    A veteran of seven seasons, Compton has had stops with the Redskins, Falcons, Bears and Vikings. He has just 30 career starts, but 14 of those came last season in Minnesota. I don't know much about him. Probably a backup. Can't be that bad if he started 14 games for Vikings last season. Thank God they cut ties with Quale & Dakoda.


    Former Eagles C/G Stefen Wisniewski will indeed visit #Jets in the coming days, source confirms. Date TBD. Search for a Spencer Long replacement continues.

    Good depth signing. Better than Qvale. We still need a center though.

    So who are our backups? Harrison, Compton are decent depth at the interior but I assume we need at least 1 backup tackle as well.

    Any move to bolster our OL can only be seen as smart.

    I'm not a draft connoisseur...is there a player coming out that would help the cause?

    He must have a stronger stomach than Barr it seems.

    For sure, there are 3 good centers going in rounds 2-3.

    I'd rather trade down to get a second rounder or package Lee to move up on one of those 3rd rounders we have to guarantee one of the good ones.

    Next years draft doesn't appear to be a good one for Centers either
