    Great signing

    I think he's better than Drew Coleman or Ihedigbo (AKA the walking penalty) as a backup corner too.

    Worst case, he's the KR for the rest of the year. Best case, he contributes as depth at CB. This move was the prototypical no-brainer.

    IF and that's a big IF J-Millions is back to 100% and has no lingering effect on his injury he will be an asset on Defense....

    Actually, I'd love to see the guy @ safety simply because he likes to hit people.

    That said, even @ 100% it will take a little time to get into game day shape and learn any of the defense.

    But I guarantee this, If he is 100% there is one man who I know can make Miller a value to this Defense........
    ........REX.

    We also looked at him when Strick/Lito were out to help at CB. I'm not saying he's going to be a big contributor on defense, but I actually expect to see him out on the field on some defensive plays this year. I would imagine these would be situational plays, such as blitzing or Nickle/Dime packages

    Nice signing, just hold onto the ball Justin.

    No punt returns and no defensive play. You have repeatedly proven you cannot be a cover corner.

    I don't know why u guys keep saying that...

    The dude was playing well b4 he got hurt....but, I'm not gonna get into it because once JETS fans say a player sux there is absolutely no way to change their minds...
    ..and one thing I hate to do is generalize!
    Between that and labeling people ....ugh...pure anger.:wink:

    I mean, look @ LITO.
    We have fans swearing that he sux Just because of a few pre-season penalties :lol:

    Didn't he work out with us not too long ago? I really like his return ability and think he can be our best blitzing corner alongside Strickland.

    Rex knows what he's doing.

    Agreed.

    Welcome back J. Miller. He was Leon before Leon, only he was only good at returning kicks.

    Reminds me of Parcells signing Dave Meggett during the deep playoff run in the 1998-99 season.

    I can't help but think that if he anything worthwhile to offer he wouldn't have been out of work.
    This doesn't excite me.

    I am so happy to have him back, i loved him as a return man. I hope Rex can turn this kid into a elite corner. I hope he takes his jersey #22 back, i had his jersey

    Still one of my favorite Jets calls ever, even though we lost.

    I love JMillz, aka, Miller Time! One of the best KR in the NFL, this helps us replace Leon on Special Teams.

    I think he will, 21 is taken which is I think the other number he had.

    I'm still not used to seeing Lowery not in number 34 :shit:

    Yes, I too an thrilled to have the ex-Jet who said the reputed mastermind behind the Malcom X assasination, Louis Farrakhan was his idol.

    Miller has proven he's worthless as a CB. Damn good kick returner when he was here though, so this is a signing I'm on board with.
