Daily Links: This Is Going On Your Permanent Record
Posted on June 20th, 2007 by Bassett
- Bob Glauber writes the Jets might be sanctioned by the NFLPA for contact during the weekend OTAs. [UPDATE: MDS writes about this too in the Sun]
- The Jets attended
areplanning to attendBenChris Patrick’s Supplemental Draft workout. Patrick might draw some looks from the Jets, as he is a 300 pound Offensive Tackle from Nebraska with 5.1 speed. - Randy gives his update on the guys over in NFL Europa.
- Catching you up with New Era Scouting, Matt Miller has a post on scouting Wide Receivers and Tight Ends.
Ben Patrick is the Delaware TE who was already drafted, by the Cards (I think).
I guess you mean Chris Patrick. In case you’re interested, I’ve got nothing…
Bent I was just thinking the samething about Ben Patrick, the only reason I remember the guy’s name is because I wanted the Jets to draft him, especially after he fell to the Cardinals in the 7th round.
What exactly is the deal with the Supplemantal Draft? How do you get picks in it and do we have any? Is it just one round?
I wonder who may have snitched to the NFLPA about the Jets contact during OTA’s? Hmmm maybe our old friend Pete Kendall, wouldn’t surprise me.
Ferragamo, it is quite simple.
Every team has a shot for 7 rounds at any player in the same order as the April draft.
But instead of waiting for three days, you fax in your interest in drafting a player and what round pick you are willing to use. If more than one team “picks” a player, the team willing to use the higher (or earlier) pick gets him.
The pick you use is taken from your next year’s (in this case 2008 NFL draft) draft. If you traded away your next year’s fourth round pick, just like the real draft, you cannot use a pick you don’t got.
One limiting factor is that although you lose next year’s pick, you must also use this year’s money from your draft pool and salarly cap.
Hope this helps…

Thanks for the info Harlan.
For some of you kiddies who don’t remember it, the Jets drafted Rob Moore in the first round of the 1990 supplemental draft.
So what your saying is, in 1991 the Jets didnot have a 1st rounder becuase they used it in the supplimental draft the year before?
Correct. We took Nagle in the second round that year.
Does anyone else find it amusing that we are getting sanctioned as a result of Moore and Clement actually picking up a blitz? How was Mangini supposed to have expected that to happen?
Thanks Bent!
And they must have tripped over each other and Ellis couldn’t get out of the way.
R in CT, I love when people reference some old Jets names, like you did with Rob Moore, get’s me thinking about Terrance Mathis and Rob Carpenter.
It would really be nice to have a “where are they now” type of thing where we can see what some of these guys are up to.
Well unless it’s Buttle, Esiason or Lnow hayons I don’t know too much about that, but many of them are focusing on fatherhood and have young sons hoping to make it to the NFL, such as Marques Murrell, Nick Toon, Michael Zordich Jr., and James Hasty Jr (and we already have Marion Barber III). Then, on a completely different note, you have Brittany Gastineau, not that she has anything to do with her father.
John Riggins nearly bought a British league franchise about 15 years ago and Namath obviously pops up from time to time. I guess if this sort of thing really interested you, you could look back at when they named the teams of each decade a few years ago. They are bound to have mentioned what guys are up to now.
I thought that the interesting thing about the Jets’ interest in Chris Patrick was that he projects as an NFL guard…a position that will get thinner once Kendall is released. I wonder what round he would be projected for? 4th or 5th seems appropriate for an OT to OG conversion project.
Late rounder IMO. I didn’t have him on my radar at all. I don’t know the circumstances as to why he is entering the suppwitdat draft, but maybe the Jets have taken a look in case no-one bids for him and he becomes a FA.
Referring back to my notes, 12 months ago he was only 285, but he is 6′4″ which suggests maybe he could get to 310-315 without losing any of his mobility, which is his strong suit. He could do with being more aggressive in the running game, but maybe that would come with the added weight.
Definitely a project, which says to me that the Kendall situation may be largely irrelevant.
[...] the Jets are interested in Chris Patrick, the offensive lineman from Nebraska. If you remember the Jets did go check out his workout last month, and Scout.com notes that the Jets might consider signing him as a free-agent if he goes [...]
