MTJ06 Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 Jets re-signed S Brodney Pool. The Jets were ready to let Pool walk this summer, but changed their tune after he generated very little interest on the open market. HC Rex Ryan proclaimed Eric Smith the Jets' new starting strong safety on Monday, but Pool should be able to reclaim his job fairly easily.

jetsjets Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Id rather we had signed Ihedigbo instead. Pool didn't seem to bring much to the table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Sweet!!! Big fan of Pool.don't forget he played injured a lot and was still learning the system last year. Huge underrated signing imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Good news. Don't worry about Dig. So long as we don't hear about him signing elsewhere there's still a chance he comes back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Jet Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Id rather we had signed Ihedigbo instead. Pool didn't seem to bring much to the table Without Pool we lose to the Colts. I mean who wants tackles for losses on 3rd and 1 anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleedin Green Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Id rather we had signed Ihedigbo instead. Pool didn't seem to bring much to the table I think it would be good if they brought Digs back too, but absolutely not "instead of". Digs is a fantastic special teamer, but on defense he fills the same role as Eric Smith, who the Jets have already brought back. Pool brings a completely different set of skills to the table than any of the Jets current safeties. He was far and away the Jets best coverage safety last year, and should only improve on that with another year in the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMC Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 This is fantastic news. Pool >>>>>>>>>> Smith I still can't get over the fact that Smith ran through the TE on the badly underthrown ball in the 45-3 game. That had a 50 yd INT return written all over it.

T0mShane Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Rex sets his eyes on Eric Smith for the first time in six months and the next day Pool is signed. Coincidence? ITN!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleedin Green Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Rex is great, but I just wish he would wait at least a week to declare starters. Same with Mo Wil The only thing I will say in Rex's defense, because I noticed it in his statements regarding both players, he specifically stated "as of right now". Which I took to mean these were the guys practicing with the first team defense, and making the point that while it was currently the case, it could change. I feel like the whole starter-naming thing has been a bit overblown in a lot of these articles when you actually read the press conference transcripts.

SoFlaJets Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I have been dying to ask Ihedigbo on Twitter how he felt about the play that he hurt his knee on in the NE blowout. After Ihedigbo went down injured their scumbag rookie TE Hernandez was kneeling on James' injured knee holding him down and then he sort of bounced down hard on it knowing full well that James was hurt. Another scumbag Patriot was Wilfat during the playoff game going after Sanchez and smashing him after the play was over and there was a bunch of guys standing around. You KNOW that had that been a Jet doing that to Brady he would have been ejected. Now I'm not saying this stuff to incite a fight with Garb I'm talking to the Jets fans here so don't start with me Tee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTJ06 Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 JennyVrentasJenny Vrentas Confirmed Jets will re-sign Pool. They needed more depth at safety; he rotated in +out w/Eric Smith last year, also a special teamer. #nyj https://twitter.com/#!/JennyVrentas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slats Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I was hoping the Jets would upgrade at safety this offseason, but the status quo is better than downgrading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsjets Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 I see most here disagree with me. it's cool I just thought Diggs was great in our blitz package. aside from the bs calls against him. He is also a great ST guy. and we needs guys to step up since Smith is gone or guys that know the system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
