Mister Morals Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Dear Friends, You can discuss the draft if you like, but I do not believe that should be judged at this point. In addition, the season is young so things can change. As for the other transactions: Trading of Vilma and Robertson (was that a trade?), addition by subtraction. Calvin Pace---no blunder here Alan Faneca---no blunder here Damian Woody---not a blunder, not a big upgrade as of yet, but cannot call a blunder Kris Jenkins---no blunder here Brett Favre---no blunder here Tony Richardson-? RB has cement legs so who knows Extending Chris Baker---that was recent, correct? That is a blunder. Bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was given a big roster bonus for NEXT YR, so the Jets are forced to decide by 3/1/09 if he's in the plans (and give him the cash) or let him walk (and not give him the cash). Actually this was an awesome move. #1 blunder... Gholston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JETSFAN5180 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 The NYJETS lack a big-time LB the Ray Lewis,Brian Urlacher,Shane Meriman type.This is why I miss Vilma who was a also a defensive genius and field leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilma is a nice guy. Not in the mold of any of those guys. Not an impact player. Not a game plan changer. I don't think he was a genius or a great leader at the NFL level. Certainly was at UM. I was 110% by his selection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aec4 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Here is why Gholston is blunder #1. Before the 2007 season, we spent BIG COIN on Bryan Thomas. He had a bad season, sure, but before the draft, they knew that he had changed. Before the draft this year, we spent BIGGER COIN on Calvin Pace... Sure, you can never have enough depth at OLB in the 3-4, but you can only spend so much on a position too... s o now we had to give #6 money to another OLB! That's a lot of coin in OLB.

Lil Bit Special Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Biggest Blunders: 1. New Flight crew uniforms. Nice diapers girls. 2. Raising ticket prices after a 4-12 season. 3. Not having real competition for Graham and Nuugggee. 4. Sutton is still here. 5. Not trading Chad in April 6. Curtains around the spirals 7.

drago Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Vilma is a nice guy. Not in the mold of any of those guys. Not an impact player. Not a game plan changer. I don't think he was a genius or a great leader at the NFL level. Certainly was at UM. I was 110% by his selection. as most people did, i liked vilma as a person but he just wasn't an impact linebacker. After people started calling him out for being very weak on blitzes i started watching him much closer. Hate to say it but those "haters" were spot on. Vilma is almost alergic to getting a sack. To me, in order to be a big time defender of any kind, you almost have to be able to get to the QB regardless of what the defense does to scheme against you. To scheme against Vilma is almost laughable, all you needed was a fullback or a big running back to make sure that New York's middle linebacker stayed a good 6 feet from your QB. He's just not a game breaker, he's almost like the Curtis Martin of offense, great long term stats but not the guy you want heading into a playoff game.

Lil Bit Special Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I support #6 but it destroys my view of NYC. Is it moral to ruin the views of the beauty of the center of the universe?

JETSFAN5180 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Did Mangini ever consider moving Vilma to safety with Rhodes.Might have been a worthwhile change of position.He is decent on pass coverage.Im sure he could do alot better than Eric Smith.

Vilma = fast for a LB, SLOW for a safety, not to mention he lacks the cover skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Vilma had enough speed for it. We would be just like the cowboys in having to cover for roy williams all game. It also would have moved rhodes to FS, thus making us even slower and weaker in pass defense. I like Vilma but i really doubt he could pull that off. I'd be interested to hear what an NFL scout has to say about it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 If you're thinking about Vilma at safety, go back and look at the Randy Moss 1-on-4 TD from last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
