SayNoToDMC Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 good ****, I didn't know much about this guy prior to us drafting him but after watching how intense he is on the field and how humble he seems off it I'm excited to see what kind of weapon he can be for the Jets. Off to see the new Batman, I had tickets last night but when I got there at 9 to drink at Chilis for the 12 o'clock showing and saw people including but not limited to a shirtless bat man in underwear. I knew I was going to wind up sitting next to someone like him and scalped my tickets when all the showings sold out for 50$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drago Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I have this feeling about keller that even though he is sort of a misfit position on an offense with a second year starting QB...he will still be a great draft pick. I'm guessing around 25 to 30 catches this year and then substatially more in his sophmore campaign. Sucks that he wears #81 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to see it tonight as well. That is if my house doesn't flood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Jet Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 The Jets have a history of getting their picks signed on time so I was not worried. I was in shock when camped opened and Revis was still unsigned. Most unusual for our Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
124 Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Solid job by the organization. Five down, one to go. Hopefully this won't turn out to be another Revis case like it was with Gholston, but according to NewYorkJets.com the talks are heating up. There should be a deal in place by the 24th, in my opinion, because Tannenbaum has an excellent track record of getting his players signed by Camp (only one - Revis - has missed time in Camp because of a contract issue since Mr.T was working with contracts).

Irish Jet Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Great job of getting him signed, can't wait to get a look at this guy in pre-season. Hopefully Gholston will follow shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 You don't want anyone to miss camp. But Keller is important. They can get a good look at him and see how best to maximize his talents (i.e. get a feel for where his blocking is at and what they can do with him).
