carpetbeggar Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 TheJetsStream (Beat Writer / Columnist) Blocking TE Keith Zinger, who played 15 games w/Falcons as rookie last yr, agrees to 1-yr deal w/#Jets, per his agent @AlbertEliasMGMT #nyj Don't remember seeing this guy last year, although I didn't see much of The Falcons. Is he a good pick up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 he had 2 starts, probably due to injury, and according to nfl.com didn't log a single stat yup, mr zinger is mr zero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 A couple twitterites are calling him a very good blocker. A Ben Hartsock replacement - if he even makes the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsFanFromQueens Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I can't find a single highlight of this guy, which isn't a good sign. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/11466/keith-zinger Being cut after your rookie season isn't really a good sign either. I'll take this signing with a grain of salt. It's highly unlikely this kid makes the roster, he's probably nothing more than training camp material.

#27TheDominator Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Don't know anything about him, but a quick scan of the net means we know what to expect. Younger Ben Hartsock. In fact, this may be the guy that the Falcons kept when the cut Hartsock in the first place. 7th round pick in 2008. Year on the roster, year on the practice squad, year I don't know where. 270 pounds. Prototypical blocking TE. Good hands, can't get open. Slooooooooow.

#27TheDominator Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Not sure why people would expect a blocking te to have highlights or stats When a guy gets sacks he gets on the highlight reel. If he doesn't have sacks he's worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanFromQueens Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Not sure why people would expect a blocking te to have highlights or stats If he were a good run blocker, believe me... We'd have access to the footage of it, regardless of which position he plays. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iq0RVYCHkr8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYvmbPh49Jo&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
