Did anyone else hear about getting Core Ivy? http://blogs.nfl.com/2009/02/27/jets-expected-to-sign-lb-scott/
If we sign Ivy I wonder what the plan for Lowery will be. I really don't see him playing much man coverage as a #2 cb ...
Neither Ivy nor Lowery addresses the #2 CB spot. This is purely a depth signing, and probably a pretty good one, although TGG will overreact.
Some were interested in bringing in McAlister, but this makes more sense. McAlister would've wanted waaaay more money than Ivy. Now if we go CB in the 1st round, and say pick up Vontae Davis, I'd be really excited about this secondary and defense as a whole. Ellis, Jenkins, Coleman, Gholston/Thomas, Scott, Harris, Pace, Revis, Rhodes, Leonhard, Davis. With Lowery and Ivy as nick-n-dime CB's.
Word on the street is he can't cover worth a damn. If that's the case, I like the idea of Lowery better.
According to a Ravens forum, the general consensus is he's a good STer but is afraid to get into coverage.
