Damaged89 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I'm not crazy about the idea. Maybe it would work if they kept Leonhard as insurance/secondary coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being told #Jets are "intrigued" about the possibility of teaming Nelson and Landry. #nyj This is great hope it happens. I started a thread on Tuesday, asking if anyone would like a FA signings of Nelson Landry Schillens Any top 6 OT available Drew Stanton or similar I would love this scenario not the big splashes, and it gives the Jets the option of taking BPA in every round no matter what position they play.

JetsFanInDenver Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 If they really are intrigued, wouldn't they wait till both guys are signed before telling the world about it ? This has to be a sign of incompetence if they really are intriued! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crusher Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 No idea who Jake Steinberg is, but if Landry is healthy this would make for one excellent duo.Nelson is good in coverage and Landry is great in the box. Not going to be healthy for long. He needs a surgical repair of his Achilles tendon. Chances of him playing 16 games this year is slim to none. Nothing has changed from his last couple of years with the Skins. Guy is a monster hitter and poor in coverage when he's on the field. Like a fifth linebacker, good in the box.

Bingo .... the guys got the heart of a great football player but his wheel is screwed up and likely will be forever. And if he doesn't cover well, does it matter that the opposing WR catches the ball because the guy covering him is short - or that the guy covering him isn't covering him?

New York Mick Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Signing Landry to anything outside of a week to week contract is a mistake and I'd only do that after I put him through a weeks long workout. I ****ed up my Achilles playing rugby and can promise you guys it's a bad injury. It gets weaker and stiffer as the season goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 My issue is that Reggie Nelson sucks. Maybe if they kick him in the a$$ he'll play up to his talent level all the time, but he's a guy who'll flip his switch right off if the urge hits him. He might smell fishy being a guy who's talented, usually healthy, but somehow sucked until his contract year (and he wasn't even THAT good). Landry I like because there's a whole bunch of people hammering a chip into an extremely talented player's shoulder. It's the kind of FA signing that makes complete sense as he's a young vet who is a stud player when he's on the field that won't break the bank due to his injury knock.

Not saying that's perfect, but I'm willing to assume he's in good hands and if he checks out well enough medically they'll like him more than any of the other safeties out there.

Darrellegivesmeaboner#24 Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 If medicals check out, this would be the key to our offseason. We could then exclusively go after OLB/WR in the draft... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I don't but I'm not playing pro football either where a tiny drop in reaction time can make you a JAG or taking the amount of strain he's going to put on it. Remember he didn't get it fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember he didn't get it fixed. Well he didn't have surgery, which can be viewed as good or bad depending on a physical. Also Landry's drop to JAG is further than other safeties to JAG, which is why going after young vets who were very good but fell off recently makes the most sense.

I agree we need to bring in people but I don't think it should be guys that cant make it though a season because of injury unless we have a backup for them and pay them accordingly.

Landry doesn't sound like he's looking to break anyone's bank, and there's not a ton of leverage for him to do that since everyone's killing him for injuries. Nelson's still out there because no one trusts him enough to commit. He's never had injury problems, he's very talented, he was very hyped, and still he's out there with no physical knock. Not a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 me likey the best predictor for playoff success is QB rating differential. so you try to beef up your attack, and stop the other guy this helps with that, so it's worth spending $ on now if we can get a WR/RT in the draft, OLB, very nice off season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
