Well there will be a little tighter security and a few less invited guests next time. 128 is not being banned from the board but he will not have access to the next chat. I have asked him to obey a few simple rules several times now and he is having a hard time following along. Sperm did a great job though. We left him hanging all by himself. It is a lot of work and he did a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever question you throw at him he answers. If he doesn't know, he doesn't B.S. you. I would imagine these chats are not really easy to do from their perspective. And the guys we have had in here have really done well at it (Cimini, Gross, Lange). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted December 14, 2006 Author Share Posted December 14, 2006 What I got out of it from next year point of view is that in his opinion the Jets will Draft BPA as they should and spend money to replace the weak positions. thru Draft BPA and FA we should get OT - FA and Draft Guard - FA and Draft RB - Draft DB - FA and Draft DT/DE - Draft and keep Komo 1 more year (PK) - FA I thought the PK comment he made was interesting. He wanted to have competition but couldn't because of money? WOW. Sad state of affairs they inherited cap wise. I guess there were so many other positions to sort out. Having a kicker in camp to compete with the starter is a good thing. Also thought the Hobson to the inside comments were interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also thought the Hobson to the inside comments were interesting. AG is really great and I appreciate these chats you guys set up. I didnt read thru the transcript since I was there, but he always has some interesting things to say. The part about Sutton being a company guy who would prolly agree to go back to LB coach if they brought in Crennel or someone...very insightful...and the part about Vilma having a N-S assignment but wanting to instinctively go E-W around the guards was a great observation. But IIRC he also believes that CP will emerge as #1 again next summer and that was a little disconcerting. I hope that Clemens is good enough to step up and make the CS want to play him. It's too bad AG doesnt get to see practice, as I'd be curious to know how KC was doing during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted December 14, 2006 Author Share Posted December 14, 2006 Cane -- I think we are on the same page. I like Chad. I really do. I just hope to like Clemens even more. I hope that process begins in 2007, not 2008. And his comments about practice were pretty funny -- we watch stretching and punting drills in the first half hour. LOL, Mangini is too much. Gotta love it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also thought the Hobson to the inside comments were interesting. It is IMPOSSIBLE that the reson for not having a kicker in was because of the cap. What counts against your cap is only the 51 HIGHEST cap numbers at any one time (I think I am correct there), and a FA kicker to compete would not be one of those numbers. That wpuld not be the reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetCane Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 Yep, that's what I was getting at when I asked him about his access to the team. I wanted to know if he has caught any KC reps. Stretching and punting, LOL. Andrew is very open and surprisingly, he doesnt dodge any questions. I wanted to know which players he had a rapport with to try and get some context as to who he feels he can talk to about stuff. And his analysis of Vilma's conflict between playing instinctively vs sticking to his assignment is the best analysis I've seen all year of why JV isnt being so productive.

Maxman Posted December 14, 2006 Author Share Posted December 14, 2006 SD -- good point about the kicker. Cane -- YES. It was a great question that you asked. And he did answer honestly. You can see why Mangini drives these guys crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wpuld not be the reason Not necessarily. As a mid-high 2nd-rounder, Nugent received a little over $1.6M signing bonus just last season. If he was cut, then we'd eat half that this year & half next year. At the time I think we were cutting it pretty thin. Keep in mind we had to allocate $6M extra for Chad as LTBE incentives. Also I think Mangini would rather grade a kicker in pressure situations more than training camp. So unless Nugent was suddenly the worst kicker he'd ever seen he wouldn't get cut. What would that do to Mangini's "open competition" mantra? These guys all CAN kick field goals. What needed evaluating was whether they WOULD kick FG's when a pressure situation arose.
