YES! I'll miss Laveranues, but I've been dying for the Jets to draft/sign an impact WR for forever. It also likely means that Clowney will be more involved.

He probably winds up with his buddy in Miami.
Darrius Heyward-Bey would look good in a Jet uniform. Hell, he'd look good in Eagle green too.

I think Kenny Britt from Rutgers and Hakeem Nicks from UNC could be good alternatives as well if they choose to improve through this draft class.

Yeah, I think DHB is likely to be around at 17 and he had a great combine. I don't like Percy Harvin.

This move puts a lot of pressure on the Jets to go get Bart Scott and fill the ILB hole next to David Harris, but with the adjusted cap and around $28 million in cap room, they can go to the mat for him.

DHB definitely looked the part w/o pads on. Not a fan of Harvey either, although his speed could make him good at end arounds and quick outs. Has had problems in the past with his wheels. Could line him up as a back and motion him out creating a mismatch.

Scott would be a HUGE addition, aware of the system they are putting in place and an absolute monster in all aspects of the game.

Bart Scott was interviewed by Jim Rome today, and when asked why he chose the Jets over Baltimore, he told the story of how, at 12:01am on the eve of FA, his dogs started barking, and moments later he received a call from Dennis Thurman,the new Jets DB coach, telling him to control his dogs, that he and Rex Ryan were in his driveway.
Made a pretty strong statement.

You mean the guy who helped obliterate and completely expose your team in the Wild Card round? Good luck with Noodlearm this season. And that Ginn is a hell of a kick returner. He's going to be great returning kicks for you. Wait until you see his kick return abilities.
