It underscores the need for the Jets to trade down and draft at least two offensive linemen in the first three rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also possible for a team have the deepest offensive line and the worst starting offensive line. Those things aren't mutually exclusive.

HelenOfTroy Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 At some point the Jets need to start drafting and developing their own Olinemen....second round, and keep doing it, these guys need to grow together as a cohesive group, not another patchwork of discarded vets. Not for the oline. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Macc could really make his life so much easier. All he needs to do is purchase the rights to PFF, and every time he is about to sign a player, mark their score up on the site, and voila, he will be declared genius on this site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nix, that's not exactly fair. There was major upheaval in Minnesota last year, especially on offense. Tony Sparano, the offensive line coach died in July. After that two, assistant coaches were moved from other positions to become co-offensive line coaches. We should know how those "shared responsibility" things work out. He was injured in mid season, missing two games. The center was ranked dead last in the league. The starting right guard was also ranked very poorly. The offensive coordinator, John DeFilippo was fired in December. You and I both know how important continuity and cohesion are for an offensive line. Tom Compton is a big, 6'6", 315 pound depth signing. He is fast, athletic and has enjoyed good health during his career. He plays several positions and has started and been a sub in this league for six plus seasons in the league. He is experienced and makes sense for the Jets. He is an upgrade from Ijalana and Qvale, that is for sure. And that is why he was signed. More to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last years 60.6 pff grade was an improvement over his past 2 seasons and thru all that upheaval that happened mainly because Minnesota signed Cousins which I didn’t consider he could actually be a good signing.

GreenReaper Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Jets sign an OL! Most likely guard depth only...not C. https://www.ganggreennation.com/2019/3/18/18271861/tom-compton-signed-by-the-jets Compton is a veteran journeyman. He has been in the league since 2012, and the Jets will be his fifth team. He spent 2018 with Minnesota, starting 14 games at guard. I would imagine he projects as the primary backup at both guard spots. Compton doesn’t really solve the issues the Jets have in the starting lineup, but he does profile as a functional depth piece for the Jets. Over the last few years, the Jets’ cast of backups comprising of the Ijalana’s, Qvale’s, Harrison’s, and Dozier’s of the world has been subpar at best and unplayable at worst. This is at least an experienced guy who has some track record of credible play. Even if you don’t want him starting for 16 games, he is better than a lot of the backups teams are running out there in today’s NFL.
