I thought he looked good too, but overall is 3.2 yards per carry that impressive against a bunch of second and third stringers?

If the Jets can get value for their number three RB (which they didn’t use AT ALL last year), then it might not be a bad move to pull the trigger. (Although, it doesn’t seem certain that it will even happen).

That would be pretty stupid trading Jesse Chatman, did they not see how he performed? Or were we all just witnessing one of TV’s illusions? I think not.

Harlan…was that sarcasm or did you get Chatham (LB) and Chatman (RB) mixed up? I thought you wanted Chatham (LB) out?

1050 espn radio. It would make a lot of sense. He was clearly, in my opinion, beaten out for #2 by Ratliff, they get a pick or picks for him and they get to keep Ainge. Seems like a win-win. Let’s hope it is true.

Where did you hear the rumor, That would be awesome, KC contract is up at the end of the year if i am not mistaken. Anything we could get for him would be great.

IT would be great if Hutch was wrong. About Chatham. I hope the others are cut.

OTOH, although I would fear not having a reliable back up to TJ (in whom I have serious doubts) and Leon, I think extra picks in next year’s drafts in the 4th round or better might be instrumental, especially in light of the Favre trade where we likely lose at a two or a three.

If Ratliff ain’t the guy (and it would be a Brady like surprise if he was) then we need to get a top QB. Extra picks next year will be more important than a back up.
