FidelioJet Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I was so high on this kid. Thought of him as the perfect replacement for Cro and was hoping he would be one of those undrafted guys that turn into an all-pro. He seems to be very instinctive around the ball and can cover really well But if you're afraid to tackle (or can't tackle) you simply can't be on the field. He can play in nickel situations (where he mostly won't be necessary to stop the run) but he can't start. It's just a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roscoeword Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 he's a perfect replacement for Cro who also can't/won't tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJets Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I've noticed on special teams he's not terrible at tackling. He's made a lot of nice plays there, but when on defense, however, it seems like he just throws his shoulder or misses an arm tackle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 with the extended break, I have to think milliner gets a shot at replacing him if cro can't go but I think we will be back to cro and revis anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 with the extended break, I have to think milliner gets a shot at replacing him if cro can't go but I think we will be back to cro and revis anyway Agree Milliner is the next best option if he can stay healthy.

He has one single game under his belt listed as an NFL starter...can we give the kid a day or two to develop before we label him as a crappy footballer?

Milliner is like 7th on the depth chart. It'll be interesting to see who is even active against the Texans. I suspect it would be Milliner or McDougle who would be inactive. They won't keep 7 CBs active on game day. Who knows how hurt Cro actually is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cro looked ready to go in warm ups Thursday night I was surprised he wasn't playing,he's hurt the guy hasn't missed a game in 9 years no way we are paying him all that money and purposely keeping him inactive.

Joe Jets fan Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 It looked to me like he was scared to even try to tackle. Not missing with bad angles, just scared to try. Good thing Millner is the one that will play for cro if he misses another game and will next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing Millner is the one that will play for cro if he misses another game and will next year. That's what really concerned me...It wasn't like he was out of position...He kinda puts his down down and reached out with his arms - as if to avoid contact. If you're afraid to tackle in the NFL it's tough to keep him on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCarl40 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 you know who is on the fence, lol That's completely possible but he also plays the most snaps on specials and is a solid player there. Specials have gotten better since he has gotten healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of jet fans are dumb, and think that some scrub who makes a play is actually a player. We have a long line of jet jags who pfans think are great.
