    I think bringing in shane ray is a good idea. all these moves are low cost, low risk high reward. Anything we can do to bolster the pass rush.

    Another player he should look at is Jalen Collins. He's a CB on the colts practice squad so doesn't cost anything to get as long as we sign him to the active roster. He's only 26 years old and was a "first round talent" in the 2015 draft who was taken in the early 2nd round of the 2015 NFL draft due to off the field issues. He's been suspended by the NFL several times already which is why he is on a PS and coming off a suspension but the talent is there. He's got size, speed, and good cover skills and has a couple of INTs in his 2nd year (2016) while only playing in 8 games cause issues off the field. At this point with our CB issues and our starters being roberts, poole, and hairston and TJ riding the pine for 12 mil a year it makes sense to bring him in and give him a shot to play for us. If he gets suspended again we don't lose anything. he's saying the right stuff, if he turns his life around he's a legit starting CB and would be the best one we have on roster and pretty cheap as well

    They have Willis who's a physical freak, I wonder if he will be active this coming week.

    He's really hitting the ground hard on pass rush types.

    He did say that he will always look to improve the team, IIRC.

    Isn't it sad that's there's no bottom for the franchise, just when you think they couldn't get any worse with a coach, they do, then it looks like the previous coach that was hated, was really a good coach.

    Only reason to not freak out at this point is that Gase has had so little to work with. Has any team been missing as many key players as the Jets? Not saying that excuses how utterly hopeless they've looked but it does offer a glimmer of hope for when they get some players back.

    Maybe JD can hand out Gase’s playbook to next years draft prospects and see which of them can execute his scheme and rank his draft board accordingly.

    Are there fans who think the GM normally sleeps through the bye week?

    Start working out some punters, as we need them when its 4th and 2 and we are down by 2 touchdowns with 3 minutes left in the game-----was that injury related or just bad coaching ?

    It is very apparent that the offensive line cannot do the job, if they are going to continue to let pass rushers through without any blocking get a fullback have him hit whoever walks through the line and tell him to hit the first guy that gets to the QB in 1second.

    it's 3 weeks into a new GM and new HC and a team that had 8 starters out for injury. The sky isn't falling.

    It’s not even the amount of players missing it’s the importance of those that are missing. Go through every team in the league and take out their starting QB and best defensive player, how are they gonna do in Gillette vs the Pats?

    I’d venture to say every coach in the league would look incompetent.

    Gase's offense looked inept against Cleveland. No quick hitting routes, no moving pocket, just screens and handoffs to Bell every 1st and 2nd down.

    I hope when Sam comes back the offense will be opened up, they really attacked defenses in the intermediate game all preseason so I'd love to see that.

    I'll be happy if Sam can outscore our defense/special teams... :confused:
