Guess you missed football last season. Time to catch up before this season starts. Edwards dropped ONE PASS ALL OF LAST SEASON.

larryfitzgerald4mvp :

Kerry Rhodes had a great season?????? Are you out of your mind? I guess I can tell by your username you are a cardinals fan which would explain your ridiculous assessement. I guess picking up fumbles laying there for a walk in td makes a good defensive player. Every time I see him play hes getting run over by a running back or shying away from any type of contact whatsoever. He has a ton of talent, he just doesnt care anymore since he got paid already. The guy was atrocious last year (except for a few sexy plays which you equate with having a good season). In my book good defensive players to start with at least have to want to tackle opponents.

Rhodes has good range in coverage, tackles like my grandmother, and has no interest in helping in run support. But yea, he had a great season. I wonder how the cardinals defense was so bad last year then?

Some teams are exceptions of course with your Packers being one of them! Im just saying there are many talent lacking teams out there where Cro and Edwards would be instant upgrades to their wr’s or cb’s. Too bad this salary cap floor rule doesn’t go into affect until 2013, it gives the cheap ass teams a couple of more seasons to be cheap (ala TB, KC, SF, CINCYS of the world)

Why the Jets ever thought this guy was worth a @#$% is beyond me. I’m surprised the Jets didn’t want to keep him though….. in spite of their Rex Ryan self generated hype, they are not very smart.

Isn’t Diva a common characteristic of many Jet’s players?

He might be a diva, but if your team signed him I’m SURE you’d be happy! Period! The same with Cromartie, better than 80% of the players playing in this league at their position
******************************************

Not hardly. I’m more than happy with Jennings, Driver, Jones, Cobb and basically Finely catching the passes from Aaron. Can’t see where this choad would be better than that….

Cleveland said the same thing when the J-O-K-E-S traded for him…Now they’re saying he’s a diva with that pedo Dirty Sanchez under center, Santonio “Sir-Tokes-A-Lot” Holmes, Darrell Revis, Bart Scott and that buffet killer Rex Ryan still on board…and they’re throwing jabs and diva stones at ANYBODY?! Who are they to claim anybody a diva? GTFO with that noise

“The Jets also said that Kerry Rhodes was a diva, and he had a great season in AZ ”

If Kerry Rhodes made one tackle last year it would’ve been an improvement over what he did his final season in NY. He was a diva who wouldn’t make the hard hit.

—————————————-

Weird….they traded for Antonio “Don’t hurt me Shonn Greene” Cromartie.

It took the Jets this long to realize he is a diva… wow they are really sharp in NY.

Would you rather give Edwards a five-year deal for $45M or bring in Burress for one year at $3M?

Plaxico may be a diva like Edwards, but he’s a third of the price.

I think Braylon gets a bad rap…He just doesn’t know when to keep his mouth shut. On a positive note, he does do alot of charity work. I know that he paid for college for alot of inner city cleveland kids this past year, keeping his promise. I am a browns fan and was glad to see him go. Dude was so afraid to get his ass rocked on every play he would drop every other pass that was thrown to him. Seemed to make the acrobatic catches tho.

Diva???……I think Turd is more accurate. But hey, they fixed that by signing Plaxico.

“DIVA”
that is the word I have been blogging about this guy for months.
I feel validated because he is.
He’s the high maintenance girlfriend who doesn’t have ANY faults, but can’t keep a guy (team).
“DIVA”
I feel so good.
I do wish her well though.

Who cares if he was a diva??? He just had possibly the strongest season of the career and played awesome in the playoffs.

As a clear #2 on the Cardinals, with his market being soft, and he possibly even being a 3rd option in the offense, he will be less “diva”. A short (2 yr) contract could be a win-win. Now, if we can get him to grow some dreads…

You are such a homer buddy. Open up your eyes! Rex is a clown, and his luck is about to run out.

Wait a minute, you think you need to look to off-field reasons why noone is interested?! Let’s look on the field. When he catches the ball he’s an amazing talent, and he has a knack for getting open. And when he does, he catches almost half the balls that hit him in the hands, and those that don’t hit him in the hands he may reach for if it’s not too much work. The problem is he drops more balls than Roy Williams, and he doesn’t work to get the ball. He maks an occasionally amazing grab, and is hard to tackle. But that is worthless if he can’t catch the ones that hit him in the numbers. I wish the JETS would resign the guy to distract Sanchez from better options…

maybe when he signs with a new team he’ll “drop” the diva act like he does every ball thrown his way.
