    Anyone else agree? I liked what we have done so far with the cuts, and contracts, because it looked like we were really going to rebuild with some youth. Now all I hear about is getting these old players, who are way past their prime. I don't want McGinist, Or Kimo Von Olhoffen, or Dan Campbell, or Kitna, or tom Ashworth, or that other LB Chatem from NE. I don't want all the old New England players on my team. most of these guys are players you bring to a playoff team to fill a hole. not to a team like the jets, who will not be good for a while. We don't have much of a base. QB is in question, O-Line is in question- D is OK. Lets just get some young guys to come in here and be the future of this team.

    This is the way the Belichick system works. They mix veterans with young players. They bring in young guys to split time with the veterans, and then when the young guys are ready, they replace the vets. No one should expect any Belichick disciple to totally rebuild with all youth, because that's not the way that they think.

    So your saying you don't want experienced players who know how to win?

    Jets | von Oelhoffen will visit team Saturday
    Sat, 11 Mar 2006 10:55:13 -0800

    Adam Schefter, of the NFL Network, reports free agent DL Kimo von Oelhoffen (Steelers) will visit with the New York Jets on Saturday, March 11.

    Since the DT from baltimore is gone I would take Kimo or better off sam adams but we need to make a splash.

    Of course I do-- but that does not include 34 year old players who can't run, and at best will give us 1 decent year, and then retire. We will still be a bad team even if we signed Kimo von olhoffen, Willie McGinist, Jon Kitna, Tom Ashworth, and Dan Campbell. We would still miss the playoffs with all of those guys. So why not just strip the old guys like we have done, and replace them with youth-- I'm not saying all rookies, but guys like Barret, McCareins and Barton, who were like 26, didn't cost a lot, and were solid additions to the team. the last thing I want to do is give Willie mcGinist like 4 million a year just so he can be the slowest LB in the AFC East again.

    It was from a post that the original topic starter made about players on our team and their penis sizes.

    you hit it right on, yes...

    we're a building team, so getting 34-35 year old guys is just going to hurt us even more

    Seriously, thank you SO MUCH for realizing that. Everyone else on this damn site wants the Patiots players, and/or a bunch of old slow expensive vets-- If Mangini wants us to be so much like the patriots, why doesn't he get us a good QB for starters.

    You need to chill out with the vulgarity...I could care less if we don't bring in any BIG time free agents. The Pats rarely ever (never) did that. We are going to be a fairly young team so you need to add some vets to the team. Kimo is a great example of that. Guys like Tom Ashworth would also be smart. Fairly cheap players that can contribute.

    As far as guys like Rosenfelds and Chatham...you need to bring in guys from all different levels of talent. A guy like Chatham could be nice to have around because he is familiar with Mangini.

    I am not worried about the Jets in Free agency. Jets fans do this every year. We don't sign someone to a 50 Billion dollar contract and every one gets their panties in a bunch "Man! When are we gonna make a splash! I guess it's the same old Jets..."

    Chill out already!

    I dont really like the Ramsey idea either...but imo we should get a 22-25 year old in FA...i wouldn't draft one unless we got a good steal

    As long as they don't give them huge contracts, it's all good. What young players on the FA market are we going to be able to sign at these positions? We need someone for the D-line. Right now, we can't guarantee that a rookie will be able to jump right in and play well. Sign a guy like von Olehoffen and let him man the DT position until the guys we draft are ready. So long as they don't break the bank on these FAs, it won't hurt the rebuilding process. It's one thing to rebuild through the draft, but putting all your eggs in a rookie's basket with no saftey net is a recipe for disaster.

    We should trade for Ramsey (never thought I would say that) should sign Lavar, and should have signed Bently. That would let us draft best available players, and still have a young core.
