I agree with the multiple posts here that if we got him for a bargain, it would be a great signing. From the interviews I have read with our new DC Dennis Thurman is that Allen and Bush are "not quite there yet" and "need to play better to start". A Rex Ryan defense calls for some great man cover guys and safeties who can help stop the run. I feel better about Allen than I do Bush from the little I have seen from him. Landry would help with the depth and probably win a starter spot on this team unless we draft a stud safety and Allen really impresses, both of which are not likely to happen. I would try to get him if I were Idzik.
All dependent on if we sign them. Idzik definitely has the right idea. Now let's see if it gets put in motion. So far, so good. I would love Landry and Fred Davis signing. That would be clutch
Hold up hold up now I see us signing Landry 2.0 but Fred Davis too? You think we have the cap to war with Buffalo. I mean I want him but idk now just being realistic I think Butler goes to the Eagles or Saints and Davis goes to the Bills doesn't mean I don't want them both
We are $13 million under cap right now. Give or take $6 million for the draft and we are left with around $7 million. That should be enough to sign both
Looks like we lost out on Butler and Davis. Personally i'd rather have Landry over those 2 guys anyway, as i think he is the better player. Any news on this? I guess he left the visit w/o a contract. They need to get this one done, and maybe take a FS in the mid rounds.
Any news on this front? I'm getting a little impatient with the inactivity. I like how Idzik is handling the offseason so far, but damn is it boring.
I twitter searched his name for anything news worthy and he hasnt even been mentioned in nearly 3 days. But they are all related to the Jets so thats good I guess lol
With the lack of news, I'm beginning to wonder if Jets will simply double down on safety this draft. Some articles are stating rounds 4-5 can still decent safety prospects. Combine these two 2013 safeties with the two 2012 safeties drafted last year. Force Rex to create a safety duo amongst those 4 young guys.
isn't jim leonhard still out there? maybe the jets will take a page out of pats book and go bargain hunting just before training camp opens in july.
I say it would be in our best interest to sign Landry 2.0 to a 3 year deal and draft a safety its better to have atleast one veteran(of course who isnt 12 years in) to start to mentor and have liability at the position
