    It makes sense that they would have changed the rule because everyone was cheating anyway and some team was always yelling "tampering" and it was almost always impossible to prove. I'm excited about this . Verner is the CB I wanted the Jets to sign since I saw he was a FA.

    Verner paired with Byrd would instantly make this defense top 5. Holy shit that would be incredible.

    Just heard Holmes has been cut too.

    Disregard as I can't confirm it...person I heard it from is usually accurate..maybe not this time.

    I was just about to retract it as I can't confirm it either.

    Actually starting yesterday morning. I agree they probably did start negotiating already and Verner would be a nice pickup although his price tag is going to be between $8-$10mil/year.

    Well according to that rule it started at midnight this morning.

    Edit: you're right. Friday at midnight. So Saturday morning.

    I would take the steelers off the list their cap situation is terrible. I think we have a 50/50 shot at Verner hopefully Rex got on the phone with him and did some smooth talking.

    Idc if Verner costs near $10 million. We need help in our secondary and we have the money to spend it. Corners in Rex's defense are priceless.

    Cromartie isn't coming back. Rex has made a statement wishing him and his family the best and that he was one of the best athletes he's ever coached. Not a sign of him being brought back.

    I'll miss ya Cro! You had some great years with us and really helped us when we needed it! Wish you the best my man!

    I really wished they would have made an attempt to restructure his deal and keep him. I'm still holding out hope he is re signed. I know he had a bad year last year, but I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and believe he played through injury. Cromartie Imo is allot better than people give him credit for. Not worth 10 mill. But he's better than allot of guys if he's healthy

    Byrd is a FS, and yeah I recognize that doesn't answer the question you posed.

    I suspect Allen is the leading candidate to be the Jet's SS moving forward right now but I don't know how the Jets view their options right now.

    Landry.... Allen would assume the SS role which he is most comfortable with, and Byrd would play FS.
