A few years ago we voted on position by position for most valuable Jet at each position, let's start with TE: Mickey Shuler- My pick, great hands, tough, came to play every game Pete Lammons- A close second, great hands, good blocker Rich Caster- great deep threat, great speed and no hands Jerome Barkum- great deep threat, great speed, not a good blocker Kyle Brady- OT at TE, stone hands Anthony Becht- Kyle Brady only not as good Fred Baxter- servicable TE Johnny Mitchell- head case
Becht was a better blocker than Brady- probably the best blocking TE we've ever seen. He was essentially a 6th lineman when he was in the game. Shuler + Becht in one body would have been a thing of beauty.
I'd say Shuler #1, Barkum #2, Brady #3. Too bad about Johnny Mitchell, he could have been the best one.
Brady's best year with the Jets was '98 with 315 yards and 5 TD's- nothing remarkable to say the least. Also, I don't think that he really came into his own as a blocker until later in his career with JAX- certainly a few steps below Becht.
Mickey Shuler Jerome Barkum Pete Lammons Fred Baxter Rich Caster Chris Baker I refuse to even mention the others since they were such significant disappointments as 1st round picks. Kyle Brady drafted #9 overall makes D-Rob's pick a steal at #4 overall.
Dearths an O.G. hes been on the Jets for a long long time and is a elite long snapper. Cant really beat that.

I agree...I always felt like he should have added 30 pounds to his frame...I know that is easier said then done, but if he could have done that he would have been a good OLineman.
