Braylon Gets First and Third Tender

as per NFL.com

The Jets have extended a contract tender to WR Braylon Edwards at the first- and third-round level, NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora has confirmed. The move, which was expected, means that Edwards is expected to make more than $5 million this season, which is 110 percent of his $4.55 salary from 2009.

Well I think that guarantees Braylon will be a Jets next year. I don't see any team giving up a pair of early picks in this Draft and a contract the Jets won't match for a guy with that kind of baggage both on the field and in terms of drops. Not to mention it's been 2 years since he put up big numbers.

I'm down with this. The Jets can either work out a reasonable deal or have him sign the tender and play out a contract year. The raw talent is high, and I think he could be in for a big year with Mark Sanchez maturing. If some other team steps up, I'd probably let him walk. Yes, it would create a hole, but this year's Draft is very deep. It would be trading one quality player for two.

I hope we keep him

This year he should know all of are plays and most likely there will be plays built just for him but we need more depth in the WR department, hopefully we can get a steal at WR, DE,or CB somewhere in draft I still cant figure why they are not using all of the WR’s “Clowney”

Looking forward to seeing Braylon next year, think he is going to have a very big 2010…..

Also not a chance anyone offers him this. So he will be back

Make or break year

With the price too steep, Edwards will remain a Jet at least for this year. And this creates a real opportunity for him to have a solid season. I think we’d all like to see him have that type of year and beat the demons in his past, not the least of which are the drops.

He should be a go-to receiver with his size and agility, so I think we’re all looking forward to his numbers improving.

well, I ‘ve said it before, I would have tendered Braylon a first rounder and hope someone bit, kinda like the Broncos are doing with Marshall. I think its pretty clear that Marshall, despite his crap, is a far better wr than edwards. So, in a sense it looks like the Jets have overvalued Edwards relative to his actual market value. Wr is probably the most overrated position anyway, and has even less value on a team with the Jets ground and pound philosophy. I also would have secured Leon with a first round tender, he’s far more valuable to the team, and the leg injury he’s coming off of isnt as bad as some seem to think it is. Hope Braylon learns to catch cause he’s not going anywhere this year.
