Smizzy Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Jets | Team has some interest in T. Bell Thu, 10 Aug 2006 06:16:44 -0700 Tom Rock, of Newsday, reports the New York Jets have some interest in Denver Broncos RB Tatum Bell. The team may need a running back if RB Curtis Martin (knee) is sidelined for the start of the season. Jets | Team has some interest in Pinner Thu, 10 Aug 2006 06:18:09 -0700 Tom Rock, of Newsday, reports the New York Jets have some interest in Detroit Lions RB Artose Pinner. The team may need a running back if RB Curtis Martin (knee) is sidelined for the start of the season. Jets | Deal for Shipp not in the works Thu, 10 Aug 2006 06:19:05 -0700 Tom Rock, of Newsday, reports the New York Jets have been linked to Arizona Cardinals RB Marcel Shipp, but Shipp's agent, Brad Blank, said he doubted such a deal was in the works. The Jets are looking for running back insurance in case RB Curtis Martin (knee) is sidelined for all or part of 2006. Ill take Tatum Bell in a hearthbeat and will gladly send a 2nd rd pick for him.

DireJet38 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Tatum Bell has trouble shedding the first tackler. He has a small frame and even though he put on a mere 6 lbs. in the offseason his blocking isn't something to be desired. He is in a nice situation in Broncoland (when he gets the carries) with that O-line and I believe it makes him look a lot better than he truly is. Currently this guy is getting beat out by an undrafted rookie, and ron dayne. Shannahan knows his running backs better than any coach in the NFL (if we can all forget the maurice 'the assasin' clarett pick) and if he sees Bell suited primarily as a thrid down back there is no reason to give up a second rounder or any draft pick for him. The research has already been done, he will struggle even worse in NY behind a shoddy line in comparrison to rb heaven in Denver. Blaylock has shown the same flashes that Bell has while filling the void in KC. In my opinion they are both RBs who were products of a highly tuned and efficient system. Why pick up tatum bell when we already have a comparable version on the roster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why pick up tatum bell when we already have a comparable version on the roster? I pretty much agree, except he's not getting beat out by an undrafted rookie and Ron Dayne. When they elevated Mike Bell, they dropped Dayne to third. I mean being beaten out by an undrafted rookie free agent is one thing, but Ron Dayne? From what I've seen of him, he's more of a power back than Blaylock, but not enough to make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harris5214 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 a 2nd round pick for a product of the denver system who hasnt even rushed for 1000 yards? yikes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlag Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Tatum Bell is the only RB that's been reasonably mentioned on this board as a new option. This kid has got the tools and he has shown it since his days at Oklahoma St. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raffyD Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 I don't know much about Bell except that Mike Anerdson was better than him last year, ran harder and more determined than Bell on a regular basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterNorth09 Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Bell, Pinner, Shipp? Those guys all blow. So much for the Jets' "Three-Headed Monster" of Blaylock, Houston and Martin you guys were raving abuot. We could have had Joseph Addai or Lendale White but no we had to draft Center at 29 and trade down for a scrub QB. Let the chaos begin... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
