Sheppard trade scenarios now moot

[Mr. Scot]

Per Rotoworld, the Jets are getting Lito Sheppard for a fifth rounder and a conditional pick.

The Jets and Eagles have agreed to a trade that will send a 2009 fifth-round pick and a 2010 conditional pick to the Eagles.

The 2010 pick could be anywhere between a second and fourth-round pick, presumably depending on Sheppard's playing time.

For a 5th and a conditional 2010 pick? That's really surprising that's all they could get for him.

[Snake]

IMO he has gone way down hill and Lucas might even be better.

[Johnny Rockets]

That is about what I expected. The conditional pick of possibly a second sounds good. Good for all involved.

[Mr. Scot]

I was never a big fan of the 'Peppers for Sheppard' idea.

Rex Ryan is just going crazy on that defense. I'm starting to love that guy right now.

[Brooklyn Bully]

Man, the Jets are super active early in FA. Bucs and Pats too. Must be exciting at least. Not saying they're making the right moves but you know their forums are blowing up.

they spent huge last year and got little for it. Jenkins was their only good pickup on D, and he tailed off at the end. Goulston could be a total bust.

Scott isn't a terrible pickup, and neither is Sheppard depending on how they screw themselves with the conditional pick in 2010, but there's only so much buying you can do before you have to start coaching.
