Why Did Eric Decker Land With The Jets?

After catching 172 passes, 24 for touchdowns, from Peyton Manning in the past two seasons, receiver Eric Decker was a bit baffled that the Denver Broncos did not value his contributions enough to offer him a contract as a free agent this off-season. That is why Decker said he was so won over by the Jets' pitch for his services. In offering a five-year, $36.25 million contract and penciling him in as the No. 1 receiver, the Jets made him feel valued. "I'd say the New York Jets gave me the most respect," Decker said in a conference call Friday. "That's important to me. I want to be an asset to a team."

I think he had 36.25 million reasons why? It was about the money. Can't really blame him. He wouldn't get that money from a contender and he knew it. Got to get that big payday before being shown the door.

 

Or no one else bit into the idea that he's a number one receiver...

 

he has a damn good looking wife too who probably has a high maintenance price.

 

Who's Eric Decker?

 

Heir to the Black and Decker fortune.

 

Hey the Blacks have half of that too.

 

yep but too many of them to get anything worth of value. Not many Deckers.

 

Never pay a white WR more then 6 million a year

 

Since when are blacks entitled?

 

Unless he has the last name Largeant.

 

Emmanuel Sanders will prove this theory...
