Dexter Morgan Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 The Jets have reached out to the camp of free-agent cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, according to two people informed of the communication between the sides. These people requested anonymity because they are not authorized to speak for either side.Asomugha, a star in Oakland, is the most coveted cornerback in this year's free agency class.Paying for Asomugha may be a challenge for the Jets, who have Darrelle Revis under contract for $7 million this season plus an $18 million option bonus. But never say never with the Jets, who have to be enticed by the potential lockdown duo of Asomugha and Revis. They are also known for doing their due diligence.It's not clear how strong the Jets' interest is. On their list of their own free agents is Antonio Cromartie, who played well opposite Revis last year. Earlier today, the team contacted Cromartie.Earlier today, ESPN reported that Asomugha might be willing to take less money to play for a contender, and that he would be interested in going somewhere where he could work on his intended post-playing career, acting. New York would fit both categories.http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/201...nt_corner.htmlFor months, Jets receiver Santonio Holmes has been speculated to be the team's top free agent target.Now, on the first day of free agency, the Jets have extended an offer to Holmes, according to a person with knowledge of the negotiations. That person requested anonymity because of the tenuous nature of negotiations.Terms of the offer were not immediately available. The timing is interesting, as news came soon after receiver Santana Moss reportedly agreed to a 3-year, $15 million deal with the Redskins, according to ESPN. Washington was expected to be one of the teams in hot pursuit of Holmes, with the potential to price other teams out.Earlier today, a person with knowledge of the Jets' plans said fellow Jets free agent receiver Braylon Edwards was still in play for the team, in case it was priced out of the Holmes sweepstakes. That person requested anonymity because they are not authorized to speak for the team.http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2011/07/jets_extend_offer_to_free_agen.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rams80 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Yeah, the Lambs will be blundering... But not to a division title. If it makes you feel better, rams80, the Lambs will be no more better this year then last year (which is to say, 2nd fiddle behind Seattle).If only one of Seattle's 3 QBs posed a credible passing threat.

We will see if Gore and Jackson have more great years in them. As for Arizona, even Kolb is MILES better then Derek Anderson. They could even snatch the West back this year.

rainmaker17 Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 I know Dallas overpaid for Roy Williams, but I think letting him go was a huge mistake. The Cowboys go from having one of the most talented receiving corps in the league, to being simply average. ...and God forbid if Dez or Miles gets hurt. Roy is a local guy who wanted to be there, so why couldn't Dallas restructure his deal?Barber I get. Brown and Columbo, I get. Williams and Davis, not so much.Oh, and to all the know-it-all clowns that are popping corks all over the Dallas Morning News comment section: Be careful what you wish for.

NEW.ERA Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Looks like McNabb to the Vikings for a 2012 6th Rounder and possibly a 2013 6th. The deal hinges on McNabb taking a big pay cut. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is such a lost cause he shouldn't have gotten a contract to serve peanuts in the stands of Candlestick, let alone a spot on the roster. And I do feel that when it's all said and done, Kaepernick will end up as the starter and will be one of the best value picks to come out of this year's draft. I saw it live with my own two eyes several times, that dude can flat out ball. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

epper Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Bills signed QB Tyler Thigpen to backup Fitzpatrick this year. Love the signing.

Island_Style Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 You know what pisses me off?

Mings Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 This is Mike Brown we are talking about. He can screw you, but he won't let you screw him. To be honest though Carson had a hissy fit after the season ended and said trade me or I'm retiring. It was partly his fault last year went so poorly.
