Patriot Killa Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 This is a terrific signing. He played for Bowles in Arizona and played damn well. I wanted him last offseason but he bolted to the Colts and I guess that didn’t work out in the 4-3 scheme.(ironically now they switch to 3-4) Awesome depth.

He's not a great cover LB , but is a beast vs the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRy56 Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Another good LB. We've got a good young LB core brewing. I just wish we could find ourselves a real pass rusher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not an everydown LB who should have gone in the 4th round to play like a Nickle backer role on passing downs. I get he wasn't exceptional in coverage to start but improving there and instincts should come in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Good pick up I guess, I think we feel the need to spend that cap money, wish they would have waited for june cuts to be honest. Also a remarkable indictment on picking a fing ilb at 21 in the draft. Decent ilbs shake loose all the time,. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriot Killa Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Just now, Thai Jet said: He played with Cincy last year but only played 9 games. Hmm..sure did..could of swore he went to the Colts. Still really like this signing. We need a coverage LB-er even if the guy isn’t on the field for 3 downs. Darron Lee is suppose to be that guy and it seems they are treating him like he is. Hopefully he can improve. He did get better last year from the year before if anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent enough signing assuming he was cheap. As ThaiJet said, it was the Bengals not the Colts. He played for Bowles in 2013 and 2014, but he didn't really blossom til Bowles left. His two best years were easily 2015 and 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARodJetsFan Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Quote Jets signed ILB Kevin Minter and WR Charles Johnson. Minter should have a chance to compete for early-down snaps at inside linebacker for the Jets. He is a non-factor on passing downs. Johnson was out of the NFL last year. He will slide onto the end of a deep Jets wideout depth chart. http://www.rotoworld.com/sports/nfl/football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot Killa Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 Get me Hankins and I think our D is set as far as FA goes. Add a pass rusher in the draft and I might even start to get giddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently they signed the WR from Grand Valley State that has not had a TD or 100 yard game since 2014. He only had 20/232 in 2016.
