no way ducasse and smith get cut this year. connor is a real possibility though.

Rexipus Rex · 05-30-2012, 09:51 PM

I could definitely see the first two, but I can't see Eric Smith being cut... team leader, good on specials, knows the system (more than any other safety since Leonhard isn't here), etc. As much as we'd want to see it, it ain't happening.

I don't think Vlad would be a surprise. The others would be.

I pick Wayne Hunter. Wishful thinking.

Eric Smith? 0.0%

Agree with Conner. Scott is going nowhere after dropping weight, and Schillens is safe until he inevitably gets injured again.

Unfortunately, Smith is safe too. The coaching staff loves him, sadly.

Mauga wouldn't surprise me, especially if Bellore steps up.

Dream scenario: Hunter. I can dream.

Contrary to the posters above, Eric Smith WILL be cut, and it WONT be a surprise to anyone (except the posters above)...

Megalomaniac · 05-30-2012, 11:48 PM

Patrick turner isn't making the team. Is that a surprise?

FijiJet · 05-31-2012, 12:05 AM

Patrick Turner getting cut or any of the Jag WRs wouldn't suprise me. Cut him and McKnight/Riley and resign Braylon. Yep!

Can we cut Mully again! Just 2 more times for good measure??

What the heck happened to Connor???

He'll be the first jet football casualty before or even on the first day of camp..

And no way is E. Smith getting cut. Less of him on the field? Yes, probably. But as a backup and situational player he is fine

No way. Think about it - Landry is a toss up to even get on the field, let alone start. Bell is 34. And other then them, we have late round rookies and udfas.

Besides Sanchez, Smith is the guy who gets the most unnecessary hate. Did he have a great season last year? No, but it seems like a majority of our players had a bad year. I don't want him to be a starter because he's basically a JAG, but sometimes that's the best you can get.

Does Schilens play special teams?

I don't think so. Not the past 2 years at least, too frail. But I did read when the Jets signed him they said if he's healthy, they are going to see where he fits best, including special teams.

Brandon Moore is mine. I think his play has gone down ( supposedly callahan wanted to replace him in lineup) and isn't exactly the type of guard sparano likes on his oline. (look at the guards he has had)

Jets were 22nd running the ball last year.
Supposedly Powell has great hands out of the backfield. The dude that used to run the Texans, that picked Mario Williams (can't think of his name) called him the best 4th round pick in that draft?
Man, you guys are harsh!
Now Ducasse on the other hand is a certifyable BUST!
Another case of Tanny getting too cute & trying to look like a genius.
Ross Tucker on NFL Sirius radio said the other day, & I quote
"Vlad Ducasse is HORRIBLE!"
