The Jets have agreed to trade DeWayne Robertson to the Bengals for a 4th and 5th round pick. Considering this is close to the value far superior tackles such as Kris Jenkins and Marcus Stroud went for, the Jets are making out like bandits here. Did I mention Robertson makes 9 mil a year and the Jets wont be picking any of that up? This helps to make up for the picks the Jets gave up to get Kris Jenkins and also clears up more cap room to complete their roster overhaul.

According to Fox Sports, the deal that would have sent Dewayne Robertson to the Cincinnati Bengals for two draft picks has been scuttled, presumably because the Bengals could not agree on a contract extension with the defensive tackle.

Wow. Let me catch my breath for a second. We Jets fans are an impatient lot. We bitch and moan a lot, particularly when our usually-inferior team drags it feet filling what we deem to be glaring holes. Well, at least we've got something to talk about now.

Pick eight is now on its way…
With the eighth pick, the Jacksonville Jaguars select:
***B.J. Raji, DT, Boston College***
According to DraftCountdown.com:
The Jags still haven’t adequately replaced Marcus Stroud so B.J. Raji could be an intriguing option at defensive tackle alongside John Henderson.
The Green Bay Packers are on the clock.
Yes, PackerLand, we are now on the clock.

Keep an eye on evolving situation involving Jets' defensive tackle Dewayne Robertson. He might, just might, become a target of the Panthers. They tried to include him in the transaction when they traded for former Panthers defensive tackle Kris Jenkins. But Carolina wanted draft picks -- they received a third- and fifth-rounder -- and didn't want to inherit Robertson's big contract...

Well, I've seen enough evidence to make a call.
It's time for the 49ers to strip the interim tag from Mike Singletary's title, give him a long-term contract and make him their official coach.
Am I right or am I right? Surely John, Jed and Denise-DeBartolo York, the 49ers' deciders, are having similar thoughts after watching the 49ers beat the Jets 24-14 on Sunday...
Original Story:
This is asolutely amazing. Seeing Vilma get traded was difficult, but logical, and it is a business, not personal. Finally being able to say goodbye to the poor draft decisions of Herm Edwards, that could never find their niches in our 3-4 Scheme. I am so happy about having a 3-4 Scheme. I mean look at what the Patriots did, they built their O-Line and grew a crop of special LB's and CB's. The only thing that I see as being different in the Jets and Pats respective 3-4 Growth is TOM BRADY. A huge separation in talent from a young Brady to Kellen Clemens. But Kellen has yet to prove that he can or cannot get the job done with some talent on the field, talent I believe the Front Office just purchased for roughly 74 million dollars in guaratneed money.
Now where do the Jets Draft??
I still want them to take Gholston at 6, because you can always use more young and elite pass rushers and LBs. But!!!!, if DMC is sitting their at No. 6, I hope to god Jerry Jones calls Mangenius up and gives us those 2-First Rounders later on in Round 1. This would then be our potential Draft Picks (22, 28, 36, 98, Cincinnatti's 4th Rounder #108, Saints' 4th Rounder #109, Cincinnatti's 5th Rounder 139)....Anyone know what to do with these picks??? WRs?, CBs? DEs?
If McFadden is there, you have to take him. Forget Adrian Peterson, this is the best rb prospect in years. Gholston may also be the pick. If not, they should trade down. They can use a slot WR, CB opposite Revis, a new FS and a TE to compliment Baker. We'll see what happens.
