Overlooked Douglas brings big numbers to Jets

Bart Scott overheard a reporter's question to Marques Douglas regarding the statistic and responded before the defensive end could.

There's a lot of players in the league who could learn a lot from Leon Washington... including Thomas Jones.

Hey TJones...Take a tip from Leon Washington. Classy. You have a couple years left and will be remembered for...I guess you made the SB once with da bears...But Leon has the caliber to be a NYJ legend (as long as the "patience" doesn't run thin).

Defense! Defense! Defense! Don't know about you all but I am eager to see this violent, attacking defense in Green and White. Heyward-bey or Nicks with 17th pick!!! Trade up and pick up McCoy or Wells!

Dougals is going to turn into one of the bets offseason signings they made.

has TJ come out and said that he wants more money. if he has, I say that he should give money back that he got two years ago when it took 15 games to score his lone TD of the year. and besides the signing bonus spread out over the lenght of the contract makes him a lot more than his base this year. how fast they forget about that money. just play ball this year, and if you are as good as last year, you will get more the next year.

Guys,

It's a business. Let's not take it personal with TJ. Pay TJ and Leon what they want, and don't mess with the run game. Receiver, QB and Defense, will get us to the show! Go JETS!

TJ is being paid an average of 5-million a year over a four year contract. Just because a new coaching staff comes in, that is no reason to want to throw out the last two years of a four year contract he signed just two years ago. if he wants to be a hard a$$ about it, I say draft a running back at 17 and pay TJ his $900,000 and let him sit on the bench or buy out the rest of his contract for about 8-million. I love watching TJ play, but face it, his production two years ago doesn’t grant a new contract now.

I've read two articles on Marques Douglas and numbers do tell the story. Douglas is an unsung hero who should be rewarded as the stats suggest. Remember Marques, God said the first shall be last and the last shall be first. Keep on keeping on because your dedicated and talents have not gone unnoticed. Your family is EXTREMELY proud of you.
