    Ok dont hang me, he is not the answer, but bill drafted him, he is a vet, he will be available, he would give him time to develop the franchise QB

    fielder may be better at the long ball, it is just bill likes to start with a vet while he grooms a guy

    I posted the possibility of Pennington in Miami earlier. I could also see Bill bringing him in. Not that I want that, but I could see it happening..

    We would be scraping the bottom of the barrel if we were considering Pennington....I would just as soon keep Lemon in there until Beck is ready.....or better yet, draft Brennan in the 2nd round if he is available, and see whether he or Beck is our future QB.

    Brennan should be there in the 2nd round. If so, I don't see a reason why we shouldn't look at him.

    I'm not a Pennington fan at all. He has absolutely no arm strength, no zip on his passes to the outside. In our offense he'd be a turnover machine.

    Funny, for a bum with no arm, Miami has certainly made him look like a HoF'er over his career.
    Noodle arm or not, Pennington is better than any of the 100 QB's Miami has had since Dan retired.

    Pennington would bring instant leadership, accuracy, and very good play in the red zone. Pennington's forte is not turning the ball over in the red zone. That means you get points, and that's how you win.

    He`s a Jet. Nothing short of acid will work.

    Very true Joe. Listening to his downhome folksy twang is really annoying with him as a Jet though, but I'm sure it would sound much more charming if he were a Phin.

    I can certainly agree with you on this. For those reasons, he is totally a BP type of QB.

    As the late Hank Stram would say, he is very good at matriculating the ball down the field, very similar to Hank's old QB, Len Dawson. :thumbup:

    I think if you go with Pennington then your next two steps are getting Ronnie Brown healthy and back to where he was and drafting a tight end on day one. Then you move the chains baby. :up:

    Is Trent Greene officially done? I have not heard if that is the case. What’s wrong with using him as we groom the next starter, be it Beck or whoever? He is still on the roster I assume he will be same old fragile self but fine for the start of next season, no?

    MrClean Inglourious Basterd Club Member

    Yeah, we definitely need a TE. Either LJ Smith as a free agent or draft one with one of the 2nd rounders. The guy who's name keeps coming up is Fred Davis, USC, but he is rated about 20-25 overall.

    So true. It's funny about that twang. A guy I used to work with played football for CP's dad in Tennessee when Chad was a kid. So, I had to hear that twang every single day :glare:

    We could do worse then Pennington, right now 2008 is "John Beck and Whomever" for us, Veteran would help more then hurt, as long as his arm is healthy enough to hand the ball off he should do alright for us...

    Happy holidays Marvin! ... I think you may be confused with common skunk stink... now, that's pretty bad, even skunks try and hide from it;

    [​IMG]




    ..but for rank jet smell I'm thinking nothing less than Tabasco will achieve the deep cleansing necessary for this evolution... by the gallon

    [​IMG]



    For example.. I give you the measures the denver has to take to protect themselves from KC... and wormy Herm... you remember HIM dontcha..

    [​IMG]

    here is a typical donko fan on game day

    I think Chad can still be effective, especially as a backup. What we REALLY need, is a team that actually fuctions around John Beck.

    We need to get our D straightened out before we do anything. But for QB, Pennington is not the answer imho.

    Chad Pennington as your starting QB and Ronnie Brown as your starting RB. No potential for disaster there! :sidelol:

    Aside of that, the deep ball is overrated. Pennington can actually throw it believe it or not. It's the throws to the sideline that you have to worry about. I want a better QB starting for the Jets but I'd hate to see CP twice a year, especially in teal.

    Jets: Pennington not on trading block
    The News
    Chad Pennington is not on the trading block, according to the Daily News. "Chad is under contract. I'm happy he is here. Eric (Mangini) is happy he is here and the best player will play. Chad is going to be here this year," said general manager Mike Tannenbaum.

    Our View
    Pennington could easily be the starter coming out of training camp. But he and Clemens could have company this summer. The Jets held a private workout in Boston on March 21 for Boston College quarterback Matt Ryan, which was attended by Mangini, Tannenbaum and offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer. They are the three key QB decision-makers and they all would not have been there if the Jets did not have serious interest in Ryan.

    I believe if you wanted Brennan, you could get him in the fifth or sixth. His stock has drastically fallen since the Senior Bowl where he had constant troubles taking the snap under center.

    Trent Green signed with the Rams.

    I was just about to post this lol. Mangini said about a month ago the same thing. Pennington will not be going anywhere.
