SoFlaJets Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 build the offensive line and they will come....1000 yard RBs.Right now the only guy who has me interested is Turner from San Diego-it would take either a trade or a 1st round pick to get him so I don't think it will happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I'd say one of these two possible deals could and SHOULD occur: 1. Jets trade Vilma to Washington for Portis or 2. Jets trade 2nd round pick this year / future second day draft pick to Washington for Portis I think a lot of us would rather have the second option be the case but if Vilma isn't moved to the outside he has no place in the 3-4 defense at ILB as he will not excell there.

Washington needs to unload on some of their higher salary guys and with Ladell Betts performing well it gives them space to try to unload Clinton. Portis is one of the best backs in the league and he's only 26 years old meaning he's got another 4-6 years left in the tank before we probably see him ride off into the sunset. Give me Clinton Portis anyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jet27 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 No trading Vilma...you have to give him a chance to blend into the 3-4, he is a very good player. And NO to Portis...Turner is more of an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachTsurfing Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 I agree neither for our number one. Turner for one of our seconds, Portis I wouldn't give anything more then a 4th. He can't stay healthy. Vilma, I'm not sure about. If we got a top 15 pick in the 1st round I would do it. Otherwise keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 what exactly has Turner proven in the NFL? What has a top-5 pick proven? What had JMac proven when we traded for him & many shouted out "good trade" b/c we couldn't get a guaranteed better player in that slot? At least Turner's somewhat of a known quantity to the Jets, since Scott coached on San Diego last year. I'm actually right there with CoachT. A 2nd rounder for him (which goes without saying that it means he gets Schott's endorsement) is ok. I'd also be ok with Michael Bush if he lasted that long. Also agree with CoachT on Portis. Not just the injury-prone history. But his contract is no bargain for someone who's proven unreliable: 20073500000.0020085048500.0020096627000.0020107690500.0020118754000.00 Not doubting Portis' talent, but he's just not durable. Ribs with Den, then he wasn't 100% his first year in Wash, then his shoulder & whatever else in '06. Plus it's not like 2-3 years ago. He's had a decent # of carries by now & before this contract is half-over you'll start to notice it in his play (probably). Get some fresh legs in here who will still be fast in his 5th year & won't cost 1/2 this much. Also agree on Vilma. I think we should be able to do better than #15 (if that's the way Mangini wants to go). I could deal with a little lower than that if it included another day one pick. Like #17 in rounds 1 and 3. Wouldn't nitpick too much over it. Unfortunately, Vilma just doesn't play like a first-round talent in the 3-4. If you can replace that with a first-round talent who does, why fight it?

ECURB Posted January 10, 2007 Share Posted January 10, 2007 The whole thing with Vilma is, maybe he can play good but the D-line is holding him back. Even if thats not the case, he runs the defense... a hard one to run... who do we have that can step into that role without our defense taking 2 steps back?

Which would be a better overall team? (and there is no right/wrong; it's all opinion & Mangini doesn't exactly ask for our counsel anyway): ILB Vilma OLB Hobson/new acquisition (A.Thomas/draft/etc) or ILB Hobson/Chatham OLB new acquisition (A.Thomas/draft/etc) HB Marshawn Lynch (and in either situation, still have 3 picks in first 2 rounds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
