KINGDIRK Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Anyone else really impressed with this kid? He was all over the place - forgot at times that he is just a rookie. Anyone else think him and Harris would have been a nasty combo in the middle for the next half decade? Tennambaum has done a pretty decent job drafting. Had he picked Mayo over Gholston, I think he would get more positive pub around the league, ala Jerry Reese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fast, smart, and hits like a truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hits like a ****ing truck. and he follows the ball extremely well. However, I WONT compare him to our draft pick Gholston because as I said this entire year, Gholston is being asked to play out of his natural position and at the moment its not working. That's not Gholstons fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECURB Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I think the JETS are grooming Gholston, making sure they set him up to succeed... tossing him into a new position on a playoff team with 2 first round picks at that position already is like a death wish for a rookie... Dont forget guys... he is fighting for playing time with two experienced 1st rounders... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aten Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Mayo is pretty good. He benefits a lot from only being asked to make plays in one direction and that amazing line keeping him clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did the Pats other first-rounder do? Oh, right...they surrendered that pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevermind the fact that yes, Mayo will be good, but Keller is a stud too You lost, and are in 2nd place....so Or you could look at it like this, the Jets barely got by a team that was lead by a QB that had not started a game this century, going with their 6th string RB and minus two defensive starters. I think the JETS are grooming Gholston, making sure they set him up to succeed... tossing him into a new position on a playoff team with 2 first round picks at that position already is like a death wish for a rookie... Dont forget guys... he is fighting for playing time with two experienced 1st rounders... Um, not to quibble over details, but he was drafted by a 4-12 team. When drafted, the QB of the NYJ was CHad.

Nevermind the fact that yes, Mayo will be good, but Keller is a stud too You lost, and are in 2nd place....so How to you come to this conclusion? 1) I hardly call it a spanking. I call it a nice, solid victory by the better team. Scores usually don't lie. 2) Keller had a terrific nite - AIDED by the fact that Merriweather sucks ass. In OT - Merriweather had him dead to rights and Keller just plowed through him. I attribute this to Keller being a beast and Merrweather being a jelly donut without any help from teh other jelly donuts. Just calling it like it is. The Pats pass defense is abysmal. 3) Yes, Keller may be a stud. I think Mayo may be too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets have turned into a potential playoff team over the last 2 weeks. Where was Gholston before that? I'll tell you where he was. The same place he has been all season.....Not on the field.

You are poster number 4,758 to ask this question. You have been a member for a few years and have racked up a healthy amount of posts so I'm surprised you brought this up. Garb, Alk, PFSIKH and me were invited to join this site when it started. I'm sorry you don't like what we have to say sometimes but this thread isn't the place to call us out. JonEJet is saying that the Jets spanked the Pats while ecurb is saying that the #6 pick in the draft is a "project." I post on patsfans.com and get all kinds of crap for calling out the homers who make statements like jonE and ecurb do on this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
