    I was looking at some highlights of Jeremy Ruckert and thought that he looked a bit like Jeremy Shockey, any thoughts? Just my very humble opinion.

    Aside from the first name and position I don't think that is a fair comparison.

    Shockey was highly touted and went like 13th overall

    I think he’s a guy we can mold and will grow into a good starter in due time. Great thing is we signed two good TEs so he only has to learn and maybe do some blocking early on

    And another thing, Shockey played for NY Giants and he wasn't a Jet fan growing up!

    If he's the second coming of Mickey Shuler? I'm good...

    Jesus Christ this fucking fan base, by far the most delusional! Didn't we also draft Gronk a few years back

    I’ll be happy if Jermaine Johnson = Jermaine Dupri though. He already has the style part down.

    I've seen Freiermuth as a comp.

    If Jeremy Ruckert is the next Jeremy Shockey, then which Sauce is Sauce Gardner?

    I like Zach Ertz as a comparison. A bit lumbering at times and not very quick in small spaces, but becomes a bit of a freight train if he has a couple yards to get going.

    This is very accurate. Obviously not today but when you look at the style of play it’s easy to see him becoming that kind of TE. Hunter Henry is another good comp.

    Im just having fun watching him manhandle edge rushers. That’s what going to get him on the field. Turning into Ertz is what will allow us to feel good about moving on from Uzomah in two years.

    Put him on the right hand side next to Becton and AVT and just let them be road graters. Straight ahead, nothing fancy. Just manhandle the point of attack and suddenly, we no longer have any problems in short yardage situations.
