flgreen Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I still say BAP in draft, not going to win in 2013, get the best players you possibly can regardless of position. I think one of the good things about this draft is, that the BAP will often be at a need position for the Jets. This draft seems to be rich in TE’s, interesting pass rushers, , OL, mid round WR’s, and mid round RB’s. Very light top end, but some nice players later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 According to the twittersphere, Victor Butler is making his rounds to the Steelers today. However, unless the Jets were creating space to sign this guy, he's probably going to be too rich for us as well, as he's rumored to be asking for 5-5.5 million per season. That's absolutely a reasonable contract for someone of his talent, I just am not sure Idzik is willing to spend a third of our freed cap on one player, even if he fills a huge position of need and could be a bargain if he turns out to be as good as a lot of people think he will be.

If they can play well now, or ever, is certainly a major question, but I suspect they are going with Cumberland, the Aussie, plus a 2nd rounder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only has what, 7 starts? Doesn't sound like an Idzik hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#27TheDominator Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 They were having Antwan Barnes in. He was a guy that Rex had in Baltimore and will presumably come cheap. Had 11 sacks in SD in 2011. Presumably a pass rush specialist, but had passes defensed in multiple years so he has probably actually dropped into coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Barnes is a solid role player. Had my eye on him since his rookie year. Really seemed to fit in with the Ravens' attitude. I'm glad they're giving him a look. Not sure I'm into Butler at 5 million, but I only know the basics about him. If Rex thinks he can start in his D then sure.

Greenseed4 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Sean Smith just signed with KC, 3 year, $18M with $11M gauranteed. This can only help that some of the top-tier CBs are signing for reasonable contracts. Revis has to be realizing just exactly how ridiculous his demands are.

I never noticed him much, but my Dad did and thought he looked decent. This was late preseason. My Dad knows the game and while he gets the papers, he stays off the net and judiciously avoids talk radio and sports TV. He just watches games, preseason and whatever camp footage he comes across and I think he goes to camp now and then. He thought the guy looked decent. I found it interesting because he didn't know much about him and doesn't generally say that about players. Of course he is looking at the guy from an UDFA perspective, but still.

I actually thought, from what I saw of him, that he looked like he belonged. Not that he was a star or the next Antonio Gates, but that he had the ability to be worthy of a roster spot for a number of years. For someone who never played the game of football that told me a lot. I think if brought along, he could be a guy who could possibly max out as a TE2 and possible red-zone target, which for where he came from, that's as much as can be hoped for really.

SenorGato Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 @Steiny31 Per source, Landry really wanted to remain a #Jet. After Indy offered him the deal, he brought it back to Idzik to see if he could match it. Laron Landry is probably my favorite one year Jet everz. Good to hear on Hayden Smith. Only opinion I have on him is that he's big and athletic, two things that generally do well in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faba Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Steven Jackson to sign with Falcons Updated: March 14, 2013, 5:24 PM ET ESPN.com news services 986 262 2K EMAIL PRINT The Atlanta Falcons agreed to a three-year contract with free-agent running back Steven Jackson on Thursday, the team announced on its Twitter account. The Falcons had released running back Michael Turner, the team's starter last season, before the start of free agency. As expected, Jackson voided his contract with the St. Louis Rams on Thursday, making the 29-year-old an unrestricted free agent. He said last week that he wanted to start for whichever team he signed with in free agency. "For where I'm at, going into Year 10, I'm not ready to step back and just become a primary backup or a reduced-role guy to be part of a running back by committee," Jackson said on Sirius XM NFL Radio last week. "I still have a lot left in my tank. I still have a lot left to offer to a team. We're not talking about someone that's in Year 12 or 13." Jackson negotiated for the chance to opt out of his contract at the end of last season with one year left on the deal. He stands at 10,135 yards and needs 2,144 yards to equal Marshall Faulk, who Jackson replaced with the Rams, to get into the top 10. Jackson also has 3,324 career receiving yards, including 38 receptions and 321 yards last season. A three-time Pro Bowler, Jackson has rushed for at least 1,000 yards in eight straight seasons. According to ESPN Stats & Information, only three players in NFL history have a longer streak of consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons than Jackson's current run: Emmitt Smith (11 from 1991-01), Curtis Martin (10 from 1995-04) and Barry Sanders (10 from 1989-98). All are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unbanmadmike1 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Manish Mehta @MMehtaNYDN Sounds like Dolphins aren't willing to give TE Dustin Keller a multi-year deal at this point. #nyj So the team who has been giving out crazy contracts all offseason won't give Keller basically anything, just as i've been saying.
