  Jets to sign David Nelson to replace injured Holmes

  posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | Injuries

  The New York Jets are expected to sign WR David Nelson, formerly of the Buffalo Bills, to replace injured WR Santonio Holmes. Holmes suffered a hamstring injury in the last game against the Tennessee Titans and is going to miss at least a few weeks. WR Stephen Hill sustained a concussion and his status is uncertain at this time. So, the Gang Green might be without both starting wide outs going into the next game against the Atlanta Falcons, which made signing Nelson a necessity.

  Jets Select Guard in Third Round, Acquire Chris Ivory

  posted by: Site Admin | 0 comments | NFL Draft

  After selecting QB Geno Smith in the second round, the New York Jets filled a hole in their offensive line, as they picked OG Brian Winters from Kent State in the third round. The 6-4, 320-pound Winters played both tackle positions in college (34 starts at LT, 16 starts at RT), but he will compete for a starting guard spot with OG Vlad Ducasse. Winters lacks elite athleticism, but is regarded as a physical, punishing blocker that the Jets need after losing both starting guards in the offseason.
