    For some reason Bowles has always had a boner for Skrine. I don’t get it. Could’ve had Mathieu for $1M extra on the books.

    Heart was set on Mathieu but i think he sees the Texans as a better fit better team, with Watson, Hopkins, Fuller, Watt, Clowney, Mercilus i cant really blame him. We probably offered him more just like we did Cousins.We might be one more year away from truly getting those elite free agents. The big thing is the QB Watson really has a ton a fans in the league. As much as i like Bridgewater i cant blame for players not being sold into us yet.

    Let's not forget Mathieu knocked up Bowles stepdaughter and never married her. There may not be a good relationship there.

    A year away is so true. So former FAs will be FAs again next year. If Mac has gambled correctly, it'll allow him to continue remaking the Jets offense and defensive pieces. (There's a downside to it, too, though. On the off-chance that the Vikings fans are correct about Bridgewater -- in that he recovers fully and turns a major corner -- and looks like a long-term answer for the Jets, Mac may have to decide pretty quickly whether they want to keep him in-house or gamble on Rosen/Mayfield/etc. Although, I guess that's a good problem to have.)

    If I had the choice between the Texans who were on fire before Watson got hurt or this mess of an organization that we love,,,,,,I will say it again no one is running to play for Bowels and Mac unless you give them a lot of cash = see Johnson and in many cases see Cousins = even stupid amounts of money aint bringing them here

    Yeah, I forget how he acquired Jonotthan and got the two confused myself and had completely forgotten about Jarvis. But point taken, that could throw you off.. Jonotthan Harrison is who I meant. But Jarvis was another guy too.

    Jensen signed with the Bucs and is the highest paid center now. 4/42, 22 guaranteed

    Colts cut Hankins. Geez...Would be a nice fit at NT for the Jets. Had a very good year last year for INDY.

    They have a big hole on the d-line after Wilkerson's release.

    Cap space isn't a problem.

    Judging by the contract they gave Mike Pennel (3yrs/10.5M), wouldn't be surprised if he's a big part of that. They also resigned Xavier Cooper, who seemed solid last year. If they bring back Ealy they might be really set. But maybe a late round draft pick on the DL would help too


    The Jets are hosting EJ Gaines for a visit. Young, injury history, didn't play much slot last year, but one of the better CBs in the league in 17':

    jets one of 13 teams at his pro day. Apparently he looked good. My prediction is that Johnny will do more in his career than Teddy.

    Adams tweeted "Jets fans... Stay tuned.."

    Could mean anything really.

    New signing. New uniforms. Adams got car insurance or started watching Game of Thrones.

    Hopefully it's the announcement of Gaines & Hurns getting contracts.
