SenorGato Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Hopefully Andre Smith and a Charles Woodson or Harrison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre Smith and the Bengals aren't going any where with their negotiations.They think he's fat and lazy and scared to pay him without any protection (low guarantee & weight protection). But if we were to pick him up and move Howard to guard along with draft Warford, that would give us a top 10 (or possibly higher) offensive line.

As opposed to the top 10 offensive line we already have? Regardless, I've seen the idea of sliding Howard inside mentioned a lot on here, I know he's played TE before, but has he ever played guard before or worked out there?? I'm actually curious as I'm not so sure he's suitable at his size to just slide inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neckdemon Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 What does Idzik have in mind? Dbrickashar Ferguson saves the #Jets $5.128 million by converting his base salary into a prorated bonus maybe nothing. any cap space we carry over gets added to our cap next year. i don't expect too much this year. next year should be when idzik makes some big moves.

If our line were given overalls I would think Mangold would get an 94-96 with Brick getting 88-90 and Howard getting somewhere in the high 70's. Compare that with other teams and that's no where near a top 10 unit. maybe nothing. any cap space we carry over gets added to our cap next year. i don't expect too much this year. next year should be when idzik makes some big moves. If that was his drift then that makes little sense on his part. As we don't need roll over money for next season with all that camp space. The deal we did with Brick guaranteed him a spot of the team next season along with keep him on the team in 2015 if healthy. Also to add on, Izzy renegotiated his deal and didn't restructure it.

HessStation Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 If anything I think it would mean signing Moore for one more year...then go after weapons next 3-4 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare that with other teams and that's no where near a top 10 unit. I'm not sure if these are Madden rankings or some overall individual-styled rankings given out by some site, but PFF ranked it the 3rd best line in the league. Now, I have issues with how PFF does some of their offensive-line statistical analysis and do not believe we are a top 5 offensive line, not by any stretch, but it's further proof that our Oline is hardly the detriment you're making it out to be. Can we improve? definitely. Is it this most glaring need on our team? Not really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for PFF, Greene is the best short yardage back in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAD_Brooklyn Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 Seems like most of this is going towards our rookie pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 If anything I think it would mean signing Moore for one more year...then go after weapons next 3-4 rounds. I would love that, Moore has been a good soldier for a long time. Let him compete, the price will be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSJ Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Schefter was just on ESPN Radio and kinda hinted that if the Jets pick Geno Smith here they will actively try to move Sanchez (trade or cut). He just said that Sanchez's spot on the team would be severely in jeopardy if the Jets get Smith here. fwiw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 What does Idzik have in mind?
