Bowe to be traded? (rumor, calm down)

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.

The fool who "remixed" the original used rap. And destroyed it. Completely.

I tell you who's opinion actually counts for something here - Bowe's. And he loved it.

I just don't see the logic in your choice of music. Even if you aren't a fan of popular music, most of it fits a lot better then the stuff you pick out. Put aside your arrogance for the sake of making a more entertaining video.

I agree Claytan the music you play on those videos suck.

Dude, that isn't rap. Its an instrumental. And of course Bowe loved it. WTF else is he going to say about a fans highlight video about him?

I don't pick music based on the artist or whether or not it's "popular."

I pick it based on the content of the music.

In this case, the rhythms of "Beethoven Virus" worked rather well with Bowe moving on a football field.

But some Jay-Z would have been preferable I suppose.

You don't trade for Moss at age 32 when you're rebuilding your team


Dumbass supreme

Yeah. Who needs 2 firsts and 2 seconds in 2010 when you're rebuilding your team?

Look, I didn't say I was for it or against it. But thanks for your feedback dumbass.

If we did trade Bowe, I would flip out. To trade one of the few elite talents on the team, one of the foundations of a young, struggling offense, would be ridiculous. I'd love to make a play for Boldin, but not if it means getting rid of Bowe. It's a combination of the two plus a speedy slot guy (possibly Lelie if he turns out to not suck) that excites me, not trading one Pro Bowl-caliber receiver for another (older) one.

SERIOUSLY WHY THE **** HAVEN'T WE SIGNED HIM

Haley can't be TOO disappointed with these schmucks if he hasn't made an effort to lock down a talented guy like Matt Jones.

Yeah we should then make an effort to sign Plaxico Buress and Dante Stallworth we could have the all league suspension team.

No, an instrumental that doesn't totally destroy the video would have been preferable. It's not like the guy put Lil Wayne rapping in the background of your video. It was an instrumental sample with bass and snare...nothing too gangsta about it.

Unless you're a 50 year old man trapped in a 20-something's body and think anything that has an electronic sample is "rap". Honestly, the only reason his video has a higher rating(albeit tiny) is because of the music selection.

It's a very good video..with poor music to match.

I think people on this board greatly underestimate Bowe's ability as a WR. The grass is always greener.

Yeah.

I don't think the difference between Bowe is nearly as desparate as it's appears some have implied.

Johnson and Johnson, and Fitz are just a step above Bowe talent wise, and when/if Bowe fixes his concentration issues, that separation will become even smaller.

D Bowe will retire a Chief

[Halfcan]

then go in the HOF

I have been saying this but it has fallen on deaf ears
