    Wise ass , you're missing plenty. Among the knowledge you're missing is knowledge of Catanzaro's career, how both Catanzaro and Martin kicked in TC this year, and Bowles' track record. But hey, ignorance doesn't stop posters like you from shooting off your mouths.

    Far from it. I'm just sick of Bowles, and sick of Jets stupidity. They kept the dumb bastard on as HC this season when he should have been fired following last season. There's no way Catanzaro should have gotten the job. The kicking competition was obviously every bit the sham that the QB competition was.

    Pretty sure the final 53 is Mac's decision. He cut Martin.


    I'm sure the coaches have input. ButMac probably gets the final say.

    NCJ, how about trading a safety to get his longsnapper?

    Perhaps you're right. If so, then that's just another strike against Mac as far as I'm concerned, but it certainly seems like a Bowles-type move.

    Like I've said, Bowles has his input like all coaches.

    But this was Mac's decision.

    Well, Ronald Martin was getting cut anyway, so I never had a problem with trading him. As for trading a S for a LS, why not? STs are very important, and the LS is perhaps the most critical part of the snap and hold for FGs and extra points. I don't see that as a problem, since Purdum was supposedly struggling in camp, and the Jets wanted to bring in some competition/insurance. The Colts may have been the only team that had any interest in Martin. Since a number of teams have already cut a LS, I have to think that either the Jets didn't think those LSs were that good, or the Colts were the only team that had any interest in Martin.

    Since Martin was cut, it would seem that the Jets didn't trade to get Martin's LS to reunite them, but rather that they thought he was one of the best LSs that would be available, and it was just a coincidence that he was Martin's LS in college.

    What happened to Lemonier that he's on IR?

    I guess the Gragg injury was serious also.
    With VanderLaan also out, I expect the Jets to be looking for a TE after other teams cuts...hopefully one that can block.

    Was just about to post this...

    I'm surprised both were cut. I feel Pennel is a better prospect than Simon, and looked better in limited preseason action.
    However, Pennel seemed buried on the depth chart and saw less action than guys like Pelon. Wonder who it will be..

    Thomas also a little surprising only now that Sheldon traded.

    Keepers: Wilk, Leonard, McLendon, Ealy
    Maybe another 2 spots between Pennel, Pelon and Gamble

    Hopefully Simon and Thomas find way onto practice squad.

    Wouldn't mind keeping Beltre on the practice squad.

    K's Mike Nugent and Graham Gano were both cut
    P Andy Lee was cut. Getting older, but former pro bowler with great years on SF

    we need a Returner as well

    Wouldn't surprise me if we try to improve any of those positions

    Do you know how serious Vander Laan's injury is?

    I don't think they'll sign a TE. They'll have Leggett and Tomlinson, then ASJ after 2 games, and maybe Vander Laan before then.
