It’s already been a month since the 72 hour high of NFL free agency wore off. If you’re like me, you’ve probably already forgotten where 90 percent of this year’s free agency crop has landed. The evaluation of how well teams have fared in the open market has long been archived and the discussion has clearly shifted to March Madness and spring training. Yet if there’s one thing that can be extracted from free agency this year, it’s that the Jets have become just like every other New York team with throwing money at whatever big names are momentarily unemployed. It’s no secret that the Jets have always been second banana to the Giants, but with the Giants’ improbable Super Bowl win in February, perhaps they’re feeling even more pressure than usual to step up and make some noise.
