the more our offensive line stays together, the better it will be. I think all of our guys are talented and I really liked our O-Line this year. I thought they did a great job and were able to protect a QB that cant move to well in the pocket. Keep our O line the way it is and I guarentee it gets ever better next year. This is oneof our strong point..if it aint broke, dont fix it
You've seen the one article that I also saw, it said dont expect them to be. Its a beat writer, at this point everything is just a smoke screen dont get crazy.
What Tannenbaum really said was the idea was to spend smart and not just spend. He did emphasize the draft over Free agency however he worded it in such a way as to be an open ended ambiguous answer. Seriously is there any other kind with this FO. Not that this is a bad thing, it certainly is not. He just is not tipping his hand like the previous regime. I am sorry but I can not find the specific quote I really want where Tannenbaum says it is important to spend smart and not just spend. However he basically says the following here. "Once we are done with the critical analysis of our team, Eric [Mangini] and I will assemble our lists of 'musts and needs,'" he said yesterday. "We will pursue those 'musts and needs' as soon as the offseason begins, be it offense, defense or special teams." Tannenbaum, who has almost $30 million of space under the salary cap, wants to have the roster set as much as he can before the April draft; he has a first-round pick, two in the second, and third-, fifth- and sixth-rounders. "I don't want to go into the draft saying, 'We have to get X or Y,' because based on history what I have learned is that is when mistakes can be made," he said. "I would like to have as few moving parts as possible ... because then we can capitalize on opportunities if they are presented and take what is best value." "I feel comfortable where our cap situation is ... (but) philosophically we want to build our team through the draft as much as possible. That's something that Eric (Mangini) and I are committed to," he said. "We want to try to keep as many of our players as we can. It's one of the core beliefs we share with (owner) Woody (Johnson) and (team president) Jay (Cross). With that said, if there are opportunities in the free-agent market we feel makes sense, we'll take a look at it. "One thing we know about (free agency) is you have to accept the consequences of any decision you make, good or bad, because it stays on your cap. ... You have to live with (it)."
jets need a couple of elephant guards. Kendall and Moore just cannot move the pile. And Moore is a penalty guy
BTW, The Jets already have a huge RT. Blanton, a three year starter out of UCLA. 6-6, 330. He was placed on the active roster from the taxi squad for the WC game, although he wasn't activated. Mangini must like what he sees, or he wouldn't have thrown him a bone like that. He's a kid to keep an eye on next year.
moore is the kind of guy whom will not only get the job done....but he will cause other guys to look bad by him making his pop warner mistakes.... (False Starts)
If we are going to replace anybody on the O line it has to be Moore and while Kendall is a good G he is getting up there in age.
