Chiefs Bowe to be traded? (rumor, calm down) - Page 3

Jets targeting Brandon Marshall, Dwayne Bowe?

Posted by Mike Florio on August 19, 2009 7:32 AM ET
Apparently, Jets coach Rex Ryan has stopped talking long enough to realize that his team has yet to find a capable replacement for receiver Laveranues Coles.

And so the Jets, per Rich Cimini of the New York Daily News, have had preliminary discussions with a few teams regarding a trade for a veteran wideout.

According to Cimini, the biggest name on the team's radar is Broncos receiver Brandon Marshall. Though the Broncos have shown no willingness to trade Marshall, the relationship between player and team is tenuous, to say the least. That said, Marshall has way too many question marks hovering over his career, both on and off the field.

Cimini also floats the name of Chiefs receiver Dwayne Bowe as a possible target, but we can't imagine Kansas City trading one of their only quality players -- cough . . . Tony Gonzalez . . . cough.

As Cimini points out, Jets G.M. Mike Tannebaum has a reputation for making deals late in the preseason. Still, it's difficult for a receiver to make an impact in a new offense without the benefit of participating in the offseason program and training camp.

But it nevertheless looks like something could be happening. And that's good news for the Jets, because beyond Jerricho Cotchery the team doesn't have many quality targets for rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez.

When he's a free agent? He's gone.

Is he worth twice as much as Bowe? He hasn't played a full season 4 of 6 of his years in the NFL.

Given Pioli's hatred of the Jets, I doubt they deal with NY.

Reminds me of being at the Hall of Fame a few weeks ago. Met my first group of Jets fans that were actually from NY. Ya know the stereotype of the "So I says to him, I says..." guy from NY? That was all the Jets fans.

As far as the Bowe Show goes, it's not going anywhere unless we get a ridiculous return or a Boldin-type WR in return. Seeing as how neither of those are likely to happen, I'm pretty sure Bowe stays.

it sounds like this guy is reaching here. He figures Bowe is in the dog house, so they want to trade him. But i dont think that it at all, i think we are just being hard on Bowe to max his talent.

Is Andre Johnson worth twice as much as Bowe? he has only played fully in 4 out of 6 also
Larry Fitzgerald has only played a full season is 3 out his 5
Marques Colston has played 1 full season out of 3
Steve smith has played a full season in 2 out his 8 years

and all of those guys are way better than bowe

Did that come from WPI NY *special victim unit"?

You think Boldin and Johnson are way better than Bowe?

If you think Bowe isn't a very impressive receiver, you really need to stop being dumb.

What makes Marques Colston WAY better than Bowe?

Colston has better numbers through 2 years (2,240 yards and 19 touchdowns) than Bowe (2,017 yards and 12 touchdowns) but the numbers are not so much better that he should be considered a WAY better receiver, especially when Drew Brees>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Damon Huard, Brodie Croyle, Tyler Thigpen. Hell Lance Moore had similar stats to Bowe last year and I guarantee he isn't half the receiver that Bowe is.

Johnson just finished his 6th season. Bowe finished his second with Herm as a head coach and having two different coordinators in his first two seasons.

Bowe first two years:
Rec: 156
Yards: 2017
TD: 12

Johnson first two years:
Rec: 145
Yards 2118
TD: 10
