michael_33 Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 The way Coles is making it sound,it's as if they don't wanna anny up for their top player and playmaker. If they don't want him,will take him off their hands. http://www.ctnow.com/sports/football/jets/ny-sbjets103166187mar10,0,2984826.story?coll=ny%2Djets%2Dprint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eparadox Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Coles said the owner he spoke with - OK, Snyder - told him he planned to front-load the deal with a so-called "poison pill." That means it would carry a huge cap figure the first year, probably more than $6 million, making it difficult for the Jets to match. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 The Jets could be burned by the decision to tender Coles a one-year, $1.3-million offer instead of $1.8 million, which would have required a first- and a third-round pick as compensation. Then again, nothing seems to stop Snyder from raiding the Jets. Ok, who gets the 1st and 3rd rounders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golgo-13 Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Nice artilce, thanks. Sounds like Coles is really poisoning the well with the Jets. With him badmouthing them that much, it makes it all the less likely that that they will resign him IMHO. Good news for us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" Actually, NFL rules would have stopped us, since our 3rd rounder was too low after changing spots with the Pats. :laugh: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Good thing there isnt unrestrained free agency otherwise he'd be called Danny Steinbrenner :laugh: But its obvious he is relying on his old school corporate Raiduh skillz this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 again, the Jets did a poor job of gauging free agency. they thought no one would offer their restricted players a decent offer and it blew up on them big time. Coles is an emerging star and should never have been left exposed as the season ended. Heck if I were the Jets and had cap problems I would have shopped Santana Moss around for a trade instead of letting Coles sit out there for the taking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchogs Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 looking at the rookie avatar is scaring me a bit. hopefully the jets don't get us back by picking up ramsey in the future and putting him back in the green 7...:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyDave Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Well I'm waiting until he is officially a skin before :laugh: :laugh: at the Jets FO but then again even we dont get him they will have to pay for keeping him and that would be with their deals for Abraham and co in 2k4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdsknbill Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I have a question here on this deal and RFA's. IF the staus of a RFA gives the team a chance to match the offer, and they don't, how does the league determine compensation. I guess what I'm asking here is if the Falcons gave up the 23rd pick for Price, who was franchised, why do we have to give up our 13th to sign a RFA? The Jets have the opportunity to match the offer, it they don't, the hell with them and they shouldn't get our first rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
