JetsTitans63 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Why was Woody answering all the questions Tanne sat on the side looking flushed and worried. Dont be surprised if Tanne is also shown the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BF4LC87 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 He's safe for now but if Wooody wants Cowher and Cowher wants total control then Tanny is either fired or demoted to a lesser role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSJ Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 On Jets Point After Adam Schien said he has spoken to several GM's around the league and the JEts have talent. So I think Mike T may be doing a good job after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSJ Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 agree.. Tanny wasnt problem with this team I have gone back and forth on this - but looking up and down the Jets roster I agree as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BF4LC87 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 The best analogy I heard was Woody gave them the kitchen, Tanny gave them all the ingredients, the Jets coaches just didn't know how to cook.

PaJetFan Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 This past offseason was incredible and so have been most of the draft picks and long term contracts we've given. Tanne has basically built this team. Mangini just could not handle meshing it and motivating it properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 agree.. Tanny wasnt problem with this team Can't help but wonder who's idea it was to bring in Favre. I do think Mr.T is safe for now. Unless a high powered HC is brought in who wants control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montreal Jet Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 This team needs to upgrade it's scouting dept. So far, the only great pick in the First round was Revis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vudu Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Tanny is not the problem, he made a lot of things happen. 5 weeks ago he was up for GM of the year. Find a new coach, new defensive and offensive coordinators and let's get ready for camp!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetscode1 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Not sure what impact Tanny had on building the roster...thought he was mainly a capologist...for the draft I thought Bradway did the scouting and Mangini did the interviews and they picked on consensus...even with that the results were mixed...but probably a little better than average. In free agency and contracts I would rate him a little lower...too many overpaid players; Thomas and Woody come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aec4 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 What about Keller..... I haven't seen anything great yet, on a consistent basis. 2 good games, definitely. If Johnson wants Parcells to come back here to be team President, if he fires Tannenbaum, that's a way to INSURE it DOES NOT happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMJ Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Woody feels that Mike T did a fantastic job acquiring talent the past few years (and he has). He felt Eric did a terrible job winning with that talent (which he did). Tanny stays for sure and him doing his job so well is what got Eric canned.

gangreenman Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 This team needs to upgrade it's scouting dept. So far, the only great pick in the First round was Revis. Mangold as well, and D'Brick is starting to turn the corner in a big way. Point being Mike T has been GM for 3 offseasons, and has drafted 3 good starters (2 OL, 1 CB), a good receiving TE (Keller), and a LB who's athletic ability gives him incredible potential. He's also been responsible for drafting Leon Washington and David Harris, trading for Kris Jenkins, trading for Thomas Jones, and trading for Brett Favre. Not to mention signing Alan Faneca, Damien Woody, Ty Law, etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMC Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Woody feels that Mike T did a fantastic job acquiring talent the past few years (and he has). He felt Eric did a terrible job winning with that talent (which he did). Tanny stays for sure and him doing his job so well is what got Eric canned. We have to read between the lines like we did with Cowher. Last night in Woody's interview, he said the word "talent," as in, the Jets have talent. He said the word talent again in today's press conference. What does that tell us? It tells us that Woody is happy with Mike T. And as to the thread-starter's point about Mike T looking "flushed" and "worried" at the PC, guess what? Mike T just FIRED his best friend. How would you look after doing that?

JustInFudge Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Mikey T is safe. I think Woody has made it clear that he feels good about what Mikey T did this offseason. And I do as well. I think we have the talent. And I would like another Mikey T draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 tanny gave woody his favorite toy, brett farve, so he is safe I think farve stays on another year, and tanny hires one of his fomer coaches for him like holmgren or mooch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsTitans63 Posted December 29, 2008 Author Share Posted December 29, 2008 Scouting and draft issues comes hand in hand with the JETS organization. It sucks time for a major upgrade and improvement or nothing will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetscode1 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Before their deals are done I bet you are saying the same about Faneca and Jenkins, too. Plus Jenkins cost draft two picks You are probably right...Tanny overpayed for both...I understand the logic more with Faneca and Jenkins but was shaking my head over Thomas and Woody...Thomas had one good year (contract year) and Woody basically suxxed in Detroit (only played RT the last 5-6 games) yet we hand him a big contract and he's our starting RT. Faneca's deal was a bit much...I can only justify by stating the obvious...both Dbrick and Mangold improved with Faneca in the middle...leadership and decent play solidified the line and we would not have had the success running the ball this year without him. Jenkins...provided the girth in the middle for a real 3-4 but slowed down toward the end...both players could justify their contract but its obvious we overpayed. Another area that Tanny confused me was Pace...sign Pace with Thomas yet we draft Gholston...just didn't make sense...not with today's money going by draft position. Bottom line: My understanding of how the JETS front office worked is lacking...I just don't understand how Tanny gets good grades/praise in some circles. Thought he was mainly a capologist not a guy who made the decisions on the talent acquisition. If he gets credit for some of talent on the roster (and there has been some good moves) he also deserves some criticism for some of the other decisions (including Favre which I supported).
