Bing?

Special team coach vacancy.

I think McChesney quits football.

If i recall wasn't Bing ranked fairly high when he entered the draft. I remember being upset that we passed on him based on what his draft value was at the time, can't remember which draft anymore but i think we took Eric Smith instead. Any ideas why he was released?

Darian Barnes left us and signed with Buffalo. Didn't really help us that much. Hopefully we can get Owen Schmitt, or Peyton Hillis in the draft

Suggestion:

Why dont you add a list of players whose contract will be expired after this season. So that way we will know who may or may not be gone after season.

Add Damien Woody and Calvin Pace to that list... NYJ is making some serious noise in the FA market.
