At this time of year, everybody likes to weigh in with their views on how each team drafted. Of course, everybody should get an “incomplete” at this stage, but it never works out that way. Everyone has their own opinions on what a team could and should have done better. The Jets entered the 2007 [...]

Even though there hasn’t been much in terms of picks out of Hempstead, you have to know that the Jets are going to be busy signing rookie free agents, come the end of the draft, and as I saw on NFLN, Mangini has said as much. Also with teams like Jacksonville and the Pats with [...]

… the Jets select Chansi Stuckey, WR from Clemson.
Name: Chansi StuckeySchool: ClemsonPosition: WR / STHeight: 5′10.5″Weight: 197 lbs40 Time: 4.56
Would it suprise you if Stuckey has taken a few snaps at QB? Didn’t think so. Under 6 feet and 200 pounds, Stuckey isn’t typical wideout NFL teams look for. Stuckey came into 2006 with a [...]
