    Hunter Smith from Indy will likely be released, I'm sure he's way better than what we had last year.

    I don't know, I think we may be able to pry Patrick Mannelly away from the Bears to replace the obviously outmoded James Dearth.

    I agree we need a punter upgrade, especially with ryans philosophy on how to play the game. That said, I think the punter can wait until next week some time....

    We definitely need a punter, especially now that we will be relying on our defense more

    I believe signing Bart Scott is a bit more of a priority than looking for a punter.

    Jets need to bring back the superbowl-punter Ben Graham immediately. Tanny should trade for him right now!!! It will be a tough trade to pull off, but Tanny should be able work out a package deal of some sorts. Maybe give them Ainge, Brad Smith and Ty Law for Graham, Kurt Warner and Larry Fitzgerald???

    JOKE

    Field Position will be huge in our low octane offense so yeah, we need one who is near the top of the league AND plays in a northern city.

    I would imagine our FO/CS has someone in mind given our new philosphy of playing and winning low scoring games..

    I think we should carry two, maybe even three, punters on our roster.

    If there's two things you can never have enough of, it's punters and cowbell.

    We will use our 2nd round pick for the punter.
