faba Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Jets Sign FA Jeremy Reeves from Iowa State Posted 3 hours ago Randy LangeEditor-in-Chief, newyorkjets.com@rlangejets Blog: Randy's Radar We have signed free agent cornerback Jeremy Reeves. Reeves (5'7", 170) was signed shortly after he had a strong showing at Iowa State's pro day on Tuesday with a 4.29-second 40, a 43" vertical leap and an 11'6" broad jump. Reeves played three seasons for Iowa State, from 2010-12. In that span he played in 38 games for the Cyclones with 26 starts. He had 202 totals tackles, five interceptions, and scored three touchdowns —a 91-yard INT return in 2010, a 31-yard INT return in ISU's 2012 AutoZone Liberty Bowl game against Tuas, and a 42-yard onside-kickoff return the game after his INT-return TD in '10. He sat out last season rehabbing following reported pectoral surgery in March 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villain The Foe Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 4.29 40 is fast-now can he play? Not just his 40, dude has a 43 inch vert and broad jumped 12 feet. That's stupid ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might mean Wilson is on the way out considering we were trying to sign munnerlyn earlier in the offseason I don't get this logic. Why would we get rid of someone when we already have a hole at the position? Why create even more holes? I can maybe see if we picked up an automatic starter but even then it would make no sense to dump someone who is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing what Idzik is trying to do he probably does. That broad jump shows he's very explosive. He won't be signed as a FA cb and not be contributing elsewhere. Signings like this makes your team better if it pans out. Hopefully I can find some tape on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can maybe see if we picked up an automatic starter but even then it would make no sense to dump someone who is pretty good. Just repeating something I read here, but it was suggested the purpose of acquiring Munnerlynn was to have him man the nickle spot, so that Wilson could play on the outside. Wilson covering the slot hasn't been a function of his inability to play outside, but that nobody could play inside as well as he could. So the logic stands that if we can find a baller to play in the sub-packages, Wilson (former 1st rounder) can earn his money covering lead receivers.

We've all seen Wilson lose his cool so I don't know how great he would be at covering a lead receiver. I'm not in a hurry, or excited to see that, sadly.

Might mean Wilson is on the way out considering we were trying to sign munnerlyn earlier in the offseason Or maybe it means that Wilson will be CB#1 or CB#2 and they will need another slot. cheap and fast that's how the hawks were built He does seem to like some speed. Maybe. He's probably the fastest and most explosive player on the jets already. I think Saalim Hakim is faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupz27 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Trying to find video on this guy didn't turn up much except that I had no F'N clue the Baylor Bears fielded a WR core of Terrance Williams, Kendall Wright, and Josh Gordon in 2010!!!!!!

Bleedin Green Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 I see. We've all seen Wilson lose his cool so I don't know how great he would be at covering a lead receiver. I'm not in a hurry, or excited to see that, sadly. You realize he already did it for all of 2012, right? Revis didn't even make it through 2 games, so Wilson started across from Cro for the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
