Mike FF Today 608 Posted March 13, 2014 The Jets are a very WR needy team so this deal makes some sense on the field , but I agree, his fantasy value won't reflect his No. 1 wideout status. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edjr 5,567 Posted March 13, 2014 Sort of an admission by Decker that it's all about the money. Â yeah but we all know that. Â Have to strike while the iron is hot. Â I hope he slides Manning a few million on the side, he earned it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 5,893 Posted March 13, 2014 Â yeah but we all know that. Â Â It's always mostly about the money, but when you go from Manning and the Broncos to Geno and the Jets you're basically saying you don't care if you never have a good season again as long as you're even more rich.

TheFantasyFootballSow 5 Posted March 13, 2014 He was a third round pick playing out a rookie contract right? It's not like he's flush - he's been underpaid for two years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you really blame him? Dude had an opportunity to cash in beyond what he ever could've imagined before Peyton came to town. Â He would've been a fool not to take it. Â And c'mon, it's not the Raiders or Jaguars we're talking about. Jets went to back to back AFCCG just a few years ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 14, 2014 Ok, Jet fan chiming in here. I honestly didn't want Decker. Guy runs good routes and all but sometimes has a case of the dropsies. Yeah, he scored 8 TD's with Orton/Tebow (was it orton?) but his value was way inflated by Peyton. He is NOT a #1 WR... and wouldn't be a #1 in most any offense. Yeah, Peyton, Brady, Brees, might make him look like a #1 but most teams would not. Â that said, part of my trepidation was the thought that the Jets might way overspend for him. I think they actually did well. They spent not much more than the Lions did for Golden Tate. 5 year deal for a 26 yr old. Solid deal, imo. Sucks for his fantasy owners but Im actually liking the move. Now the Jets need to use their 1st round pick on one of the many talented rookie WR's coming out and try to strike gold with a legit #1 across from Decker with Kerley in the slot. They could do a lot worse. Â more weapons than they have had since Braylon and Holmes were decent back in 09/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted March 14, 2014 Why do you want to ruin more wrs by going to the jets? The fantasy football fan in you should want the jets to not draft any quality wrs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
