YoloinOhio Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Likely no one will claim him for that contract so he becomes a free agent tomorrow, when we can sign him for the rest of the year. I think (but not sure) that after halfway through the season even vested veterans have to pass through waivers.yep I believe it is after week 8 - all players subject to waivers
LeGOATski Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Has he punched anyone? CBF He punched Fitz's beard.
LeGOATski Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 he was solid in previous years. he probably is an upgrade from Bradham or Lawson. I wouldn't be surprised at all if we pick him up. Coples and Bradham don't play the same position. Lawson - Coples - IK
BetterNextYearRight? Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Coples always seemed to have the talent of an all-pro but took plays off at UNC constantly. Sounds like nothing has changed. Still I'd take a flyer. Better then IK, if the light comes on he has almost the ceiling of Mario.
Leroi Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Rumor has it, he was seen arriving at the Buffalo airport this morning. Too bad no one was there to greet him. Imo
r00tabaga Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 He's actually a good coverage guy could have used him against gronk tonight Ummm, no he's not. One trick pony. Rumor has it, he was seen arriving at the Buffalo airport this morning. Too bad no one was there to greet him. Imo I think that was Cowher.
GG Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Rumor has it, he was seen arriving at the Buffalo airport this morning. Too bad no one was there to greet him. Imo Berman's cab driver nowhere to be seen?
Augie Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 I much prefer when other teams whiff on first rounders.
truth on hold Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 His 6.5 sacks last year are more than IK is capable of his entire career...get coples 284 lbs, 4.78/40, 25 reps Guys a beast
YoloinOhio Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) @BrianCoz: Bowles on Coples release: Its just a business move, nothing personal. @BrianCoz: Bowles acknowledges Coples is a better inside player than an outside player. But they had so much depth inside. #nyj @BrianCoz: I know you don't care, but Coples was one of the nicest guys on the Jets. He faced some tough questions and never took it personally. @BrianCoz: Bowles says the Jets have something in mind for Coples roster spot, but not divulging it right now. #nyj Oooh the suspense Edited November 23, 2015 by YoloinOhio
BarleyNY Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 @tommitchell31 On @buffalobills signing Coples, '16 Opt was picked up and has abt $7.75 mil that would carryover in inj gtees, makes claiming him riskier. No one is going to claim him with that option looming. He'll clear waivers, then see what the market bears. Wouldn't blame the Bills if they kicked the tires.
GG Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 @BrianCoz: Bowles says the Jets have something in mind for Coples roster spot, but not divulging it right now. #nyj Oooh the suspense I hear there's an unemployed artist in Baltimore who's looking for work.
Kelly the Dog Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 The $7+m option for next year is for injury only but i doubt anyone will bite.
FLFan Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 @tommitchell31 On @buffalobills signing Coples, '16 Opt was picked up and has abt $7.75 mil that would carryover in inj gtees, makes claiming him riskier. If that is the case, then probably no team will claim him on waivers. Once he is a FA, it's a new ball game.
