Manziel? Asking for Manziel is like asking for herpes...why? You can trade nothing and get Tebow if you want a disaster at QB.

You are a true believer. In Milliner and Geno. Keep the optimism.
I wouldn't want Manziel anywhere near this team.
He would be Tim Tebow x2 as far as the media circus is concerned.
And his mental state is still in question; not to mention I still believe he is too small to withstand the NFL pounding as a scrambling QB.
LOL!!
I know he's a train-wreck, but he's a gifted train-wreck.
Maybe he pulls a Cris Carter, gets his act together, and we get lucky.
Im optimistic for them also.
Look guys, I know Manziel is radioactive, I was just tossing out an idea. :waving-white-flag:
LOL, actually I'm am in Milliner but not in Geno. I'm just very hopeful and optimistic Geno will improve this year with a much better team, coaching and management that is like ten times better then what we had before. It appears were stuck with Geno anyway, so why be optimistic and be in the kids corner. If I can do it for that God awful Sanchez for three and a half to four years, then I can do it for Geno for three years. If Geno doesn't improve then so be it but I do believe Milliner will be very good and should not be traded.
Note: This was actually in response to Jet Setter.
Would have to pass on Manziel entirely. I am not a fan of Bradford either. I always thought he was VERY overrated as a prospect as an NFL QB. I think Fitzpatrick would put up comparable numbers to Bradford in the Jet offense.
The last thing we need to do is trade for a QB that can't stay on the field and move down 14 spots in the draft to do it.
Milliner, I have been very critical of his play. But, as a 4th CB it is worth seeing whether he develops. If the Jets wanted to hypothetically package Milliner and their 2nd round pick to move back into the late first round, fine. I'm all for it.
boooo!!!!!
hate that idea. manzeil will not be a successful nfl QB. i want nothing to do with johnny football. i wouldn't trade a 7th round pick for him (ok, maybe a 7th...)
Okay okay, I get the message, bad idea :smiley-violent001:
Well, as has been noted, his value is lower due to injury. So I think the better question is "would you trade Milliner for his current market value"?
And my answer is "HELL NO".

If Milliner increases his value by staying healthy and playing well then he would be worth more to the Jets. He is still our most experienced and talented backup outside corner...and he'll be learning and pushed by Revis and Cro. I don't believe the Jets are shopping him, too young, too talentedn and inexpensive at a premium position.
If the team isn't sold on Miliner's talent, go ahead and shop him.
If they aren't sold on his health, I'd hold off.
Too many players have had early injuries, only to go on to productive careers.
And (knock on wood) our current CBs have also had to deal with injuries in the past, while no longer being youngsters who can bounce back as quickly -- depth is VITAL to this team and I'm not ready to give it up so easily . . .
Great point, OCCH.
Depth is important when you've got two starting CB's that will be 30 and 31 next year. Revis and Cromartie are fantastic players, but I'd feel better leaving Skrine in the slot if, God forbid, someone got hurt. If Milliner is 100% healthy, I think he's the next man up. And that's not a bad option. I certainly don't want to see the team give up so early on such a talented player. Especially for a mid round pick. That could potentially blow up in our faces if NE or Miami got him, and he turned into a really good player. Mehta wouldn't be able to restrain himself from telling everyone how stupid Macc was for making that move.
And around here? I can only imagine what would be written. :scarface-smiley-emo
+1 GREAT POST. If we trade Milliner for Johnny Manziel I'll officially become a Carolina Panther fan ! The idiot is in a friggin REHAB and Milliner is a 22 year old CB with All-Pro potential. Johnny Football ! :smiley-angry046:
Go Jets...Cyborg
Trade a guy in rehab for another guy constantly rehabbing....
Swap useless for useless.
I'd rather have Milliner because I never saw anything in Manziel at all. That street game he plays does not work in the NFL at all...
If the Jets traded for Manziel, i'd end up in rehab.
