NIGHT STALKER Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Drafting a player like Larry Johnson even before Holmes became a MASH unit. They also deserve credit for taking the BBQ man off of our hands as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also deserve credit for taking the BBQ man off of our hands as well. The Johnson thing is a good point. Where was he selected? Somewhere around 10 or 11 if memory serves me correctly. I am sure they could have went defense at that time. But kudos for taking the weapon they call LJ and letting Herm ruin him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faba Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Especially with the past history of Penn. St running backs going against you The Chiefs will still lack defensively to be a factor- bank on it with or without Herm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoFlaJets Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 some of these great guys like Priest Holmes and what's that guy's name from Jax are very effective when they're healthy-unfortunately they never seem to be able to last a whole year.Ya gotta admit JFF-like him or not Curtis has been a very durable back.As for Herman Edwards-he'll have wrecked that team too before he gets the inevitable axe-with his propensity for neglecting the offensive line and drafting CBs and safties one third of the time..

Terry Bradway was the GM, not Herman Edwards. Bradway is still with the Jets, a 'super' scout. Bradway neglected the offensive line, letting Kareem McKenzie go, failing to draft a first day lineman other than McKenzie, drafting what seems to be dozens of safeties after his blowing the Ed Reed pick for workout warrior Bryan Thomas when Reed was on the board. Blaming Herman Edwards for five years of poor drafts is like blaming Hillary Clinton for the mess in Iraq because she voted for authorization. You have to get over Herman Edwards, just like Jennifer Anniston has to get over Angela Jolie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boozer76 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 When the Chiefs OL starts falling aprt due to age, Johnson is going to become very pedestrian in terms of RB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to get over Herman Edwards, just like Jennifer Anniston has to get over Angela Jolie. they were partners along with the scouts but if you think that Edwards had no say in who or what position they were gonna draft then you know a lot less than I thought you did rajensen-I HAVE no anti-Herm agenda and never did until I saw what he did (eventually) to this team-err THAT team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure they could have went defense at that time. But kudos for taking the weapon they call LJ and letting Herm ruin him. they took him much later,like at 26 or 27 because the steelers traded up to 16 to take polamalu. And to be fair,Priest Holmes had missed the last few games of the season with what was said to be a career threatening hip injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinstar2 Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 What exactly did he do to the Jets.Injuries are apart of football unless the team is coached by Herman Edwards.Over the last 3 yrs,no team has had more injuries than the Patriots.Is Belichek running a soft camp that leads to all those injuries .

CoachTsurfing Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 the combination of Bradway and Herm are the reason this team drafted so poorly. A head coach has alot of say in the drafting of players. Maybe not the final say but he has his share of the blame. However, you can't blame Herm for everything. The Jets did have quite a few injuries the past few years.

You know where you are with Coach Jerk Chicken, Lia. Nonetheless, we need pictures of Jennifer Anniston and Angelina Jolie going at it;so provide them and all is forgiven.

JerryK Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 When the Chiefs OL starts falling aprt due to age, Johnson is going to become very pedestrian in terms of RB's. Was just about to say the same thing. We'll see what he can do behind an Edwards line. Sincerely, Chad's hand and shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
