New York Jets – Where Are Additions Needed?
Where aren’t additions needed, AMIRITE? Just kidding…Yes, the New York Jets are 32nd in ESPN’s “5 months before they actually play a real game” Power Rankings but of course we know that means nothing. The Jets have steadily improved arguably the league’s worst 2012 roster over the course of the off-season. You can make a very sensible argument that they are a bottom...
New York Jets Have Signed UDFA Tight End Mike Shanahan
With Dustin Keller now in Miami, the New York Jets have a big hole to fill at tight end. It was a bit of a surprise to me that they didn’t spend a draft pick on a tight end but after stealing Geno Smith in the second round, they took offensive lineman with their next three selections.
Mike Shanahan has a chance to make the team just based on being with the right team at the right...

This type of low-level tender does not allow for the Jets to receive a draft pick if another team signs Cumberland, it would simply give the Jets the right to match any offer another team...
New York Jets – Under The Radar Players
By now, Jets fans are all familiar with the many holes on this roster and have grand ideas in their heads about how they can all be fixed in one simple offseason. Well, obviously that isn’t going to be the case. There are simply too many holes to fill, and with the resources John Idzik has available — both draft picks-wise and money-wise — there is just no way they can all...

Initial Reaction – Ugly But Winning Football, Jets Move To 6-7
It has been far from pretty but the New York Jets have won two games in a row and three of their last four after today’s 17-10 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Dustin Keller Inactive
Jets tight end Dustin Keller, who has a high-ankle sprain, is inactive for Sunday's game with Jacksonville.Fantasy Spin:Keller will be replaced by Jeff Cumberland (21-233-2), but fantasy owners should avoid this offense like the plague.
Gameday Deciding Factors: Jets at Jaguars
In the midst of an easy final stretch of the schedule, the New York Jets are facing their usual late-season do-or-die situation. A win improves them to 6-7 and maintains their minuscule hope in attaining a Wildcard beth for at least one more week. A loss could mean a plethora of depth chart adjustments next week.The good thing is, the Jets are in Jacksonville to face an absolutely...

Initial Reaction – New York Jets Give Us Thanksgiving Turd
That has to be as bad as it gets, right? You couldn’t write a script for a more embarrassing performance on national television.
