He held out past a certain date which invoked a 3 game suspension clause to go on top of his current 3 game NFL suspension

something along those lines

Oh yeah I forgot about that, I thought the NFL tacked 3 more on for something

Are you saying that his contract includes a 3 game suspension?

If that is the case, then if he gets traded that will likely go out the window - as the new team will write a new contract.

NO, its 6 games now. That is official. Not sure of the wording or exact rule, but any team that trades for him will onl have him for 10 games.

So the NFL has a rule that any player that holds out gets a 3 game suspension?

100% correct, It has something to do with the list they put him on

Jets cut FB Tony Richardson

Lions claimed Stephan Logan KR/PR

That makes sense. "Suspension clause" kind of threw me off here.

Houston is talking with Leinart

Jets lockeroom and players are pissed I guess that Richardson is gone. Start the mutiny now!

No Richardson, No Coles, No Revis.....but hey they got Patrick Turner! All is well. lol lol

i like that mikeo i hope there lockeroom stays that way too.

The Jets locker room will implode just from the conflict of egos...it is only a matter of time.

Revis is back. 4 year deal. Around $32 mill guarnteed.

They will say its a 7 year deal, but its voided after 4 so its really a 4 year deal.

He said the Vikings have to hit New Orleans on Thursday night like KATRINA if they want to win

OUCH!

Jets are re-signing FB Tony Richardson today.

They heard the rumblings of the lockeroom and knew that move didn't go over well with the players, so they are bringing him back.

Hoosh to the Ravens

Its funny all these teams so scared of us there out signing EVERYONE!!! MWHAHAHAHAHA

They're not scared. They just have no respect for our front office. They think we can't evaluate talent and that everyone we let go is actually good enough to play for them. I don't know where to go with that, actually.

The 2 roster moves that really bothered me from them the past 72 hours are.... One, not waiting on Will Allen, we could have held 1 roster spot for him for a month and then see where he stood. If it wasn't looking promising then IR him. What was the rush? To pick up scrubs from the Browns/Seahawks?! Second, we probably should have held onto Grant or Douglas. At least one of them. Have an experienced vet on this d-line and defense in general. Don't care which one, but keep one of them.

The David Martin thing doesn't bother me too much. Because I was shocked anyone picked him up and I believe the Fins were shocked too. And I firmly believe Buffalo will drop him at some point and we will scoop him back up on a non-guarnteed deal. The Donald Thomas thing I can live with since this kid from Dallas we picked up can play both Tackle and Guard, so we got some flexiblity there. Looking back on it I have changed my tune on that move and that move I can live with. The Nate Ness thing annoys me, but doesn't bother me. If Clemons sucks though (which I don't think he will, but IF he does) then the Ness thing will bother me!! lol

Just Smiley starting in Jacksonville.

Looks like Jax just let him pretty much do nothing in the preseason and saved him for Week 1

He will be in Minn bank on it.

Guess who has the number 1 defense in the NFL as of week 1?

The Miami Dolphins!

Enjoy it while we can I guess...lol
