    Do you have link to press conference??

    I tried to find one last night... could only get it after it was over.
    Here's the archive.

      Tough to get a pass rushing threat via a trade
      TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

      • A couple of other interesting tidbits from TT's presser...

        1. He said he really likes DLinemen. Duh. He said you never can have too many good ones.

        2. He said he has a pretty strict height limit on drafting CB's. We pretty much knew that too.
        One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

          The Jets have been actively shopping veteran OLB Bryan Thomas for a while, so they can get something for him without cutting him. He'd be serviceable.
          He can't be that good if they're trying to cut him. He did only get 2 sacks last year.
          He can play better than a UDFA or a sixth round pick. Is he elite? No. But he's good enough to see play in rotation with the other guys we've got there starting game 1, which is not something I could say for any of the late round OLBs.

              It is a great word Tar (and great concept) but vince tells me I misunderstood him. I was close!
              Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                Are they counting on a veteran getting cut from another team? I thought the same thing, we get that out of Jones right now.

                • Oops. McStubby is talking now. (Hasn't mentioned pad level yet.) He said all the guys they drafted were the highest on their board.

                  • According to McCarthy, who got fatter, every player we chose was on the top of their board and they are very happy with all the selections.

                      I was just going to ask what the over/under on hearing that would be! You can finally hear the questions being asked.

                        pbmax is too smart to draft.
                        At least that is what I tell myself before I cry myself to sleep after the draft.

                        What I would love for fans to have access to are game tapes. Then someone smart could devote a website to actually grading players like they can attempt to grade college players. Someday, someone at the NFL will decide the money to be made from making this available is worth the price of coaches screaming about making their life a living hell.

                            The Ahmad Carroll/Terrell Buckley shockwave had far reaching implications. Almost affected the Packer franchise as much as Favre did/does.
