Kareem McKenzie, Lamont Jordan, Anthony Becht,Santana Moss,Quincy Carter, Toby Gowin, Jason Ferguson, Josh Evans, James Reed, Jason Glenn, Sam Cowart, Terrell Buckley, Roderick Bryant and Kenyatta Wright. Get ready to add Donnie Abraham or Ray Mickens to this list come June 1st. John Abraham's status is still yet to be determined. You can check all the other 31 teams in The NFL. From year to year, Every team has this type of turnover in their roster. The new Jets. Laveranues Coles,Derrick Blaylock, Jay Fiedler, Barry Gardner, Lance Legree and Micah Knorr.

The Gun Of Bavaria Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Get ready to look towards this year's 10-6 record as a 'near super bowl year'. Between that and Penny's shoulder you can put a fork in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faba Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Micah Knorr will not be our punter-no more 30 yard tops directional punters for this team- Aussie Ben Grahmn hopefully makes the conversion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 i just looked on NYJETS.COM....reed and glenn are not there....not good... They arent there because they are UFA's most likely. They have not been signed by anyone yet, meaning we have as much chance of getting them back as anyone has of signing them, at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 talent wise, this team just isnt as good as last years already. From strictly at a team speed standpoint, its significantly lower. Chad coming off a very average year and a major shoulder surgery, 2005 could be tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 explain how we are significantly slower please.. Not that its neccesarily a bad thing, but arguably our two biggest playmakers are gona In Santana and Lamont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YJF Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 To this point. The Jets have made no effort to resign James Reed, Josh Evans or Jason Glenn. Maybe one of these guys is brought back. That remains to be seen. I think that The Jets didn't like their depth on defense last year. They leaned very heavily on their starters in the front 7. Those guys played alot of snaps. You notice that The Jets defense had some problems late in games wearing down. It's because their starters were on the field alot. More than most teams. There is such a significant drop off in quality from the starters to the backups. Because the starters are premiere players. In the case of guys like James Reed and Jason Glenn. Once they clock in 4 or 5 years of playing experience. They get guaranteed veteran salaries. Jets would probably rather draft guys on the cheap with upside to be the backups than pay 500 to 700 grand a pop for each player. As for Ben Graham. My money is on Micah Knorr making the team. Graham to me is a longshot. I'd like to see him make it. He's got a strong leg but he's never been an NFL punter. This guy could be a complete joke.

faba Posted March 21, 2005 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I value Gainzo's opinion of Ben Graham. He is going to special school for kicking and making every effort to make the transistion. Knorr is JAG I do not want to see as our punter next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YJF Posted March 21, 2005 Author Share Posted March 21, 2005 When you look at The Jets roster. It's a very young team. Jets only have 10 players on the roster who are over 30 years old. 3 of them are kicking specialists, Brien, Gowin and Graham. If The Jets draft well again. They are in good shape moving forward. They don't have any big free agents next season. The only issue is John Abraham. That should be settled. He will either be traded soon, be a big time player next season and get a long term deal or be franchised again next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
