Favre Deciding?

[Chevelle2]

"The Packers are believed to have reached compensation agreements with both teams that would be satisfactory. According to nfl.com, the Jets had the better offer, a package that would include a conditional pick that could become a first-rounder.

Wednesday night, Favre was deliberating with his family over which team to play for."

Space for rent?

Shouldn't be long now. Brett always makes these decisions quickly.

It's up to him? I don't think so.

Make the deal, and if he doesn't like it, it's not to late to just let him sit.

Apparently, though, for all the bluffing and offering of $25 million, the Packers actually did decide to make a trade and avoid paying his salary for sitting.

Are you slow? Of course it is up to him...otherwise no trade and we get nothing.

a Jets 1st round pick could be a top 5 pick.

There could be some "coulda been, woulda been" gnashing of teeth if it isn't the Jets and they bomb this year.

Mangini is one of the most hated coaches by its players.

New york: the media spotlight, the bright lights, Joe Namath's footsteps, all calling "Brett..."

Tampa Bay: some familiarity with the coach and the system and the conference. A chance to go deep into the playoffs.

Hmm.

yeah they said (whatever that means now) that both teams have made acceptable offers ... i assume that means they'd would take either trade? lol

so at this point, it's down to whatever trade wont have favre back in the headlines for a month talking about how he wont play there.

Jets are decent...more like 8-8 to 10-6.

Jets fans are worried about mr. wingit..they know they need a qb not to lose games..not one that tries to win them by himself.

Good thing no one asks the fans...

I think they were talking about a conditional pick that could possibly be a first. Which would probably mean Favre has to have a great year. If Favre plays like he did on 2007, Jets won't be bad.

Hmm.

Normally I would say Tampa by all accounts.

But based on this outline and my interpretation of Brett's newly-unveiled requirements, it looks like he's gonna be a Jet.

[Fosco33]

Isn't the Jets 1st rd offer 'conditional' on team/Favre performance? I.E., if they make playoffs then 1st rd... which means it wouldn't be a 'top 5' kinda deal. Still a good move at this stage.

[Harlan Huckleby]

I think he's going to decide MN and ask again to be traded there.
