    hed be solid depth if added, been here before, always played well just never turned it on really. i think with devito gone hed be a perfect fit to go behind coples.

    Decent pick up if they sign him, could provide depth to the defensive line plus he knows the system. I always liked him and was disappointed to see him let go in the first place.

    do it.............even if he can't get to the QB, there's no QB in the league that's throwing screen passes over him.

    Never been that impressed w/Ropati. He's big and slow. If that's what ur looking for, he's ur guy. vet min. at most.

    I think they are mainly going after him for run blocking. We were terrible against the run last year, seems like they want to fix that

    Mainly because of slow Linebacker's... but I known what you mean I'm figuring the same thing something like a run stuffer - rotational of course.

    Manish Mehta Former Jets DE Ropati Pitoitua recently visited #NYJ, but I'm told not to expect him to sign with his old team.

    Looks like this ain't happening

    only thing i remember of this guy is kris jenkins throwing ripoti on his shoulder with one arm when he blew his achilles and then placing him on the cart.

    man what our defense could have been in 2009 & 2010 with a healthy jenkins

    Jenkins was a pure run stopper and was damn good at what he did. He could of had 3-4 good more seasons

    Wasn't Ropati the player who got hurt on Hard Knocks and Rex looked like he was just told he would never get to see another foot again?
