bobbyjet69 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Guys this Pace guy is the 2nd coming of Bryan Thomas http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/6354/career;_ylt=Ag.IokCqfx4QE.X9OlFvXfr.uLYF He was invincible for 4 years then in his contract year he becomes a monster?.. this guy is poison and he's commanding large money. I wouldn't touch this guy. I've been saying this for days now!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gangreenman Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 I've been saying this for days now!! I think that this whole "He's BT part 2" thing is very misleading. BT is much better suited for the 3/4 then the 4/3... Problem is he got moved to the wrong side last season and didnt work as hard over the offseason. Pace is a much better player in the 3-4 as well and I'd say that both him and BT could have great years again next season. P.S. 106 posts in under three hrs... This thread may be compettition with the infamous "Im ready to be a mod" thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jet fan stuck in maine! Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I've been saying this for days now!! I'm thinking like you, but you just have to wonder what if Pace could be the real deal we'll see him twice a year with the fins and may kick ourselves in the ass.

Ghost Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Like I said it's a huge risk, I just don't want to miss our on a player that can apply pressure and possibly take us to another level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quess the question is do we take the risk, or go on into the draft without a new OLB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I quess the question is do we take the risk, or go on into the draft without a new OLB? If sign Pace it'll be a less player we'll draft. I'm a huge McFadden fan, and I still think he's the player we need to draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Honestly, I'll take this risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faba Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Good question? The point I am making is all the comments on whether we should sign him and I bet most people have never even seen him play a game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitonti Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 What Calvin Pace adds the ability to cover RB/TE AND rush the passer note this is a very young good prospect who is SMARTLY directing his own career he knows he's best in a 3-4 so eliminated TEN, PHI and other likely bidders put this player with Bryan Thomas it would seriously address pass rush problems... remember that Jenkins was really like an early expensive draft pick, not a free agent pickup, the Jets have really only signed Faneca so far, I expect Pace/Woody maybe both before their early activity is complete. oh and for the record I've seen this player play live and he impressed me at the time. granted it was one game several years ago but I remember Pace making plays and wondered if he would have been on the board would the Jets have taken him over Bryan Thomas he seems to have a better nasty streak than BT. both together would help each other in this defense.

But, then again, if Gholston comes on like he is projected, it could open up BT also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasonJet Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Gholston in the middle, you want me to have nightmares? If we sign Pace and draft Gholsten, there will be a 3-way compettition between Thomas, Pace, and Gholston for the 3 OLB spots. We do need an ILB also though now that Vilma is gone. Isn't that what David Harris is for? I think we could use a replacement for Hobson though. And I think I would rather draft Gholston over signing Pace.
