A possible good fit for the Jets at WR
Due to a glut at the WR position the Eagles are said to
possibly be interested in moving WR Reggie Brown to
help clear a roster spot.
The 28 year old Brown is 6-1 200lbs and is entering his
fifth season in the NFL and has been a steady player for
most of his career in Philly. In his rookie 2005 season
Brown played in all 16 games and caught 43 balls good
for 571 yds and 4 TD's.
In 2006 Brown became a deep threat in the Philly offense
catching 46 passes for 816 yards, a 17.7YPC average to
go along with 8 TD's. In 2007 Brown caught 61 balls for
780 yards and 4 TD's. Last season Brown saw his playing
time decreased and played in only 10 games, catching just
18 passes for 254 yds and one TD.
Brown would certainly fit into the Jets WR rotation and has
the ability and speed to possibly be a decent #2 WR. He is
young and would not cost the Jets much either in terms of
compensation or in salary. At worst Brown could become a
hold the fort type player until the Jets can properly address
their WR position next season and would provide a valuable
insurance policy just in case this current group of Clowney,
Wright, Stuckey, Smith and Henry cannot produce a #2 type
WR to play alongside Cotchery.
He isn't the player Marshall is but he's also not as big of a risk
in terms of overall compensation and cost. If he can be gotten
for a conditional or lower round draft pick he's probably worth
taking a look see.
The more bullets in the chamber the better the chances are of
hitting the target when you take aim and shoot.

We dont need more competition at #2 unless we are satisfied our current guys aren't it.

Maybe, but the same thing that Rex said yesterday to QBs (refering to getting Ainge in there in a 3 way competition) probably applies to most positions. At some point, its tough to have a [WR] competition when you have 7 or 8 people vying for one spot, because its hard to get them all the ball in a game like situation, especially against the 1st defense playing with the 1st offense. that’s not to say I disagree with you, but evaluating our current talent has been difficult (put Clowney with the 1sts already!!!!) without bringing in other question marks for the 2nd slot.
The only way to settle this quickly is to either bring in a clear #1 and move Cotchery to #2, or allow the current competition between Stuckey, Clowney and Wright to come to conclusion. If we are sure none of those 3 can be an every-down WR, then we should pursue another possible #2 and cut the guy at the end of the list.

better possible fit?
i think the jets should consider marvin harrison. im not sure if they’ve thought about it or made any announcements regarding interest in him but i think an old vet like him could prove useful to the developement of Sanchez. You can count on him to be a great route-runner unlike pretty much all of the WR’s the Jets are considering for the #2 spot. Since nobody seems to be interested in Harrison im sure they could pull off a 1 or 2 year deal so i dont think there would be any financial restrictions with signing him. and clearly any of his legal problems wouldnt make a difference to the organization based on their previous interests in plax and marshall. at worst he would provide knowledge for the younger recievers and help them step their game up. i know hes no longer that guy guarenteed to get 100 rec and 1000 yards but i dont think he so washed up that a 60 rec season is out of the qquestion. He knows how to get open better than practically every reciever in the game and im pretty sanchez would love to throw him the ball.
thoughts?
What the Hell?!
What about Marvin Harrison? If we were willing to pay Brett Farve $12 million for one year why can’t we pay Mr.Harrison to be on our field just to leave are other recievers wide open for Dirty Sanchez to open up on any defense we face. Let the good lord bless the NEW YORK JETS! AMEN
