    Ivory has been nothing but produce for this team since coming here, he needs to stay.

    I love Ivory's approach to the game. He's definitely one of my favorite Jet players in recent memory, so I hope he stays on the team for some time. He gets it done.

    Ivory definitely stays on the team this season. He's earned the starting spot.
    signing Ridley has no impact on him at all.

    bigger question is whether or not they can retain him with another contract after this season.
    with all three of our RB's essentially playing on 1 year deals, it's important we land a decent RB this draft..

    Both guys can have a role. But if healthy Ivory will be the lead back.

    Yes. Far superior to Ridley.

    I will be pissed if Ivory isn't a jet this season.

    Ridley is capable of starting if Ivory is injured. And he can contribute in a complimentary role without giving everybody a lot of shit like Chris Johnson did.

    I think Ivory will be on the team next year unless he gets injured. Of the 3 rbs on the team with 1 year deals, I think Powell is the least likely to be on the team next year. I think he will be replaced by whoever the team drafts this year.

    Ivory is a great runner. But it ends there. He's not a receiving threat and his blocking is weak.

    I like the guy and hope he's on this team for a long time. But he's not a complete RB. Powell and Ridley should both get a good amount of touches this season

    I agree... The Ridley signing is one that doesn't make any sense to me at all. I'm in shock he got a tattoo.. I was thinking he may not make the team.

    Ivory, Powell, and Ridley will all be on the roster this year.

    Even if we drafted Todd Gurley in round one they will all be on the roster unless Ridley fails to impress in camp.

    In 2016 all three guys are free agents.

    The real question is if any or all of them will be back next year.

    Signing Ridley for the vet minimum made loads of sense for the Jets.

    As Ridley should have learned from the last time (getting a Patriots tattoo) the Jets tattoo was a horribly bad decision.

    We went 4-12, we do not have many good players.

    Ivory can't catch a cold coming out of the backfield.

    Yes, I agree he's been a real head of cabbage.

    Ivory is a good player. There's no reason to get rid of him unless he wants too much money or he suffers another injury.

    Did I miss something? When did Ridley become Walter Payton?

    Nothing is written when a new organization comes in. Ivory will probably start. Geno will probably start. Mo, if he is here, will start. The guys they gave too much money to will start. Guys who were signed before, unless they are elite caliber, may not start. If you have great players you leave them alone. If you pay guys too much, you play them. everything else goes into the blender. New sheriff in town
