Pool is good and underrated for sure, but hard to call him the best FA pickup when you pick up LT and Jason Taylor.
Jericho is being phased out of this offense...hes not underrated. Hes anice little player....thats a bout it....Braylon is better, Santonio is miles better, Keller is a way better weapon....ummmm thats about it
i voted for brad smith. it seems there are a lot of voices every training camp calling for him to be cut. but the guy is just so dynamic and nearly every time he touches the ball, it turns out good. i'd also like to give an honorable mention to James Ihedigbo. he is very solid all-around. very few mistakes. like leonhard.
Bryan Thomas is great at stopping the run. He is someone who is extremely underrated on this defense.
We all know where BT is at. We know he has a fat contract that doesn't match his production. He is a having a good season so far and seems rejuvenated.
In terms of across the NFL only Ellis gets any real notice. Brad Smith is getting a little talk because of his versatility when he goes in at QB. Obviously a gadget play coming but he can run and throw and works to block. So teh list is wahat it is Amongst Jets fan that know I think we can say that Brandon Moore is no longer underrated and hated on like he used to be. I think he flew under the radar in 2006/7 because he had Clement (liability) to his right and Mangold was getting his feet under him to his left Bryan Thomas is no longer underrated just expectations were high early on given where he was drafted DeVito is very underrated. Look at the job he did last year when spelling Pouha, played with intensity got penetration and solid in the run and he's getting better every single down My own choice is Eric Smith. Here on the board we all know him but generally in the "is he white" bs that get's thrown around - mark of a fan fave just a little however everything he does on teams and how he fits into the d scheme when he needs to he is an unsung and dare I say essential cog. BTW he hits like a truck and plays well above his apparent abilty. Brodney Pool is a definite upgrade on Rhodes I think we just need to see a bit more before we call on the over/under
Danny Woodhead, oh wait.... Lol Seriously, I was happy for the Rollof. First midget TD ever, he's a inspiration for all tiny white Americans.
Pouha, the guy for the 2nd year in a row is being asked to fill in for a potential All Pro but so far he has played very good. He is solid and makes very few mistakes. I really like him as a player. He's no Jenkins but there isn't quite the falloff you'd expect from losing Jenk.
Already 2 sacks this year... 5 away from topping Gastineau's Jet record. I really hope he does it. He is having a great year, steady, quiet force.
Bryan Thomas....this guy took a BEATING on this board for the first 3-4 years...he is SOLID...plays hard...and is literally everywhere on the field...yet, except for when he makes a tackle, you never hear his name. Period.
Wasn't thinking about Tomlinson... and Taylor has been extremely valuable with the Pace injury. Still, Pool is only getting healthy now, and he is still learning Rex's system which is pretty complicated. Once he gets those two things down, look out. He made that saving tackle on Marshall, had that big pik against NE and he isn'y even settled into the system yet. Pool is a guy who can and will make game changing and game saving plays. By the end of the season, he might be considered to be as important as Revis is. In Ryan's presser he talked about communication problems in the D backfield, including Pool, but went on to talk about the two big plays he made against MIA. Pool is a Ryan hand-picked player. He is still a young player too. He'll be here long after Taylor and Tomlinson are done.
I just found out my neighbor is cousins with Devito. He visits her frequently too. I live on the island
