What makes Brandon Marshall so good?
FLORHAM PARK- It took a fifth-round pick to get Brandon Marshall from the Windy City to the Big Apple. But what Marshall has meant to the Jets offense in the nine months since? Well, that's worthy of three first rounders.
Marshall has been everything GM Mike Maccagnan could have hoped for and more since arriving in northern New Jersey. In his first 11 games with his new team, he's has already caught 71 passes for 931 yards and nine touchdowns. Marshall's nearing the Jets team record for most receiving touchdowns in a season (14), closing in on the record for receptions (93) and this weekend could become the team's first 1,000-yard receiver since Jerricho Cotchery in 2006.
