ESPN - Jets' spending spree reportedly leaves some vets feeling underpaid - NFL (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3278105&univLogin02=stateChanged)
"You pay guys you don't even know, and the guys in the locker room -- the guys that have your back -- you don't give a damn about them," an anonymous player told The New York Daily News. "It shows where the loyalty is."
Any suspicions on who it could be?

yea were talking about that now in the therad I started a little while ago about free agent contracts
Well, this certainly makes you wonder what Redskins players were thinking during some of our big FA runs. It also makes me feel great about what we're doing right now.

The Jets were 4-12 last year. I can't believe someone/anyone is complaining about not getting enough money.

I can understand them, they played their heart out and had to accept the fact that they were one of the losing teams..

I'd bet my life savings ( which isn't much ) that it's Coles. He's one of the biggest crybabies in the NFL.

*I* really don't care to hear players gripe about loyalty. Loyalty is a two-way street, and in today's NFL it apears to be lacking from both sides of the spectrum.
Players often refer to the NFL as a business, so I would imagine it's fair to conclude there's no loyalty in business.

I read this on ESPN yesterday and thought the same thing. I'd put my savings on that bet too. I'm so glad we trade cry baby my toe hurts Coles for Moss.

It could be Coles, b/c he's been upset recently anyway. I can see both sides of it.
I hope that the skins have learned their lesson, and I think they have a little bit. This offseason is not over yet, but it would make really 2 relatively low key offseasons in a row. 3 offseasons in a row that are productive would make a trend. So i'm not going to say we are changed right now. Let's give it another year.
I do think that had we been 20 mill under the cap we would have made at least one big FA move (not that there's anything wrong with that).
