    Cuts are starting so this thread is for any name that you think should garner interest from the Jets FO.


    Bishop Sankey .... 2nd rd RB in 2014 cut by Tennessee

    Jahri Evans ..... G cut by Seattle. Is a little old at 33 but might be an upgrade over Winters

    Logan Paulsen is an upgrade over Kellen Davis because, well, Davis is the worst player I've ever seen but he's still not great. Iffy hands, good blocker. Macc and Bowles have some weird affinity with Davis I can't figure out so I doubt he's getting cut.

    Jets have no money to pay for the players they already have. Or barely anyway, they have 1.3M in cap space.

    Anyone who can play RG or RT. Not knowing WHO you are starting at RT a week before the season opener speaks volumes about how jets brass has ignored the OL for years. Brian Winters at RG is not much either. Not sure if jets RG or RT (whoever he is) could start on any other NFL team.

    Eric Kush of hard knocks fame. I know he's a natural center but he has played some guard in the past.

    Brandon Thomas just cut. The man the Lions got in a trade for Jeremy Kerley. Worth a look.

    Cap space is a nonissue as the money will come from the player we cut to bring in the new guy.

    RB Karlos Williams!!!

    ....I'm still shocked the Bills cut him, and we can afford to wait for him to serve his 4 game suspension...then he might be our best RB, and yes that includes Forte! Dude was a BEAST last year!

    Macc freed up $3.2M by cutting Ross and Thompkins. Probably gets another combined $1.5M from cutting T.Bo & Reilly.

    Thomas will make the team ... at least for game 1 ... as per OTC we're already over 3 million in space ... why isn't WIlliams on Ourlads.com ?

    They still need to pay for a practice squad.

    Would kick the tires on Jahri Evans, Cecil Shorts and definitely Logan Paulsen.

    Former All Pro Guard Josh Sitton cut from Green Bay. Would be an instant upgrade.

    I just wanted to write exactly that! Josh Sitton is 30 years old but still played at a very high level (Pro Football Focus' No. 5 overall guard last year).
