Smizzy Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Jets | Team looking for No. 3 receiver Wed, 21 Mar 2007 20:00:05 -0700 Rich Cimini, reporting for the Sporting News, reports the New York Jets need to find a No. 3 option in their passing game. Starters WR Laveranues Coles and Jerricho Cotchery are fine, but they need someone who can attack the middle of the field. That would loosen the outside coverage on Coles and Cotchery and make life easier for QB Chad Pennington. Neither TE Chris Baker, WR Tim Dwight, nor WR Brad Smith have stepped up so far. The Jets could pick a receiver or tight end on the second day of the draft. Sweet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afosomf Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 The Kid from New Hampshire please. David Ball Blows!!! He is too short and too slow, he is not tough like Sherbet.

124 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Why would they be looking for their #3 guy on Day 2? Wouldn't you want a guy who could step in right away? Brad Smith appears to be the future #3, but maybe not if these reports are true. Anyways, if we can find a guy who can be a PR in the draft, Tim Dwight is as good as gone it seems. JMac too.

SoFlaJets Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I wonder what it would take to get Eric Moulds to play for us if not him I would seriously consider Troy Brown-he's better and more durable than Tim Dwight was last year.Hey it might turn Garb into a Jets fan once and for all too....

Sperm Edwards Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Jets | Team looking for No. 3 receiver Wed, 21 Mar 2007 20:00:05 -0700 Rich Cimini, reporting for the Sporting News, reports the New York Jets need to find a No. 3 option in their passing game.

That would loosen the outside coverage on Coles and Cotchery and make life easier for QB Chad Pennington. Neither TE Chris Baker, WR Tim Dwight, nor WR Brad Smith have stepped up so far. The Jets could pick a receiver or tight end on the second day of the draft. Well as of July-August last year he didn't think much of Cotchery either. So it seems the logic is keep drafting WR's until one steps up as a rookie. Everyone knew Smith was not a WR in college & would take a little time. What you don't do is say "I give up" after his rookie season & first-ever as a WR. Keep in mind, this is 1 reporter's opinion, not the team's opinion. Personally I think we'll unload JMac if we can, even if it's for a 7th-rounder. Don't know if that's best, as it leaves us thin & day-two WR's are hardly a lock to contribute anything at all as rookies. I think we'll take a WR on day two, but not on day one. Even if we get a good one he's not going to start any time soon, and with day one picks you hope to find a starter or at least a major contributor within a year. We do not, and likely will not, run a high percentage of 3 WR sets (let alone 4-5). So any rookie will also see limited action whether he's drafted in round 1 or round 6. I would have rather grabbed McDonald. He was cheap enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatcatxl Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 that sounds like an opinion to me... "he reports they need to", not that they are looking or that "sources" say they are looking for them. It's the middle of the offseason and he needs something to write. It happens. Im sure they at least want smith to go out and try to earn that spot, because the more he's on the field the less the defense keys on him looking for a 'slash' play.
