JetsFanatic Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Brad Smith - Rex and Tanny totally under-rated his importance to the offense by letting him go as a free agent while they foolishly were chasing Nnamdi Asomugha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one season with over 1,000 yards, not once did he have 10 TD’s in a year not a single all-pro or even pro-bowl. Great story, good player for sure but the way he’s treated around here you would think he was some type of all time great. He was appropriately known as “The Flashlight” For those reasons he’s my favorite Median player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter the topic... players, coaches... you gloomy Gus, you! Chrebet was a pretty good #2 WR for us for a while. Not elite in any way but good, so I think he qualifies as an upper end of this newly created "median" rating. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lith Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Not sure he even qualifies as a mediocre player, and I know he is identified more with the Dolphins than Jets, but I gotta go with Jay Fiedler. Only NFL player to graduate from my High School (Oceanside High). And although there is no data tracking this, I am pretty confident when I say he is the only NFL player to be bar mitzah'd by the same rabbi that I was. Not only that, but he is the Jets all time career leader in QB rating among QBs. Only threw 13 passes, but his Jet passer rating of 113.3 is highest for any Jet QB. He is only surpassed by Brad Smith at 119.6. Former Oceanside Sailor (and Temple Avodah congregant) Jay Fiedler. 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasty to me was solid but never among the leagues best, Glenn was one of the best one play that I remember (no, not the infamous "clock play" in which Marino tricked rookie Aaron Glenn) was on ST when Glenn returned a missed field goal (it dropped in the end zone away from the goal posts) for a TD.
