The New York Jets are going young at QB in 2009

The Jets will likely run the ball a lot more often than they have in recent seasons to protect whichever young QB they decide to go with in 2009.  Jets fans want rookie Mark Sanchez to be thrown into the fire right from Day #1.  But, he will have to beat out Kellen Clemens to get the nod in September.  Remember, Sanchez only started 1 season at USC….but he was great last year for them.  He can make all of the throws needed to succeed in the NFL.  It will be interesting to see how he handles the speed of the game.  Kellen Clemens had a chance to beat out Chad Pennington a couple of seasons ago and it didn’t go too well.  While he does have good physical skills he often throws the ball where he shouldn’t resulting in turnovers.  Still he will be given a chance to compete with Sanchez for the starting job in 2009.  Erik Ainge is clearly the #3 QB on the Jets.  He was suspended last season by the NFL for taking a banned substance so he’s in the Dog House with the Jets already.  But, he was a decent QB in college so maybe the light bulb over his head will turn on soon.

The New York Jets claim TE Martrez Milner off waivers from the Giants

Blogged under Bloglockers, Front Page, Attention Jets Fans, General by admin on Saturday 6 June 2009 at 6:08 pm

The Jets have claimed 24-year old Martrez Milner off waivers from the Giants.  The 6′4″, 260 pound Milner did not play last season.  Milner has played in 8 games in his NFL career and he has caught 9 passes for 50 yards (5.6 avg).  The Jets have little depth at TE so Milner might luck out into some playing time during the 2009 season.
