Jets interested in Betts?

I guess I just lost a buck...to MYSELF.

ArtMonkDrillz · 08-11-2006, 02:38 PM

Gimme a liter'a cola

TheMalcolmConnection · 08-11-2006, 02:39 PM

We don't sell liters here.

ArtMonkDrillz · 08-11-2006, 02:42 PM

It's French for 'gimme my f'in cola before I vous F'in' lip!"

I don't think anyone would give a 2nd for Ladell Betts.

ArtMonkDrillz · 08-11-2006, 02:52 PM

they're probably pretty damn desperate, but I have to agree with you. Especially since it looks like someone like Chris Brown (who I swear runs like a ballerina) and/or Thomas Jones might be shopped around soon.

Let's snap back to reality for just a minute. A first round offer for Betts isn't going to happen. It's just not going to happen.

A second round offer is almost as improbable. There are more proven backs out there (Thomas Jones) that could be had.

Now we're talking about a third round, and I think that's the absolute best we could hope for, but I don't even see that happening.

This trade simply isn't going to happen.

We are not looking to trade betts in the first place so why would we just settle for a third. We have the chips in our favor to ask what we want so a second is not unreasonable

Exactly...Betts will be backing up C-Po.

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 08-11-2006, 03:38 PM

I wouldn't trade Betts for anything less than a 1st rounder which, as has been noted, is a pipe dream. We're too close, on paper at least, to the "big game" to trade a starting-caliber tailback for anything less.

BDBohnzie · 08-11-2006, 03:39 PM

"Desperation is a stinky cologne" and the Jets are fairly desperate.

offiss · 08-11-2006, 05:28 PM

what I would take in return for Betts is, 12 ski mask's, a case of smoke bomb's the good kind, and banana peels, lot's of banana peels.
