Cromartie cut

Correct move , the prudent move, the only move. Now we move on with our younger players. All the crazy talk about him being back can be put to rest

pretty much a no brainer move given his contract.

can't 100% rule out a return, but it would have to be at a greatly reduced price. not that it's likely, just possible, although i'd be fine just moving on and going with younger guys

With Skrine and Williams on the roster, younger and probably as good or better, this was absolutely an essential roster move.

anything is possible..

but even if he were to return at the veteran's minimum it would for depth certainly not as a starter.. my thoughts anyway..

with all of that being said, i hope we move foward without cromartie..

It opens up some playing time for Milliner, and we can see if it is time to write him off as an injury riddled bust or whether there is something to salvage. I am not ready to write him off yet.

Plus I think it opens up $8MM in salary cap space.

seems bowles has seen enough.. milliner didn't take a single snap the last 8 games of last season..

Saving 8 mill with no dead cap money for Cro. The easiest decision Mac will ever have to make.

Wonder if Breno could be next in saving 3M+. He's probably serviceable enough to keep around at 4M but in my eye's the worst of the offensive line starters. Now to get D'bricks number down.

The money was a reason, and so was his uneven performance last season. He'll be 32 next season, and might start a slow decline moving forward. I think the Jets have enough depth to make this decision anyway. Williams can start opposite Revis. And I'm not giving up on Dee Milliner just yet. Although he cannot get hurt again next season for any extended amount of time.

if cutting giacomini would save 3+ million IMO, it's a matter of when, not if we cut bait..

Thats guaranteed to happen.

Opening salvo on the march to $50M in cap room.
That $8M is 1/4th of the amount needed to hit that $50M, given a bump of $10M or so in the cap already.
Hate to be the one reminding JFU posters but, isn't this EXACTLY what NostraHYATT™ predicted was going to happen, just last week?

No brainer by Mac.

Cro played well later on in the year but the savings of $8 million were too much to pass up on. We can definitely upgrade at this position.

Wow.... What an incredible prediction. What's next? Is the sun gonna rise tomorrow?

Yep.
Check back to see if NostraHYATT™ is still scoring 100%.

It's just HYATT™'s way of reminding people they REALLY shouldn't take issue with the less obvious stuff he posts.
It's not that HYATT™ minds being questioned - always happy to explain the reasoning - but it DOES take up a lot of extra time when people refuse to believe the obvious and have to have it spelled out.

Upgrade may be a bit of an overstatement.
UFA CBs don't grow on trees, for free, and Cro still has good football left in him.
Better use of the money or nearly as good for less money - which is what HYATT™ believes you meant, Elias - that HYATT™ agrees with.

i don't know man, he'll be 32 next season & seems to be breaking down physically..

bad combo for a guy that makes his money on his freakish athletic ability..

Yeah, and on top of that he has a chronic hip, that really messes him up when it flairs. It's been getting more consistent the last 3 years.. One out of three ain't good.

Shame, kind of liked Cro. Maybe he'll be back about $6M cheaper. And maybe not
