Jets Rehire Alosi, Henderson to Assist

In addition to hiring Mike MacIntyre to replace Corwin Brown, it looks like the Jets rehired their old conditioning coach, Sal Alosi, and let Markus Paul go after just one of the healthiest years for most of the Jets players.

… considering the Jets were one of the healthiest teams last season. Alosi, formerly an assistant [...]

Coach Mike MacIntyre Joins Jets

Not a suprise that a guy who worked for Parcells has come to the Jets to coach the secondary. This from the Forth Worth Star-Telegram:

MacIntyre, whose contract expired with the Cowboys, is joining the New Yorks Jets as secondary coach after spending the past four years with the Cowboys.

From looking at his bio on the [...]

Buzz: Thomas Jones in Green & White?

Now consider the source **cough cough erroneous!!** but news out of Chicago is that Thomas Jones might make his way to New York (Giants or Jets) in a trade.
Oh really? I don’t doubt that the Bears and Jets/Giants have been in contact about Jones, but I just don’t know that he fits the mold of [...]

Assistant Richie Anderson has taken a job with the Arizona Cardinals as a Tight Ends coach. Good luck, Richie! Rock notes that Brian Cox might soon be leaving as well.

The Jets from A to Z: B

In our ongoing review/preview of all things Jets, we take on the letter B. For those of you left hanging in eager anticipation from last week, we start with the butcher, Chris Baker and the search for a backfield playmaker. . .

A Thought on the SuperBowl

I finally have a reason to consider living in Massachusetts a blessing. Up here in the Commonwealth, it’s been over a week and sports radio callers are still obsessing about bad calls by the refs in the Indy game. Every time I hear a caller or talk show host talk about “the Ellis Hobbs pass [...]

Links: Eyes Turning to Nate Clements?

Peter King suggests the Jets not focus on Asante Samuel for a free agent cornerback this offseason, starting first with the other end of the Empire State.

8. New York Jets (10-7). If I’m Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum, knowing the Patriots will almost certainly franchise or sign Asante Samuel, my free-agent focus right now is on [...]

Links: Chicks Dig Minivans!

Cimini is in Miami with Gary Myers and Myers wanted to rent a minivan!!! That and Mangini is rolling around on the outside of a shuttle bus.
The Bill Parcells thing won’t go away, and apparently he was “influential” in bringing Mangini to NY.

Andrew Gross thinks the Jets are [...]

Don Banks Mock Draft

So Don Banks has a player that would fit the Jets’ needs going to the Jets at #25 but for the wrong reasons.

The Jets made due with veteran Kimo von Oelhoffen on the nose last season, but Tyler would give them a prospect to groom at that key position.

They did? Funny, I thought I was [...]

Restricted Free Agency Rules

Again, not really relevant to any current Jets, but with all the whispers about a certain restricted free agent on a certain west coast team, I thought it would be a good idea to spell out the new wrinkle with the new collective bargaining agreement.
Up until last year there were three options regarding restricted free [...]

2007 Franchise Tag Costs

Not that this will really effect the Jets this year, as they have so few free agents, but it seems our friends to the northeast could have a tough time this year. Now in the first year of the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, it looks like the Pats have a huge list of potential free [...]

Audible: Senior Bowl Thoughts?

With the Senior Bowl tomorrow, I have been paying a little closer attention to scouting than I normally do. I am sure that we will have more to come, but I wanted to set off some conversation about who to pay attention to for the game tomorrow.
If you see the list of the top 32 [...]

Philanthropic Work For Martin?

Tom Rock writes a short article today about Curtis Martin’s future, and what he is looking to do next.
Martin said he is looking forward to broadening his involvement in philanthropic endeavors once he has officially closed the book on his playing career. He said he has put aside 12 to 15 percent of every paycheck [...]

Film Room Friday: Chad Pennington’s PSA

The great thing about YouTube is that people with spare time can make funny videos. The bad thing about YouTube is that people with spare time can make funny videos.
The author of this one, is Pete Cestaro, who it seems is a comedian. This one happens to be a Public Service Announcement about drugs, performced [...]

Notes on the Coaching Situation

Cimini gets us up to speed on some of the coaching happenings with the Jets, with three openings (Defensive Line, Secondary, Running Backs) here are some of the possibilities Cimini floats for two of the three positions:

Wouldn’t be surprised if Bryan Cox got promoted to coach the D-line
