The New York Jets sign kicker Nick Folk

Blogged under Attention Jets Fans,Bloglockers,Free Agent Additions,Front Page by admin on Tuesday 23 February 2010 at 9:19 pm

The Jets have signed 25-year old kicker Nick Folk.  Folk played in 14 games for the Cowboys last season and he made 18 of 28 field goals (64.3%) and all 36 of his extra points good for 90 points.  Folk has now played in 46 games in his NFL career and he has connected on 64 of 81 field goals (79%) and all 131 of his extra point attempts good for 323 points.  It’s up in the air as to whether Folk will compete with Jay Feely or simply replace him.  I like this signing for the Jets as Folk was an outstanding kicker his first two years in the NFL.

The New York Jets struck gold last April

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page,The Draft Report by admin on Thursday 11 February 2010 at 10:35 am

The Jets were trading like crazy in last April’s draft and they only wound up with three players.  Still, the upside is huge for at least the first two picks (Mark Sanchez and Shonn Greene).  The Jets selected QB Mark Sanchez in the first round (#5 overall) out of USC.  He played in 15 games during the regular season and he completed 196 of 364 passes (53.8%) for 2,444 yards with 12 TD passes and 20 INTs (63.0 QB Rating).  He also carried the ball 36 times for 106 yards (2.9 ypc) with 3 TD runs during the regular season.  The thing that has the Jets’ brass so excited about Sanchez is how well he played in the playoffs.  In three playoff games, Sanchez completed 41 of 68 passes (60.3%) for 539 yards with 4 TD passes and 2 INTs (92.7 QB Rating).  The future is bright for Sanchez.  In the 3rd round (#65 overall) the Jets selected RB Shonn Greene out of Iowa.  Greene played in 14 games for the Jets last season and he carried the ball 108 times for 540 yards (5.0 ypc) with 2 TD runs but he didn’t catch any passes.  In the post-season Greene took his game to another level as he rushed for 304 yards on 54 carries (5.6 ypc) with 2 TD runs as he pretty much swiped the starting job from Thomas Jones.  He also caught 1 pass for 4 yards in the playoffs.  Greene will be the Jets’ featured back before you know it.  Guard Matt Slauson (6th round, #193 overall) out of Nebraska only played in 3 games (0 starts) for the Jets before his season was cut short due to injury.

GRADE FOR 2009:  B

GRADE FOR THE FUTURE:  A
