If this 'dwc' fellow hadn't scared me, I might not have realized the amount of money I needed for personal security. There are some serious nut bags out there and having an nfl paycheck really helps insulate you. " 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kid destroyed the SEC during his final year at Ole' Miss more than Chris Herndon did during his final year @ Miami U within the ACC. Robby Anderson was an undrafted gem of a WR and Kenny Yeboah is on the verge of becoming the same but @ TE and this kid Kenny Yeboah imo is 10x more talented than Chris Herndon and super hungry too. Zach Wilson to Kenny Yeboah! “Confidence is contagious. So is lack of confidence.” Vince Lombardi “Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained.” Marie Curie Go get ‘em Jets!

Christian Hackenberg couldn't make the league because he couldn't perform as a 2nd round pick during preseason games and Robby Anderson was an undrafted gem who made the league due to emerging out of nowhere and destroying Preseason ala WELCOME TO PRESEASON. GARBAGE TIME? The kids were fighting for their NFL lives tonight. GARBAGE TIME? These kids were fighting for their families, for themselves and for their NFL futures tonight. GARBAGE TIME? There is no such thing as NFL "garbage time" because you don't make the NFL for being trash players (or else you and me both would've made the NFL) preseason or not. And you're wrong again. These kids all have college degrees and will never "DRIVE TRUCKS FOR AMAZON" regardless if they make the cut or not. Elijah Moore of Ole' Miss is going nuts on Twitter right now and CELEBRATING for his friend Kenny Yeboah because he knows his friend Kenny Yeboah JUST MADE THE TEAM AS A JET!

He makes it so hard for people like him and agree with even when you actually agree with him. I really hope we keep Yeboab. We really have to cut Chris Herndon. I’m so over that guy, I want nothing to do with him. He has done NOTHING through TC and preseason.

This TE group is awful so he may make the 53. That’s his saving grace- the competition on this roster. Making a nice catch on a horribly defended pass shouldn’t be the make or break moment. It didn’t sound as if he had a great camp, and all athletic talent aside, it’s hard to squeeze a raw prospect on the 53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Namath Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Jets fans love bashing our tight ends. Yet we have the number 1 tight end unit in the league through 3 preseason games. Lafleur getting alot of production out of this unit. Like our rb position, te is isnt top heavy but w/ kroft, herndon and yeboah, its solid. These tight ends are going to play a big role in this offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyLV Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Tough call here. Obviously the Jets had a reasonably high draft round grade on him as they gave him a lot of money for an UDFA. We do not have superstars at TE. Saleh prefers to develop players than roll with veterans If you saw the post game speech the team loves the guy I think the Jets keep him and try and develop him more. He is obviously talented. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WR and TE spots will be very difficult to figure out for JD in my opinion. The challenge is that we have a LOT of B- or C+ talent that has to be sorted out with no A or even B+ guys at the TE position. So, do you keep an experienced guy like Griffin over a young but unproven guy like Yeboah? It seems like Wesco may have earned a spot because of his blocking and H-back ability. How many TEs are kept? And, if you consider Wesco a TE then out of Herndon, Kroft, Wesco, Griffin, Yeboah how many can you honestly keep on the roster.... especially if you have a similar problem at WR and want to keep 6 WRs? Davis, Cole, Moore, Crowder, Mims seem like locks to me.... What do you do with V. Smith, Berrios, Jeff Smith, etc. You're going to have to try to sneak one or two of those guys to the PS along with Cager. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He makes the team because he's an extremely talented Rookie who just feasted against your elite SEC Defensive Conference last year during only his 1st year @ Ole' Miss. 7 games. 27 Receptions. 524 Receiving Yards. 19.4 Yards Per Reception. 6 TD Receptions. He was never getting released to begin with (with or without his monster game vs. Philadelphia) and that's because their aren't 53 players on any roster in the NFL who's more talented than Kenny Yeboah; this kid has freakish athleticism for a man of his size and A++ potential.
