NYJ 4th round pick from last year. Are we just stockpiling Jets failed players? And people thought we were going to bring in an upgrade over PJ Walker

...Baylor, Temple and now the Jets...poo is scaring me...

Arrr, me hearties,

Avast ye: Shiver me timbers and sink me, this scallywag Morgan intends to plunder Dave's doubloons! (for a fortnight or so)

Actually the opposite could happen. He could be on our practice squad, learn our playbook and be picked up by one of our opponents. Just sayin.... 

[Panthers Rhule]

Yeah, learning the Jets playbook is definitely our priority. Thank goodness we have some here that figured that out.

I think this guy will be protected.  He will be our #2 in due time.

My theory about Melvin:  Thomas Oliver III and Taylor looked good in camp.  Hartsfield locked down the nickel.  He was going to be cut in after 2 weeks anyway.

I think we have made some pretty strong additions in this dumpster dive:  Rolls Royce, Captain Morgan, and Michael Jordan.  All make us better

Further observation about Melvin: TBH, I don't think I've seen any of the guys who took last season off have fared very well so far across the league.  Unless they were an established core player before they sat out, it doesn't seem like they've had very good outcomes, at least of the ones that come to mind...  I know ours haven't.

And as has been said by myself and many, many other posters here, if you have fairly equal performance amongst a group of players at the same position, you should default to the younger guys.  Nothing I saw from Melvin indicated he was worth keeping around over a younger guy.

Maybe he is friends with Sam…..

New York is just so bad that there could be another decent qb on their roster that the staff wasn’t using correctly?

Good point.
