The exact compensation wasn't immediately available, but it is believed to be a fourth-round draft pick that increases in value depending upon how the Jets perform during the 2008 season. As hard as it is for a jaded Jets fan to be happy HOLY ** this is awesome!!!! Edited by Whitekean04**, Aug 7 2008, 01:23 AM.

The rumor that had been floating around most of the evening was Favre was heading to Tampa Bay. Are the Jets playing the Packers this season? If they are, I hope the Jets torch the Packers big time. I bet the Jets fans are in 7th heaven today.

You pretty much figured Pennington would be gone once the Jets got Favre. It was just a matter of time and the Jets didn't waste much time releasing him.

Thet jets and Pack do not play each other this season or the next 5 seasons. Favre should be gone by then. My girlfriend is a Jets fan though so now I have a reason to follow them. Brett you will be missed by the fans and vets (probably not the front office or rodgers though).

I agree but he's just a place holder to see if any of the young guys can do anything or if we have to go in another direction. He'll be capable but not very good I'm afraid.
