God bless Jets fans. Their dreams are as limited, to paraphrase Rod Serling, as their imaginations. They've developed this subconscious membrane that shields them from reality. It's a defense mechanism, no doubt, to protect you from the decades of decay since Joe Namath.
The Jets have been in the forefront during this NFL free-agent frenzy period. But don't look now, here come the Patriots.
It's already crazy for NFL teams, players, agents and fans -- and it's about to get a whole lot worse. Check out who's going where with CBSNewYork.com's free agency tracker, and follow the biggest names out there with our FA twitter stream.
Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum continued his onslaught of undrafted free agent signings on Thursday. The Jets added six more UFAs, bringing their total to 16 since the NFL lockout ended.
Early on in his first update of the morning, Jerry 'Rello' Recco turned to the trusty "WFAN Boomer & Carton Von Stecker 2011 NFL Free-Agent Tracker" to get us up to speed on what's happening in the fast and furious free agency period.
Predictably, Boomer & Craig opened up this Friday edition of the "Morning Extravaganza" talking about the prospect of the Jets landing the prize of the free-agent pool, cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha.
The Buffalo Bills have agreed to terms on a contract with free agent all-purpose threat Brad Smith, formerly of the New York Jets. It's rumored to be a four-year, $15 million deal.

On the first day of free agency, the Jets crossed off #1 on their to-do list by coming to terms on a five-year $50 million cap friendly deal to bring back WR Santonio Holmes. So what's next for the Jets.
The NFL lockout is history and the league's free-agent frenzy is -- well, it's frenzied. But there's still plenty of work ahead for NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith.
A tweeted image of Santonio Holmes, who appears to be slugging a bottle of champagne, is leading some to question the decision-making abilities of the Jets' skilled wide receiver.
The Sanchize has a new nickname: El Capitan. Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez will wear the captain's "C" on his jersey this season, coach Rex Ryan announced on Wednesday.
Kicker Nick Folk is rejoining the Jets after agreeing to terms with the team on a one-year deal. "Happy to be headed back to Jersey on Friday and let's get this going #JETSNATION," Folk tweeted on Wednesday.
As a Jets fan, Craig was thrilled to see Santonio Holmes gracing the cover of the NY Post this morning, celebrating his $50 million deal with the Jets by swigging a bottle of Cristal.
