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. http://www.fanballnews.com/nfl/
He may well end up the starter again this season. It's even more likely to happen if the Jets pick a day 1 QB. I'm content with another season of Pennington if we have a legit guy waiting in the wings.
It'll be a sure shot if we draft a QB. With the additions on the OL, Franks, and Richardson, the Jets are gearing up to be a run first, second, and third football team. They know that QB is an issue, and we'll find out just how much of an issue they think it is come draft day.
