No one is talking about him.
While its too early to send him to the Hall of Fame he seems to be coming of age this season. The last two games he has had momentum changing plays. Two forced fumbles one going for a TD.
Good to see that finally one of the JETS higher picks are panning out.

He's part of the reason I had to laugh earlier this week when I saw so many people saying that Mangold was the only player on the team worth keeping. Despite their struggles, it's insane to suggest that Mangold is the only guy on the team worth keeping.

He has 2 sacks and 3 FF in 10 games.
That's probably why nobody is talking about him.....

Shaun ellis 2.0. Big games, decent games, games in which he disappears . Still I'll take an Ellis replacement if he can pass rush like the big cat used to. On a different note, kenrick is starting to look like dwayne Robertson 2.0. Bad knees and all.

Meh, he's proven to be capable of making an impact when healthy. I wouldn't make the D-Rob comparison yet.
sheesh, I'm a doosh.

No offense man but you can't judge a 3-4 d-lineman like that, it's like judging a baseball player on his batting average and RBI's alone. Sure we would like more sacks but you have to look at the bigger picture.***
***I will definitely take the 3 FF's per 10 games, though.

You mean the part where he misses 3 games and 5 starts in his five years with the team? They are like twins.
JetNation.com the most holy of Jets message boards.

The Jets have more than a few guys that are worth keeping, Wilkerson being one of them. But when you think about it Mangold and Revis are probably the ONLY players the Jets have who would start for a team like the 49ers.

All the metrics love Wilkerson and he's looked very good. But he's also been going against some really bad competition.
Seattle was bad competition at home ? Where there offense usually thrives ? That's news to me.

Wilkerson looks like he's developing. We're noticing him more and more. If he keeps it up, he's going to be a really valuable player. I wouldn't give up on him yet.
I do not know if we were ever close to giving up on him. He has been decent the first half of the season.
But the last two games he has made some BIG time impact plays.

He doesn't really disappear, he's just not a great pass rusher. PFF has him as the 2nd-best 3-4 DE in the league against the run (and he's a lot closer to #1 than he is to #3). He'd look even better if our LBs weren't complete sh*t.
This is like having a cat with leukemia.

I think Cromartie and Landry could start anywhere. The more I see of Cro, the more it seems like he's overcome his fear of contact, which I never thought we'd see. Keller is better than most starting TE's but not elite. There are others, but those are the most obvious to me.
