Our Best Defensive Player Now Gone



The Jets tranded John Abraham to the Atlanta Falcons for the 29th pick in this year's draft after Atlanta traded their #15 overall pick to for Denver's first round pick (#29) and some middle round picks in this years and next years draft. Now what I don't understand is why didn't we offer some middle round picks and Abraham for the #15 overall pick if Atlanta was willing to trade it away. I'd much rather have the #15 than the #29 right?

I'm still pissed how this Abraham thing played out. This guy, when on the field, is a monster. Why does Ellis get the long term deal and Abraham kept on getting screwed? This guy is the heart of the defense when he is in there. A long term deal for Abe should have happened a long time ago and now we get a #29 for him? What will drive me bananas is if we pacakage this pick with ours to move up from #4 to #2. Now that we have the pick, we better USE it to get some youth on this team.
