New York Jets Thread

the Jets are to sign guard James Carpenter. dont know much about him, but he is a former first round pick!

REVIS is coming home .

Great news some big moves and rumours that we're still talking to cromartie too...

Loads of cap room so why not. Couldn't see John Idzik getting that done so we have an upgrade at GM already. Revis sure does get his money. #money

Lets not forget the good Idzik done, if it wasn't for him there wouldn't have had the cap space to make this move and Sheldon Richardson may have been applying his trade somewhere else! Next thing on the agenda for Maccangan will hopefully be giving Mo a long term deal

the James Carpenter deal has been completed, its a 4 year deal I think. I dont mind the Fitzpatrick trade he knows Chan Gaileys system inside out, gives Geno a solid mentor too

Well let's hope Revis recovers some of what he lost in terms of on field effectiveness.

Cro is back now too, this is the first Maccagnan move that Im not happy about. he had a good start to the season last year put he really tailed off for the last 6 games. and if he's going to be cb2, Maccagnan has given Skrine 13 million guaranteed to be a dime back.

Where does the Cro move put Miliner? Not sure what he is yet, he was a first rounder though. Not particularly happy with the Cro move either.

Milliner is rehabbing a torn achilles, so i doubt he'll be ready for camp. Bowles system made used alot of CBs last year, so i assume there will be a role for him once he's healthy

Surely keeping Dee Milliner off the field can only be good news, he looks awful and like t rich at the Colts sometimes it's better to cut your losses regardless of
round taken. Not saying cut the guy outright but the less playing time the better?

Jets D with the three big men up front and Cro paired with Revis again looks great to me. I think the team is really going places now. They got great value in the Marshall trade. I wonder if Ryan Fitzpatrick will be seen after the first few games. I still maintain Geno is the worst QB in the league, I've seen him play in the flesh a couple of times and I think he'll never make a decent QB. That "run and hide" game V Miami last December... When the public address are told not to call out a players name to the fans you know it's not good! The AFC East is going to be great to watch next season. Jets making moves, Patriots can only miss Revis I think he'll be a big loss, Rex at the Bills, Suh...who knows, maybe he can reinvigorate Miami, it would be good to see some seats actually taken at their games. Can't wait.

Milliner showed a major improvement in the final 4 games his rookie season, and he was showing signs of that form early last season too until he got injured.Like Paully said corners rarely show their true form in their rookie season, it didnt help that he missed all of his rookie camp as well.
Milliners problem its that he's not good enough, its that he cant stay healthy!

Fair enough he played better at the end, but you cannot attach the same weight to those games. Titans were already dead week 15. The dolphins game was the final game of the season where even Geno looked like Aaron Rodgers.

Milliner didn't play in any of these games he was on the injured reserve. it was the of the '13 season that he started to play better. anyway regardless of his competition the improvements I saw in Milliner was the fact that he was finally putting his technique to use, the fist 10/11 weeks he was trying to cover guys using solely his athleticism. Seeing him use his technique without thinking about it too much and not relying solo athleticism was when he started to show improvement!

Another big day in f.a yesterday, happy with both signings and even colon re-signing on the vet minimum is fine. Bringing cro back is a good move imo, we've got one of the best cb groups around now and time to let our others sit and fully recover and learn from the best.

Hoping for a big season from Pryor this year, a lot more talent around him now.

the only way we'll see improvement from Pryor is if he's moved to strong safety. Hopefully they'll sign a decent free safety that'll allow Pryor to move back to his natural position.

It's all a bit mad this. Get rid of Ryan but bring back the last D that made a run to the AFC Champ game!! :pac:

yes what Woody said is against the letter of the law, but its not like he met up for contract talks or called a press conference to express that he wanted Revis back.

I don't believe for a second Revis was wondering where to go and looked back at that and though "oh then I'll go to the Jets".
Let's be realistic, the highest bidder was gonna get Revis. Maybe if it was really close, he would've gone for a competitor instead of getting an extra couple hundred thousand, but still. He's been all about money since he got in the league.

Also if any other owner had said they would love to have Revis on their team I dont think Bob would have batted an eyelid.

Ah now come on. He made a blatant tampering comment, that most NFL team owners have the cop on not to make. And if you think Kraft would have ignored tampering coming from anywhere else, then that's ridiculous imo.

ah it was hardly the most severe of tampering comments, he'll get his slap on the wrist for it and be done with it. I'm sure he only put in the counter-claim to stir up some trouble.

I don't get the counter claim.
If the Jets think that Kraft's comments amount to tampering, then they are pretty much admitting that their own comments were tampering.
Shooting themselves in the foot really.

Woody didn't file these charges because he's upset about Kraft "tampering" or feels like he did, but instead, he filed them because it proves that his original remarks being taken as tampering are complete bull****.

Both tampering chargers are very petty, albeit the Jets against NE a bit more ridiculous.
It's embarrasing for both teams, no way around it.

I reckon Maccagnan is a best player available guy over position.

If Amari Cooper is there at 6 we have to pick him. If he's not then it should be Kevin White.

I think you know my feelings on Mariota at 6:P . Peat would be a great pick up in round two, Ajayi is another pick I'd be ok with. I dont really know any of the other tbh

6: R1P6 OT LA'EL COLLINS LSU
37: R2P5 ILB BENARDRICK MCKINNEY MISSISSIPPI STATE
70: R3P6 RB JAY AJAYI BOISE STATE
104: R4P5 OLB KWON ALEXANDER LSU
223: R7P6 QB SEAN MANNION OREGON STATE
224: R7P7 G MARK GLOWINSKI WVU

Collins is a serious reach at 6, the only way i see the jets taken him is if they trade out of 6. Benardrick Mckinney is a decent pick too, could become Harris's eventual replacement. I think Alexander as OLB is suited more to a 4-3 system. I really like Mannion as a late round pick

Here's one I threw together


In reality I dont think Gurely or Tomlinson will fall as far as they did

The only pass rusher I would take, if he fell to us would be Dante Fowler.

I'd be delighted with Mariota, Cooper or Fowler.. & happy with White or Beasley.
Agree with the above, Ray or Gregory won't be getting me excited.

Yeah he's definitely getting as many holes filled as possible anyway, I assume there'll be a lot of cuts to make? Seems like we've signed a lot of players who'll be competing for the later squad places?
