Tipster19 Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Everett may still be the pass catching TE that we hope that he'll be but until he can stay healthy and on the field, Jolley would be a great addition for the Bills. I wonder what the Jets would want for this guy.
BUFFALOTONE Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Not gonna happen. Royal has looked great in camp and it would be a shot at him to grab a TE who has underachieved to say the least. He had one solid year and since then has fizzled.
RJsackedagain Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 I hope what you mean by Buffalo Blue is Jolley taking over the role of Billy Buffalo.
duey Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 That guy is a complete stiff. Kudos to the Raiders for fleecing the Jets for a 1st round pick for that guy!
Tipster19 Posted August 31, 2006 Author Posted August 31, 2006 It wouldn't hurt to use a little foresight fellas. The Jets' administration as we knew it has been dismantled. I believe that this player has been lost in the shuffle. It wouldn't hurt to investigate player's ability and character. It should safe to say that this guy would have alot to play for. Let's not lose sight of how important a pass catching TE is in today's game. Dallas, Indianapolois, and New England are loaded at the TE position. Marv has always been a believer in the TE position. What's our situation? Check out Jolley's bio. http://www.newyorkjets.com/team/roster/sho...ntroller=player
JStranger76 Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Hey, TE's help "move the chains". Dare I say it though, we may be adequate after being truely pathetic at this position for many years now. I say stay where we are at for now.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 That guy is a complete stiff. Kudos to the Raiders for fleecing the Jets for a 1st round pick for that guy! 757274[/snapback] I always imagined how that trade actually went down. Al Davis: "Okay, well we got Doug Jolley...I know you need a TE, so we'll float him to you for a sixth roun..." Jets GM: "FIRST ROUNDER! We'll give you a first rounder for your backup TE!" *Awkward Silence, followed by Al trying to contain a gitty squeal* Al Davis: "Kaaay...First rounder it is"
Tipster19 Posted August 31, 2006 Author Posted August 31, 2006 That's pretty funny, a 1st rder for Jolley. It's more like the Jets moved back from a late 1st rd to a mid 2nd rder. In addition, the Jets improved their 7th rder to a 6th. They also received another 6th rder and Jolley for compensation. Based on the value point board, it wasn't too bad of a deal for the Jets at the time. I just think that the Jets' administration was a mess and they didn't utilize him properly.

That wouldn't brand them as idiots - just as being prudent.
Buftex Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 How many TE's have the Bills braught in, over the last decade, trying to find anyone even remotely comperable to Metzelaars, as far as all around play? No thanks...the Bills haven't really utilized the TE as an offensive weapon in years....
apuszczalowski Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 He might look good in a bills uniform, you never know, maybe the blue and red would bring out something in his eyes, or work with his skin tones. Maybe some of the females could help the original poster out and let him know if he truly would look good in Buffalo Blue
Mark Long Beach Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 No! No. No. No. No. I do not want him. Underperformer. Poor blocker. I can't believe the how badly the Jets got fleeced on that deal. (but was happy to see it of course) Unless of course, you did mean to just play dress-up with him. Well... what you do in your own time is your own business.
ganesh Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Moot point....He has been traded to the Tampa Bay Bucs... linky
MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Moot point....He has been traded to the Tampa Bay Bucs... ...and they're already displeased with him.
Lori Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Another one of Terry Bradway's stupid player personnel moves rectified.
Pirate Angel Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Last year we desperately could have used him, Now Royal seems to be overachieving in the pass game, look at there practice highlights hes making catches all over the place, plus hes a way better blocker. I read everett has been a pretty strong blocker to. Some one will give him way more cash then what we would want to pay him
KD in CA Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 ...and they're already displeased with him. 757513[/snapback]
BoondckCL Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 We don't want him anyway. What does that say about the guy when the Jets gave up a first round pick last year for the guy and now they are trying to pawn him off for something that they lost to the Raiders when the Raiders mugged them. Tony Kline > Doug Jolley
Fla Bills Fan Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Moot point....He has been traded to the Tampa Bay Bucs... linky 757453[/snapback] Gruden likes him, but he is the#3 TE on the team.
