DB Rhodes gets new deal: The Jets and safety Kerry Rhodes agreed to a contract extension Wednesday that will keep one of the team's biggest playmakers in New York's secondary for five more years. According to various media reports, citing anonymous sources, the extension is for $33.5 million, including $20 million guaranteed -- making Rhodes one of the NFL's highest-paid safeties. Rhodes, entering his fourth season, had a year left on his rookie contract and would have become an unrestricted free agent after this season. He has 270 tackles, eight sacks and 10 interceptions in three seasons and has been a starter since being drafted in the fourth round out of Louisville in 2005. (Updated 04/10/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Rhodes is a solid stat maven for the Jets and should continue to be an attractive middle to low-end No. 2 Fantasy DB in league play. Think middle- to late-round pick with him this summer. (Updated 04/10/2008).
