I am a JETS fan and JETS traded Rhodes:
1. He doesn't really fit well in Ryan's defense. In Ryan's defense, safeties need to tackle well, in run support. But Rhodes routinely avoids tackling.
2. He had an issue with a couple of defensive coaches. And the JETS wanted to get rid of him.
3. After 2007 season, JETS extended his contract, since then, he didn't play well as he had been. He is more concerned about modeling and being in the movies.
in my opinion, he is an above average player, but needs to play in a scheme where he roams.
