Maxman Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 On the front page now. This could be interesting. He was been out a long time. But this is a great kid who is hungry to play football. Before his injuries he was a CAN'T MISS prospect. Kudos to the Jets for pursuing this. This defines low risk, high reward. http://www.jetnation.com/?p=863 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Wow. This would be a very interesting signing if he does chose to come along and join the Jets. At 6'4ish, 280ish, he is sure to be projected in Mangini's eyes (or at least I would think he would be) as a 3-4 OLB. Should be interesting, I hope he decides to sign on to see what he's got. He's a young 32, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 This is a joke, right? It is serious. He is coming back. Can't guarantee he will sign here but the Jets are interested. I wouldn't put it on the front page if it wasn't legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 Thats how we're gonna beat the Pats. With players off the garbage heap. Yes, a contact at the minimum is their game plan for next season. Cmon Mike. I released this story because I was told it was going to be news very soon. That is why we didn't sit on it. From the non-football side it is a great story. Great kid. As a football story he would get a contract and have a chance to compete in camp. Not a huge risk either way. It is a really solid move in my opinion. They don't have much to lose at all here.

SoFlaJets Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I am becoming convinced the longer this drought on FA signings goes on,that the Jets have other plans on how they hope to improve this team. I like how these guys think outside the convential "wisdom" box.I forsee second teir FA's to be here (Banta-Cain types) and for us to actually pull the trigger on the Vilma deal if we can move up on the board AND get a starter to replace him. Let's see how it all plays out before we criticize too much...I truly believe we're going to be happy with the results-I also think Coles could be traded-gut feeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faba Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 This regime is trying all options and sources to try to put a winning team on the field. A low risk option if Andre does sign- like in basball now all teams bring in nonroster guys to try to get lucky. And it was definitely not right to post this at JI without giving any credit to Max and jetnation as the source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Defense Stats YEAR TEAM G TOT SOLO AST PD SACK FF REC INT YDS TD 1998 ARI 16 57 44 13 3 5 1 0 0 0 0 1999 ARI 11 26 21 5 3 2 1 0 1 23 0 2000 ARI 9 13 10 3 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 Career 36 96 75 21 6 8.0 3 0 1 23 0 Anything he can bring to the table will be great. Between this news and the David Bowens rumors, it looks like Mangini is going the value route to find guys for the 3-4. It makes sense; why overspend on a DE when a lot of money is already dedicated to Shaun Ellis AND we have plenty of draft picks to work with? If we do "overspend" anywhere on the field, it would be at the nose tackle. Unfortunately, there isn't much available on the FA market there.
