rkw522 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 The Jets have three very good corners, but what happens if one goes down with injury? Do the Jets have a solid corner that would be able to fill that spot? This will be a true competition where the best man wins which is always exciting. Here is the article going into further detail. http://t.co/H2U3NWOo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoicsentry Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 The Jets have upgraded at quite a few positions this offseason, but cornerback has slipped under the radar a bit. We don't have the same depth we used to have with Coleman, Lowery, Cole, etc. I think the team likes Lankster for the #4 spot though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pointman Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Corner is the only spot that we don't have a problem.* *hoping Revis stays on the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkw522 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 I agree I think Lankster will be the #4 corner but his stats are barely anything. I hope he can play at the level Mike Westhoff says he can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedin Green Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I think after his season last year the team is very happy with Wilson and so essentially they're not going to have anyone on this team that, barring injury, is going to make it past a permanent #4 on the depth chart (unlike past years, when Wilson was splitting time at nickel with others). That itself will limit some of their options, as certain players won't be interested in that lack of opportunity while the Jets likely won't be interested in spending all that much money on such a position. On top of that I think the team likes both Lankster and Trufant, who have each been with the team for a little while now, and have plenty of other young guys to fight it out and show what they've got in camp. I also think the top 3 being so locked in already helps them be less concerned that even if they don't like what they see from the rest of these guys in camp, they can grab someone off the scrap heap at the end of camp and be just fine.

TNJet Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 It sounds like Lankster and Steed have the best upside. I was thinking Josh Bush would play some corner actually. Hmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonehands Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I think you may see Drew Coleman at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billo83 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I think you may see Drew Coleman at some point. Thought he signed somewhere else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larz Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 every team struggles with 4th WR's and CB's because the good ones want big dollars, so you go with young and cheap guys or retread vets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 No position gets a bigger overreaction from fans...especially the Jets (probably due to Revis) but when one of these guys give up a big play it's like, man he sucks dogsh*t. But my point I guess is Cro and Wilson are really good. Just remember that when one gives up a touchdown lol. I hope Steed proves to be the 4th guy.

rkw522 Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 The whole problem is what is one of them goes down? Revis, Cro, Wilson, could Lankster or Steed step up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
