Is Jay Cutler Heading to the Jets?

Daily News - Jay Cutler wants out of Denver and the Jets have told the Broncos they want him if they decide to trade him. Multiple sources told the Daily News Sunday at the opening of the NFL meetings that Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum contacted the Broncos to let them know the Jets are very interested in trading for Cutler. But the Jets have yet to make a trade offer, and the Broncos have not said what they want, because Denver has not determined the Cutler situation is beyond repair. But this much is clear: The Jets are definitely in the Cutler Derby... Cutler is upset that McDaniels tried to deal him to Tampa Bay in a three-way deal that would have brought Matt Cassel from New England to Denver. He was further incensed when McDaniels didn't appease him in a face-to-face meeting after Cassel wound up being traded to Kansas City. The Jets will face strong competition from the Bucs and Bears if Cutler is available. Last summer, the Jets outbid the Bucs for Brett Favre.

Could this be real? Or am I only dreaming it? The Jets might get Jay Cutler? They might actually be getting the most divisive, self-centered, me-first asshat quarterback in the NFL to replace last years most divisive, self-centered, me-first asshat quarterback in the NFL. I'd think it possible, but it sounds too good to be true. Here I was, dreading next season. Pondering how much less fun the AFC East would be with the Jets stuck with an anonymous nobody like Kellen Clemens under center instead of a petulant, unity-destroying diva. Worried about how I was going to find ways to mock NY football press without an overrated, self-absorbed dickhead to stand at the center of their circle jerk. And now, at the depths of my despair Jay Cutler might come along to fill the void. It's a miracle. And as a bonus, Jets fans will get all ginked up about Cutler riding to their rescue just like they did with Brettfavre last year, only to find out the hard way that championships are won by real leaders who put their team first, not tempermental egomaniacs who get sand in their vaginas every time their name gets mentioned in a trade rumor.

Please, Tannebaum, make this deal happen. Look how well it worked out for you last year.
