Trade Idea involving Jets

If they keep doing what they're doing then why does it matter?

It's not my money, and they don't spend it properly anyways when they have those two on lower salaries.

If we didn't have the lousy track record of this front office roster bolstering moves.  I'd consider you thoughts...  but it is what it is.

Being competitive and falling flat on their faces is only slightly better than not being competitive to me personally.

I mean we used to be able to walk around and say "At least we're not the Browns and year in and out we're not bottom dwellers."

Not to get too much into that certain subject, but the best satisfaction I've had with this franchise is knocking the Steelers & Ravens out of the playoffs occasionally.

The rest of the time they just break my damn heart.

That's kinda sad.

My point is my confidence level is way down.  The saying "One in the hand is better than two in the bush." comes to mind.

AJ is an elite WR(especially for our kind of team)that most draft experts would have bet their house to be a surefire NFL wide receiver and Dalton is kind of dumb luck, because even though he hasn't won in the post-season I could truly see this team floundering with QB picks just like the Browns did.

Watching Dalton I feel like he could be average/below average or play like Russell Wilson and be good enough to win in the post-season or SB.

The whole team pretty much laid an egg under Marvin for so many years it makes things so much cloudier in my opinion.
