoffs.

Sanchez had a QB rating of 62. He cant possibly regress from that.
