Its been a bit of a struggle at times this year with dropped catches etc but how many teams have a set up that allows so many players to get big yards?.
Three players close to 1000yards and barring injuries they would have all got there IMO.

I'd keep Henderson if the money is right.
I think he will stay as Meachem has shown the grass isn't greener elsewhere and I don't see many teams offering much more than the Saints will.
It will be interesting to see what Toon and bring next year.

"Two receivers to the left, Garcon to the right. Manning in the shotgun, puts Collie in motion. Looks in his direction...it's picked off! It's picked off! It's Tracy Porter again! He's runnin' free! He's gonna go all the way!

Steve has dropped off the map that all. he could be had for a good price and be a great #2/3 WR.

all our WR miss two to three games every year.

so if a player like him is out there and he wants to go to a team that lets him show off his skill set for next year i say go for it.

I am always looking to upgrade lol

We still need to add a FA cornerback added to that group...

I get Porter had declined; but we still should have added to that group...

Greer is now 30; most CB not named Darrell Green tend to drop off significantly at that age...

The whole league needs Corners ... they're going to be a hot commodity. The key is not to overpay for marginal talent, like Tampa Bay did with Eric Wright.

Nnamdi may take the home-state discount and want to be with a winner whereby he could contribute...

I can see that possibly having potential but would we be able to take on that contract.....but I think he would work well with an ACTUAL Defensive Coordinator that knows how to use him (pretty much put him on the right side and keep him there)

Revis always wants to be paid.
More trouble than he is worth IMO.
The talent is obviously there but the man thinks nothing of honouring his contract.
Rugby Saint II and K Major like this.

Jets just suck at every aspect....I honestly think he was trying to hold out in the offseason because he knew where they were headed and wanted to force them to trade him. Not the best way to go about it but its a way.....the Jets are in a get out while you can situation man...I would try to get out too. I think a change of scenery would be good for him. Pretty much anywhere that has a competent QB in his case.... But right now we can't afford him with the contract he's already on anyway so...
