Every year I start a thread to keep track of players the Jets have spoken with and have visited. I will update daily as the Jets meet with players. Feel free to add your own...I need a link. Senior Bowl: Jaiquawn Jarrett Jason Pinkston Von Miller Ryan Kerrigan Cedric Thornton Brooks Reed Cam Jordan Lee Smith Kendric Burney Eric Hagg Corey Liuget Sione Fua Jaiquawn Jarrett Randall Cobb Derrick Locke Will Rackley
Not sure if they met with him but Manish says they are showing big interest in Pat Delvin of Delaware http://twitter.com/TheJetsStream
Delaware had their proday yesterday and Matt Cavenaugh was in attendance. KC probably leaving and having a limited upside, Devlin could drop into later rounds and be an option. I heard Devlin's workout was lukewarm, missing some key throws, erratic was the word one scout used. It seems Devlin's stock isn't as high as a few months ago, quite a few QBs have passed him in the rankings. Although, Devlin was known for his accuracy, only 3 INTs last season. If I listed every coach or scout that went to prodays to see players, the list would be watered down. I will list any info if Rex or Tanny attend a Proday or workout. I want to keep the list to one on one meetings at the Senior Bowl, Floram Park or individual workouts.
Hey, as long as we don't take him sooner than rd 7 why not? Although I wouldn't mind having Brunell/Clemens as our #2 and O'Connell as our #3.
Rex at Illinois' pro-day. Rex talking and joking with Liuget. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...18iPCA&usg=AFQjCNEsTYv5mqoCqww2V5NIEF5lmGILvA
I really haven't seen too many people putting Liuget on the Jets in their mocks, but I've thought it was a strong possibility for the past few months. He doesn't have ideal height, but he fits the bill otherwise for what we'd need in a 3-4 end. I could also see him playing as a small-ish NT in the 3-4, much like Kelly Gregg does in Baltimore.
Liuget would prob take DeVito's place on the line and DeVito and Pouha would rotate at NT (unless Pouha gets traded for a third of course )
Rex was at the Missouri Pro Day today. Likely to watch Aldon Smith, but sat through Gabbert's entire workout. I'm guessing it might have something to do with the fact that Gabbert brought in some small college WRs for the workout. Get a better look at some late round possibilities at the position.
The WR's from other colleges is because he's only allowed to throw to draft eligible players, right? Has that always been the case or is this because of the CBA?
Jets | Scheduled to work out Sione Fua Fri, 18 Mar 2011 10:56:08 -0700 Stanford DL Sione Fua said he has a private workout scheduled with the New York Jets, reports Matt Barrows, of the Sacramento Bee.

cimini says that the jets really like Aldon Smith. http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/jets/post/_/id/4828/the-gabber-attends-gabbert-pro-day not suggesting we will but what do you think of the jets trading up for him?
Aldon Smith is too risky for me. I wouldn't be against it but I'd be nervous trading up for a guy like Smith. He's got boom/bust written on him imo.
Anyone know if they were at Temple's pro day for Wilkerson? I heard he had another impressive outing.
It's the lockout's fault. Generally, teams can bring players in to help work out draft prospects. Because of the lockout, you've got guys like Ricky Proehl and Isaac Bruce catching passes in workouts for QBs.
