    Bowens

    Newsday reported today that the Jets are still talking with him and his agent. We'll see. Always nice to add depth, especially on the D line where we desperately need it.

    Depth is OK if you have players that can disrupt the other side O. If you do not then it is valueless

    Is this guy gonna be depth or a starter? If he's looking for starter-type money then let him keep looking. Jets money can be better spent at this point.

    Well that would be terrific if we could pull off that feat. All I am saying there are backups & then lower class backups & then lower, lower class then bottom of the barrel backups like Kimo & Ham

    Kimo is putrid, he's lower than bottom of the barrel. I agree with Champ, Bowens is a tweener, better value in the draft

    If signing Bowens means Kimo never gets on the field again, I say pay him what it takes.

    I thought signing Coleman takes care of that particular nightmare:up:

    Didn't Kimo win the Super Bowl two months before he was practicing with the Jets? Somewhere there is a contradiction in here, but you're used to it.

    You mean all by himself Kimo won the SB? Is that what you are saying? Hamilton has a couple of SB rings also so what does that mean except he was lucky enough to latch onto the team that won the SB

    David Bowens would be a pass rusher. He has no use in a 3-4 system otherwise. I think this is pretty obvious. If we're going to add another dlineman, it's going to be someone who can play meaningful snaps both inside and outside. Bowens would be a linebacker.
