Jet27 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Free agency or draft who could we be targeting. Don't know if he is available but what about Ray Rice??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Lots of good backs in this draft, both early and later on. I think we get one in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradis Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 We missed out on Spiller (NOS) and McFadden (DAL) which is disappointing, as I saw both as quality COP backs for our new system. At this point, I'm all in on David Johnson in the 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cashius17 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I would love a second round running back... it would help FitzGeno even more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernJet Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Free agency or draft who could we be targeting. Whilst warming lunch in breakroom, I put NFL Network on the display and it had bit about 'one of deepest RB drafts in years' 2 guys in 1st round, several in 2nd/3rd. If Jets dont go Mariota we may draft a stud RB or do a trade down w/Browns/eagles and use one of the picks on a stud young RB that can catch the ball out of backfield as one his skill-sets.

ChuckkieB Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 I really think Ivory will do well getting the majority of the carries. I love the way he runs - he looks to punish tacklers! Definitely could use another back to come out of the backfield and catch some passes other than Powell though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear, even to a half-wit, that i used that language because I obviously sport an affinity for both backs. You in the mood for an e-argument, or what? the use of "missed out" is worth making a sweeping generalization about the "all knowing fan"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warfish Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 #1 Chis Ivory #2 Bilal Powell #3 Late Draft Pick or JAG FA or JAG on roster This won't be a Rex Ryan team.

"Missed Out" implies we had desire, and tried to acquire, and failed. "Passed on" implies we lacked interest and didn't try to acquire. For Spiller, "passed on" would be the appropriate terms to use. Nothing wrong with using the right terms, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First off I'm not used to you posting about positions other then the TE..LOL However if you have a affinity for those backs didn't you miss out?? Or is it MM's fault for not listening to you?? I don't have the talent to be the GM but I do realize I'm in the minority there.. However I'm really happy with what MM has done so far and I'm sure he will address the missed position in the draft..

For Spiller, "passed on" would be the appropriate terms to use. Nothing wrong with using the right terms, right? No, I don't work for the Jets. "We" is term many human beings use to express the universal collective, in this case, applied to the team I follow. We IMO missed out on Spiller and co. That's how i feel. I also felt we made a mistake drafting Sanchez when it happened. That was something I felt. It's the not the end of world. I'll get over it. I hope you guys can get over the use of the english language in contemporary conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
