NIGHT STALKER Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 To be honest, I don't like any of the FA's that are out there...let's not confuse who's the best of the lot with just being the best if you know what I mean. I think the best FA out there is our own John Abraham and I don't want him back for reasons we have discussed before...some agree and some don't on that subject.

Nick Ferraro Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Pope is a serviceable player. He would help the Jets DL depth. For the right price, he would be a good pick up as a backup. I hope they aren't thinking of him as an every-down player. He's not that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I hope they aren't thinking of him as an every-down player. He's not that. That is exactly what they did last year when they signed Lance Legree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonysxl1200c Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Ht: 6-3 Wt: 300 Position: DT Date of Birth: 1/27/1978 Experience: 4 College: Virginia 2004: Pope’s play on the interior of Denver’s defensive line in 16 games (15 starts) made it difficult for Broncos opponents to run the ball in 2004. He totaled 30 tackles (22 solo), one sack (-2 yds.) and one pass breakup. He notched three tackles (2 solo) in the Broncos’ regular-season finale vs. Ind. (1/2), helping the team secure a playoff berth with a win against the Colts. 2005: Played in the first game of the year, and was inactive for the rest of the season until the last game of the year, in which he also played. Anyone know what happened to him last year? Was he injured, or just inactive since the Broncos signed the entire Cleveland D-Line last year?
