Great Oline and Special teams, extra 20M in cap space for FA, maybe avoid Revis holdout

Where do you get the extra cap space

That's an interesting statement considering early in the year teammates and coaches were actually touting Sanchez as a top ten QB. Interesting also how Newsome can get away with trashing 7 teams Qb situation and get away with it.

He also needs to study grammar!

It's funny how the Jets fan base loved the refreshening honesty of Wrecks....but when a GM makes a blanket statement that we all know is 100% accurate, how dare he. Love the "victim" mentality. Ask Momma to come down to the basement and console you from those harsh words from that meanie Ozzie.

That's not good enough for him, he feels the need to rub Rex's face in it? There is obviously some unresolved issue here under the surface - that bothers Ozzie a lot more than Rex. He can't graciously be a winner and end it there? Oh and all them GM's with that pisspoor grammar - you sound like a moron.

How is he "rubbing Rex's face in it"? If anything he's making excuses on behalf of his former colleagues (fellow GM's) who weren't fortunate enough to have a franchise QB.
And he's right. These guys don't grow on trees.
