MykePM Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 35 minutes ago, Warfish said: Are there many younger mauler Right Tackles sitting at home unemployed at current that JD could pursue? Eric Fisher is a couple of years younger and still a free agent, although I think he’s been pretty exclusively a left tackle since his rookie season, and I’m not sure he qualifies as a “mauler”. I thought I saw an article at some point that at least speculated that the Jets might be in contact with him, but I haven’t seen anything more about it.

Jethead Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Glad to see JD exploring options. More veteran OT beef is needed. Reiff would be solid choice if he's 100% healthy. Curious where things stand with Eric Fischer. I think he would be a good option as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE BARON Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 2 hours ago, HawkeyeJet said: Would be a home run depth signing. He’s an average starting tackle any more, but that would make him a superb back up. Where did he play college ball? I love it. JD shows he's got the smarts and the drive. This would be a key signing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm concerned until Becton is done with rehab he can't start. Sorry, but that is a hot garbage take: We don't need a starting RT. Becton is ready now. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FootballLove Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Two things: A guy who spent most of his career at LT may not be a solid option at RT. For example, if iron man D'Brick were a FA after playing LT for the Jets, he'd be a terrible signing for a starting RT spot. Second, It seems JD signs a lot of players to 1 yr contracts....always looking to upgrade the following FA period. I know Moses wanted a starting gig, but did JD even try (seriously try) to resign him? Or was JD content with letting Moses walk and using that opportunity to try and get just a bit better? Seems to be his M.O. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is bringing him in now sending a message to him that they’re not going to be held hostage by his lack of participation. And becton saw last year that the jets essentially did replace him just fine with a FA signing. Hey how about this. Maybe theyre doing it because Fant hasnt been at a single OTA?

Reiff went on IR last December with an ankle, and will turn 33 this year, so I’m not sure if he’s my first choice. I’d prefer a mauler of a RT, because that’s what the Jets need more than a true swing tackle with Fant and Becton both capable of playing the left side.

Brandon Shell is a power man player not a fit for the gase inside zone certainly not a good fit for the outside zone He plays well "in the phone booth" he's also hurt all the time Riley reiff btw is similarly not reliable. Not like Moses who was durable. Reiff's basically washed at this point. And so is Eric Fisher. That Achilles basically ended his career Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could also be a position that has to wait until the final cut downs. Did we not learn anything about Brandon Shell as he wasn’t offered a contract by the Jets when he was a free agent and was part of the problem with Seattle o line leading to Wilson’s departure No thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
