    Edwards, Cromartie and Holmes for two 3s and two 5s. Thats what I call bargain shopping. I feel like the poor kid who's parents refuse to buy him any nice school clothes. :pity:

    This FO spent a third round pick on Patrick Turner a year ago.

    I defended the FO for passing on Anquan b/c of his age/playing style. But not trading a 4th or 5th rounder for Holmes is hard to explain. :no:

    i dont know how the hell the Jets got him so cheap. my only guess is that he has a suspension coming, and the steelers didnt want any part of it.

    He's overrated, he has been ever since he made that catch at the SB. He's a good wr, but he's nothing spectacular.

    79 catches, 1248 yards, 5 TD... 26 years old... FIFTH round pick.

    Whether or not he's overrated is one thing, but if you think you're going to do better in the 4th round this year... end well it will not.

    I think the money aspect is playing a big part of it too plus the suspension. It's still a head scratcher though.

    Darelle Revis via trade
    Mark Sanchez via trade
    Shonn Greene via trade
    Braylon Edwards via trade
    Antonio Cromartie via trade
    Santonio Holmes via trade

    Disagree completely. He's underrated, IMO. A top 15 receiver in this league.

    i cant wait to see how the steelers use that pick. Holmes will start 12 games this year. The guy they draft will probably never start one game in his career.

    If he turns into a Plaxico Burress deal I'll be pissed until he goes to prison. Here's to hoping he follows the route of Antwaan Randle-El.

    Just those guys. :sad:
    Really this just sucks on so many levels. First of all he goes to the Jets for next to nothing and 2nd that we didn't make a better offer. Holmes is easily worth our 4th or perhaps even our 3rd. Tell me one WR we could get in the 3rd that is better than Holmes.

    The official "I'm going to go shoot myself now" thread

    Santonio Holmes to the Jets for a 5th round pick? A 5th round pick? Let's put aside for a moment that's a rediculously low price to pay for such a productive Wide Receiver. But why the hell didn't Miami jump in on that? Are we so oblivious to the need at WR to pass on Holmes for a 5th round pick? Our 5th rounder would have been higher than the Jets. And to the god damn Jets? This couldn't get any worse.

    The Jets are doing this to us deliberately... it's a mind **** to the highest degree... they know we need a wr badly... and here they are acquiring two 1,000 yard receivers for peanuts and bananas...
