So...New York Traded Revis to Draft Milliner?

Warning: I am about to launch into a full-on football related rant right now.

The New York Jets recently traded Darrelle Revis, the best corner back in all of professional football right now, to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for two draft picks. How good is Revis? Well, his nickname is "Revis Island" because his section of the field is off limits to opposing offenses and Tampa Bay immediately signed him to a six year ninety-six million dollar contract.

He was essentially the Jets greatest player on their crumbling team and the cornerstone of their defensive machine.

In fact he was the team. With a game plan crafted around defensive might that would make up for one of the league's worst quarterback's and a horrific new offensive scheme to boot, Revis was essential for us to have any chance of winning almost every Sunday.

But we traded him. Boom! Pow! He's gone to the team we have to face in week one of the upcoming nfl season. Bastards at scheduling...

So to annoy me even further, the Jets drafted Dee Milliner last night in the first round of the 2013 player selection meeting (the draft's actual name), who is an Alabama five-star rated corner back: the best one available out of all the players eligible this year.

Why does this annoy me? Well, we drafted Milliner and were likely to sign him to a similar contract as we did Revis, which was to a five year contract worth $36 million, on the exact same premise that he is worth every cent because of his stellar college career and excellent combine performance.,

However, we gave up the league's top defensive player - who is proven to be worth every dime of his record setting $96 million contract and pivotal to our defensive game plan - for a predicted all-around number one corner back coming off his Junior year that will cost us around $40 million easy.

We're taking a significant risk, albeit for a much lower price tag, in our overall game plan. Because we honestly have no idea how Milliner will perform, and if his estimated worth is off by any measure - our general manager and front office team are responsible for not only the elimination of Revis Island - but potentially for giving away the greatest defensive player on our team in decades for just a risk.

And besides we didn't need a freaking corner back!!! We need a damn quarterback, because while a defensive oriented squad is good for Rex Ryan, you actually need to be able to complete a pass more then once in a while...

Ugh.... I hate being a Jets fan
