Braylon looks great too. Tabby is a f*cking moron for not bringing him back for peanuts. I just don't get it.
Of course we do not know if REX RYAN was the guy that did not want him on the team. Some delight in blaming Tannenbaum but we do not have all the facts. Could be HOLMES did not like Braylon and Rex sided with Santonio because he is "his" guy! I am sure that in time we will learn the truth. I wanted Braylon back LAST year and this year. Oh well....!

I really liked him coming into the draft and was hoping the Jets would take a shot at him in the middle rounds.

Many of the draft "experts" were saying he was a 5th round guy... so I wasn't expecting him to get picked so early.

He has everything you want in a QB, besides size. I think he'll be an above average starter in the NFL for a long time.

As a huge NC STATE fan, I am happy for Wilson. he has it. As An NC state fan I as so pissed State couldn't figure it out.

NC STATE = NY JETS.

Is there an overwhelming support or very vocal cries of disagreement from the players when he wasn't re-signed? I don't recall that.

The guy was a great Jet. Probably not a great teammate in the locker room. I disagree with not bringing him back, but the guy probably annoyed almost everyone in the locker room.
