Shonn Greene To Be Centerpiece Of Jets' Offense
Running back Shonn Greene is under the impression that he will be the centerpiece of the Jets' offense in 2012, according to the New York Times.
Fantasy Spin:
The Jets are expected to use a run-heavy offense under new coordinator Tony Sparano, and Greene will surpass his career season high in carries, which is currently 253 (2011). Greenes stock will still take a hit by his low...

Jets sign RB Vakapuna
Fullback Fui Vakapuna signed a one-year deal with the Jets. Vakapuna a powerful blocker who fits best as a lead blocker could be used as a situational runner in power formations and around the goal line, where Shonn Greene and Joe McKnight are unproven. Vakapuna (6-0, 257) was a seventh-round pick in 2009 but was waived by the Bengals at the end of training camp. He's been...

New York Jets Need Shonn Greene Now More Than Ever
Shonn Greene still has not truly asserted himself as a full time lead back for the New York Jets, yet he is slowly moving in that direction. His continued movement in that direction will go a long way to determining whether or not this football team will make the playoffs.
