BNNY: Living Room Edition - [How will Matt Harvey be remembered?]( Out of Office Replies - [Kaz Famuyide has some advice for Leon Rose]( - [Jon Hein shares a Stern story]( FYI: We might find a way for everyone to watch the Mets this week.... 👀 --------------------------------------------------------------- Today's word count: 581 words (about five minutes) --------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Robby Anderson's stagnant search for a contract SNY graphic Nine days into the NFL's free agency period, Robby Anderson -- the Jets' most productive offensive player over the last three seasons -- is still unsigned. It has been a down year for the wide receiver market in general. It also doesn't help that the 2020 wide receiver draft class is exceptionally deep. So, when is Anderson's payday coming? And how much will it be? SNY's Ralph Vacchiano [examined those questions]( yesterday on SNY.tv. Here's what one agent told Vacchiano: - "At this point, he's got to be thinking about getting the best deal he can from the Jets. He can still get a decent deal for maybe one or two years, and then be back on the market when the (NFL salary) cap starts to go way up. He'll still be young. Maybe his numbers go up and he can really cash in then." Here's what other marquee to semi-marquee free agents have gotten over the past week, with only one truly cashing in: - Amari Cooper, five years, $100 million with Dallas. - Randall Cobb, three years, $27 million with Houston. - Emmanuel Sanders, two years, $16 million with New Orleans. Anderson, 26, is still well-regarded by the Jets, reported Vacchiano, but only at a price that general manager Joe Douglas has already set. Will he end up back with the Jets? The longer he stays on the open market the likelier that is, wrote Vacchiano: - "... the longer Anderson waits, his price is more likely to go down than up. - So if Douglas' strategy was to wait Anderson out, it appears to be working. And it's increasingly possible that whatever the Jets are offering will turn out to be the best that Anderson can get."

This week on SNY is all you can watch Mets @snytv/Twitter The bad news: If times were normal, the Mets would be playing real, regular season baseball in two days.
