QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 10, 2015 -> 03:11 PM) It's crazy all the rumors about Willie Young not making the final 53. Shows how crazy the football business side is. Sign a decent deal, have a great start, get a brutal injury and you are discarded. Soooo many potential OLBs on the roster that I'm not really surprised. Can't carry them all.

On our boring, predictable pass rush he was able to beat the tackle consistently. Just sucks for him, but obviously great hearing Houston is rejuvenated.

Its like, they are going to force themselves to make room and find spots for all these other guys who were terrible at football last year and the one guy that outperformed expectations is the odd man out. I personally would try as hard as I could to find a spot that fits Young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Eh, either he's not healing well or there are multiple better options schematically. I trust the staff to pick the best 53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd_city_saint787 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) Guess Wells played damn near everywhere for MSSU. Should be an interesting cat to follow. Not expecting anything right out the gate but ya. Keep him around for ST and see what you got. Sounds like a perfect JACK prospect. http://www.nepatriotsdraft.com/2015/05/pos...-wells-lbs.html Edited August 10, 2015 by scs787 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 At the heart of the dispute between former Jets LB IK Enemkpali and quarterback Geno Smith is $600 that Enemkpali believed Smith owed him, per league sources. Enemkpali purchased a plane ticket for Smith to attend his July 11 football camp at Pfugerville High School in Pfugerville, Texas. However, days before the camp, a person close to Smith was killed in a motorcycle accident in Miami and Smith did not attend Enemkpali’s camp, per sources. After Smith did not attend, Enemkpali demanded that the Jets’ quarterback refund him the $600 he allegedly used to purchase a plane ticket. Smith told Enemkpali he would reimburse him the money, but he did not. Enkempali confronted Smith today about the money and the confrontation ended in a punch and broken jaw.
