Barkus Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/10/11/jets-work-out-fullback-marcel-reece/ This guy was very solid with the raiders. Not sure if he has anything left. Could contribute as short yardage back I think. Good receiver out of the backfield also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnknownJetFan Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Yes, I noticed after we got rid of the FB position it seems we have no holes to run through. Another brilliant effing move. Lets keep 4 TE's on the roster one of which is Bowman,who is as useless as a 3 dollar bill and have no FB to lead block for our RBs especially for Forte who could use that help right now.

peekskill68 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Marcel Reece was a pretty good football player. Now he is 31. I'm not sure signing another 30+ year RB would be a move in the right direction... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the point was more that, at the time, they didn't let them go in favor of others. They let them go in favor of nobody. Then, after weeks later, it occurred to them maybe they should replace them before leaving a void. Jenkins could be a serious upgrade to Amaro, but it's dumb luck he was available so early in the season. Bohanon was meh, but trying to run a more scat back than power back up the gut with backup linemen and no FB? With the big upgrade in opponents on top of that with our garbage QB, is it any wonder it's working so infrequently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raideraholic Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Makes no sense that the Jets would sign Marcel Reece. Simple reason he isn't a good blocker. You can't block ( See Amaro) there isn't a place for you in there offense. Marcel Reece was Mark Davis wingman , and that couldn't save his job.

PepPep Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 12 hours ago, August said: Cut Amaro realize your mistake now go after Austin Seferian-Jenkins Cut Bohannon realize your mistake now sign Marcel Reese Yeah, I'm not so sure it was a mistake. I feel like Amaro simply could not cut it (and I had high hopes ever since he was drafted), he was dropping a lot of balls. The Jets were not going to give a 'receiving' TE who can't block or catch a spot on the roster. At least ASJ caught both passes thrown to him in the limited action he saw. I don;t think cutting Bhannon was much of a mistake either. They are looking at RBs like Reese for short yardage situations, probably in the red zone. Bohannon was certainly not that. They tried handing the ball off to him in the preseason, he was no good running the ball. He's not a bad run blocker, but he's not much of a runner. Reese is much better in that regard.

jbt Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Steelers signed RB Karlos Williams to their practice squad. With his suspension ending last week, Williams was expected to work out for the Bills, the team that cut him over the summer, but Buffalo canceled the workout. Pittsburgh visited with Williams back in August after his release from the Bills. His brother, Vince, is also on the Steelers. On the practice squad, Williams will provide depth and maybe be brought along as Le'Veon Bell's eventual No. 2 possibly as soon as next season with DeAngelo Williams' contract running dry.

ASJ had a block in last week's game that was better than anything Amaro has ever done. He also showed his athleticism on that sideline catch. Amaro's clumsy ass could never do that.
