I am hoping he is, tired of seeing his slow ass running around out there. Would rather see more McIntyre or one of the other youngs guys get some playing time.

McIntyre was the one laying on his belly when that back ran right over his corpse for the TD.

he's also the guy who hit Henne when the ball popped up for Bart Scott INT

True.

I like him, but just because he flashes doesn't mean he's better than Bryan Thomas (who hasn't flashed in half a decade if ever).

Thomas had a couple of years in this D in which he was a valuable asset because he could cover. Same with Pace. Those days have passed and they are both worthless. Need an overhaul at LB and this D will be very strong at every level once Revis returns.

Yeah Thomas doesn't show flashes bc he's nowhere to be found. I feel like I hear his name one time, if that, a game. I'd rather see some youth and speed in there that can actually make impact plays.

McIntyre isn't fast and I don't think he's particularly young.

Agreed, outside of the LBs this D is in pretty good shape, especially when you consider a mostly young DL (with lots of talent/potential) will have another year under their belts (and have shown plenty of improvement in their time so far).

Assuming the retention of Landry, the only other positions on the D I could see wanting to address would probably be the other safety spot (Bell has been solid, but is too old to rely on) and maybe NT (Pouha's age and Ellis' health/inexperience). Neither would be positions where they'd really need any big money / high draft pick spending (that needs to be saved for the O).
TL;DR amirite?

Excuses are the tools of the incompetent.

If there isnt an OLB available in the 1st, I'd be o.k. with a NT. Its necessary in this D and its hard to find big guys who can move late. I dont think there will be a single skills player worthy of a 1st round selection this year IMO. Someone will go 1st round obviously, but I wouldnt trust them one bit.

Team says Bryan Thomas suffered a pec strain and is day-to-day. Stephen Hill has an LCL sprain. Team says it will know more Thursday. #nyj

I'd really like to keep Landry and then worry about the other spot. If they don't resign Bell then maybe Bush or Allen can step in and play. Def need to address OLB without a doubt.

I have no faith in Allen playing the other safety spot. I don't think they like him much away from the line. Bush maybe. Another NT sounds like overkill. They need to spend some on the O - money and picks. They may be well served by drafting an RB early because they will need a guy to step in and play if anybody wants to pay Greene. TE I might be happy standing pat even if Keller walks. I like Reuland and Cumberland well enough. This **** FB keeps spitting the ball up, but we can't complain about guys signed off the street. I'd bring in plenty of competition there, but I wouldn't spend anything or any picks.

My issue with McIntyre isn't so much his play, but that he's a DE. McIntyre is basically competition for Coples IMO. They need more LBs that can actually run. Especially if they are transitioning toward 4-3. Davis seemed like a nice start, but I didn't notice him much yesterday. Harris isn't going anywhere thanks to that albatross they signed him to. The others can go or stay, but they need at least 1 speedy guy to add and Davis to pan out. Preferably two more guys.

I'm not the biggest BT fan, but the guy is still as stout vs the run as any OLB in the NFL.

I still believe Kenrick Ellis can be a beast on this defense. I'm hoping for an OLB or ILB in the first.

My draft positional wish list is as follows:

1.OLB
2.ILB
3.RB
4.OG
5.TE (Assuming we don't resign Keller on the cheap)
6. SS to play opposite Landry
7.WR (I want Holmes out of here)

I would say QB but I think we all know this isn't the year we'll draft the next "franchise" quarterback.

Pulling a moob is a mofo.
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

besides Jarvis Jones, there are several very good DE who could be OLB. also there's Manti T'eo who would probably come off the board where the Jets pick now (12 overall).
