Gainzo Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 When did Shipp avg 6 YPC? He played for Arizona for farks sake. Put Turner on the '05 Cards and I can guarantee he wouldn't have 6 YPC average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Pats fan but no homer. madmike is in love with Turners 6 yards per carry last season. The Cards o-line sucks. The Chargers o-line is pretty good. Lets do the math...............................

madmike1 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 His career? All 150 something carries? I'm impressed. He can't get any more carries then he's gotten. He's played behind an all time great. You can't hold that against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has also been "fresh" every time he got the football. Some team will sign Turner to a huge contract and also give a draft pick away. If Turner has 1300 yards for any team I will concede defeat.

Jetlag Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Gainzo - While I'm mildly intrigued by Turner your point about if he was on the Cards is bogus. The Cards are like a Running Back graveyard. The uncertainty in my mind regarding MT is how much has he benefitted from LT beating up on defenses. Also coaches were creating defenses for LT that MT is like a second thought at that time. Then again there's always the Priest Holmes-type possibility.

Any backup RB is gonna have those questions about them. You have to take a chance with any one of those type of guys but sometimes it works out big like Holmes as you mentioned..

ECURB Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 That is all. Turner would be at least a 1200 yard RB for the JETS I repeat, Bring Tunrer to the NYJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharrow Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I'm a Pats fan but no homer. See how he did that, Ecurb? Never admit your homerism, thats how a REAL homer does it. He's just a regular fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachTsurfing Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I don't hold Turner's carries against him, but it makes me think twice about him carrying the load. I know what he did in college, I know what he did with the chargers, but can he do the same thing for the Jets? I would trade our second second round pick for him. If they don't want then they can go to hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Speez Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Greetings to all board members, now to the subject at hand...i think Turner for a second is as good as drafting a running back with one of our seconds...the reality of the situation is that unless we upgrade the O-line and get some road graders that can open up holes to the second tier of the defense, it wont matter who we have in the backfield outside of Leon who can bust open te swing pass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSJ Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I have a feeling the Jets will go after Turner too. As long as they don't give up too much I'm not going to cry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DHJF Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 There's no way Turner becomes a Jet. Washington/Houston are serviceable at the moment. We're looking defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny green balls Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Ok, if the Jets brass thinks Turner is the real deal Im fine giving up a 2nd round pick. I'd hate to give up that 37th pick overall for a RB. Any chance we deal our second 2nd rounder for Turner? Also, is anyone besides me concerned that Turner could be the next Lamont Jordan? A great back up who $hits on opposing defenses when they are tired and the backup is fresh? ...They better make a run at Nate Clements. If we gonna overpay for a position, I dont mind it being a #1 CB. and, whenever the #1 back comes out the D usually plays pass, opening things up further for the change-of-pace.

mangenious420 Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 There's no way Turner becomes a Jet. Washington/Houston are serviceable at the moment. We're looking defense. What the hell makes Houston serviceable? His career avg of 3.5 yards? The fact he can't catch the ball out of the backfield? Cedric Houston sucks, and belongs on the same unemployment line with Barlow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
