Official New York Jets Thread

[Sandman42]

Figured I'd get a new thread started for the Rex Ryan regime.

Lots of cuts the past week:

David Barrett
David Bowens
Brad Kassel
Chris Baker
Brandon Moore

Hutchinson says the team is currently $27MM under the projected cap.

Hutchinson also saying the Jets are eyeing Ray Lewis and Bart Scott and are also looking at Vontae Davis and Josh Freeman for the draft, with Brian Cushing and Clay Mathews as possibilities also. I'd be fine with any of the 3 defensive guys, but I want no part of Freeman.

you think favre will come back one more time man??

[Sandman42]

Nugent declines offer.

I say good riddance. What a waste of a draft pick. Feely was better than him anyway, at least he could kick the ball past the 15 on kickoffs.

[Sandman42]

We re-signed Tony Richardson.

Cimini is reporting that a deal with Corey Ivy is close, and that Jim Leonhard is in for a visit tomorrow.

Also looks like we may deal a 4th rounder for Lito Sheppard.

lol, just trying to take the entire defense huh? I've gotta tell you, Ivy is awful but if there's anywhere they can get anything at all out of him, that's on the Jets. He's done well when he can blitz and he's a good tackler, and Rex knows how to use him. Just hope he doesn't have to ever start at corner.

I was thinking Leonhard would end up there, along with Scott, all along. I really like him. He'd be a great addition to your defense and special teams.

Well if anything, Ivy would be playing nickel or dime. I don't think he can be any worse than David Barrett or Hank Poteat whom the Jets sent out in the past.

Looks like the Jets smartened up also and re-signed Brandon Moore to a 4 year/$16MM deal. Great signings so far!

Rex Ryan sure loves those Ravens. DE Marques Douglas signed. He should add some depth behind Ellis and Coleman.

Also looks like the Jets are interested in KSU QB Josh Freeman.

http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/200...d_private.html

He's a strong armed QB, but he wasn't all that impressive when he played against teams with a pulse in the Big 12. He also only had a 58% completion rate last year.
