    The Jets have got rid of some duds that were projected to do much better than they did. Then there are the former Jets players that are still very productive with their new teams. These are the guys that we should have got rid of the coach and kept the player.

    I would love have seen vilma in rex's system. He just couldn't play in Mangini's 3-4. in Rex's i think he would be a great blitzing option because of his speed. I think he was one of the most talented players for the jets in recent memory. In Herm's 4-3 he was rising up to be one of the best LB's in the league

    Pitt and Ravens have a slight edge over the Jets. The Chargers days of a good LB corp are done.

    Pittsburgh's LB core is great. Woodley and Harrison are forces at end and they have solid interiors. The jets don't have the same pass rushers that some of these teams do, their interior is excellent though.

    The Steelers LB corps is easily better than the Jets, I love the guys we have, but lets be realistic, Harrison and Woodley are 2 of the 5 best players at their position, and Timmons and Farrior are very good too.

    The Ravens 'backers are better also, but it's closer.
