pointman Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 You just compared Curtis Martin to BJGE. Just to have a "one-upper" moment. Shame on you sir, shame. :agreed. I wrote several posts and deleted them. I didn't want to get banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitonti Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 i suspect this is more about screwing with the Pats (who just signed Marquis Cole) than it is about actually signing the law firm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornJetsFan1983 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 this shouldnt matter about the price tag, we should not sign him, this is a horrible move...he's worse than green, at least green is a starter...well kind of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatriotReign37 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Green-Ellis was 3rd in DYAR and 2nd in DVOA in 2010. In 2011 he dropped to 15th and 18th, respectively. Not sure which is the trend here but even if last year is any indicator he's a solid back to have in the mix. I wouldn't be offended if he came here for the right price. He's a serious upgrade over McKnight. Only downside, as mentioned, is that McKnight remains our only pass-catching back. But really, who cares if we're running it 40 times a game. I also like him better than Michael Bush. He had turf toe last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Mick Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I'd rather see if we can get Stewart I was hoping we'd draft him. He run like Greene with a better top end gear not sure if they can afford him. BGE could bring something to the Jets as a 3rd down back I guess.

The Troll Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 BJGE is not that bad. I actually think he's a little under-rated. but he certainly is far from an elite talent. Just a dependable guy. Better than Greene, at least. If we get him, I bet he fumbles immediately, though. Isn't that the way they say it goes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashmouth Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Why arent the Jets bringing in Michael Bush? The law firm is the only back they didnt use in the passing game. Thats the biggest void with LT leaving. Dont like and I've got a bad feeling this is happening. Exactly ! Why arent we bringing in Michael Bush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to end that no fumble streak, sign with the Jets. I can see his first carry as a Jet being one where the ball squirts out high and far right into a DB's hands.

Im usually confused by what happens on draft day. I'm hoping FA can take some of the confusion away for me. I would LOVE for them to nab Atogwe. Then we can concentrate on OLB, reserve corner, RT, OL depth, RB, P, WR, TE and ILB. lol ahhhhhhhh the mere idea relaxes me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Patriots offensive line is beast. Better than ours. O-lines make 1000 yard, 10 TD RBs like him. We'll have to pay him like a starter. Rule of thumb? Never pay a RB his second contract. That position is dominated by youth, it is what the draft is for. Free agent RBs not in the top 5 of the league are a waste of money. I agree 100%. I say this all the time. RB is a young person's position. But as far as drafting another RB, I'm just not sure another mid-to-late round pick is the answer, and I just don't see the Jets investing a high pick at the position. With the new rookie cap, drafting a RB high makes more sense than ever. Sign him for five years, run him into the ground, then draft another one. But it's a position that you can find anywhere. Like any other position, I'd want the team to stay true to their board, and draft a RB if that was the top player on their board. I'd also aggressively bring in UDA's. i suspect this is more about screwing with the Pats (who just signed Marquis Cole) than it is about actually signing the law firm. I fear this, too. Jets have to get over this crap already. It makes them look like the second class organization that they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets would probably be better off going with UDFAs, seeing as how it seems like on a yearly basis teams snatch up UDFA RBs from the Jets practice squad that far outperform any of the Jets actual draft picks at the position.
