The guys over at Jets Insider have some great pictures from yesterday's mini camp practice. It's wild to see pictures of Laveranues back in Green & White.
Defnitely worth checking out.

Here's Part Two of the Zero Sum Game. A month ago, I assessed
what the Jets had done in the offseason, and landed on a decent +3
score. To give credit where credit is due, thanks to Tom Schaller of Bronczilla for the idea. Again, here how this works:
Any notable roster or coaching activity is fair game.
With

Here are some quick thoughts from Herm's press conference today, to kick off the first day of Mini-Camp.
On the Rookies:
Many will help out this year. The vets have set tempo (some are not
practicing but acting as coaches like Chad, Curtis & Dewayne. The
have been good, finding out what is expected of them and are paying
good [...]
It's been great to see more and more
comments getting posted on the site, so thank you for participating,
you're thoughts are what make this site great!
In an effort to
keep that participation up, I wanted to start threads that are more
specifically about your thoughts on a particular topic from time to
time. I am dubbing these “Audibles” and [...]
I came home last night and popped on SportsCenter,
to see the spectacled John Clayton speaking about Ty Law's future on
last night's 6:00PM EDT SportsCenter. Clayton seems most convinced that
Law will shop his services within the AFC (Steelers, Colts) but spoke
primarily about the Jets as the organization he thinks Law will land…
From
my understanding, anyone who is [...]
This is from ESPN Insider by way of PFW's Whispers:
The
Colts haven't ruled out signing ex-Patriots CB Ty Law. Law isn't
expected to be ready to take a physical or be put through a workout
until the end of May. At that point, the Colts will re-evaluate Law.
They expect competition to come from the Jets, Steelers and, yes, [...]
Dallasnews.com reports that Ray Mickens might soon be traded to Dallas for Pete Hunter, a much younger cornerback (drafted in 2002) who played his college ball at Virginia Union (a CIAA school).
Both
have had injury problems last year (Hunter's knee, Mickens' ACL) but I
would be interested to learn more about this. Does Bradway think this
kid can [...]
From Ken Berger in today's Newsday:
“A person close to cornerback Donnie Abraham (BB: his agent)
said his decision whether to retire likely won't be resolved until
after this weekend's minicamp, from which he is excused. That will give
Jets coaches a chance to see what they have in the secondary before
Abraham makes his decision. One of Abraham's teammates [...]

Everybody's entitled to my opinion.
Therefore, I am going to weigh in with my thoughts on the Jets draft.
As a disclaimer, I would add that whilst I watched hardly any college
football last season (although I plan to this year), I have followed
the draft closely, although all of my opinions are simply based on the
opinions of others. [...]

I was looking at Ron Borges' column
again on MSNBC. I saw that, after stating the Jets didn't do their
homework for the draft, he stated they drafted Justin Miller in the third round. If you look at the article now, you will notice the change.
Ah, the irony…

Bruce Feldman, who writes a blog for ESPN
(Insider Required) about NCAA football made a list of ten picks he
loved in the draft… only two teams had more than one pick
mentioned…. guess who was one of those teams?
2) Kerry Rhodes, Jets, 4th: His D-coordinator at Louisville, Mike Cassity, has coached about a dozen NFL DBs and [...]
Whilst
the NFL was separating the wheat from the chaff in terms of the latest
collegiate class, it was business as usual across the pond. The race is
hotting up for the World Bowl (probably - I must
confess I have paid no attention the standings whatsoever�in fact I'm
not even 100% sure it is actually week four).
In this week's
action, [...]

Two more 'under the radar' rumors…
1) Aaron Glenn: From Newsday
- “…despite speculation that the Jets would be a logical destination
for Houston Texans cornerback Aaron Glenn, it has not been a major
topic among the team brass (mums the word?). Glenn has been given
permission by the Texans to seek a trade.
2) Ty Law: After denial of interest [...]
