We weren't expected to sign anyone big so I guess it's OK.

According to theJETSblog.com Chaz Schilens is on a plane to NY and could leave with a deal. It should make some of us happy. Landry also scheduled to meet with us.

Listen if Schilens were to sign and he were to pan out then great, if not whatever. I get the sense that Schilens would be the "number 2" because the team will be running a lot, but I believe Kerley will be more targeted receiver.

I think the Jets are most likely keeping an eye on the draft after they sign someone. The first 4 rounds have a lot of very intriguing options at receiver.

Right now the goal has to be to "fix" the safety position via free agency. Don't overpay, but don't be too laid back. The fact that no safeties have been signed keeps me calm... go out and sign 2 safeties, a WR, possibly depth on the lines and go from there. Yes, we signed BT but I'm pretty sure they'll be in hot pursuit of a LB in the draft and you can be sure they'll draft one as well. The fact that they've been connected to so many receivers says that they know it's an important need, but not important enough to throw millions at.

When it comes to drafting a WR, we are probably going to aim for Floyd in the first, or try for WR's like Nick Toon or TY Hilton in the later rounds. Hilton is going to be a play maker in this league.

If we sigh Schillens, Landry, someone like Meriweather, and a decent RT, I'd be happy with that.

I do like Chaz's potential, but hopefully just offer him a one year minimum prove it deal, with perhaps some incentives thrown in there. He just cannot stay healthy, but if he can he could be so dangerous for us.

As if we're not labeled as an all-hype team already, now we're looking into Chaz Schillens? This will be a forum-wide bloodbath.

But in all seriousness, these are exactly the caliber WRs I thought we should be looking at. Low risk, high upside guys to pair with Holmes, Kerley, Keller and a draft pick. We need guys who aren't going to demand the ball, but can do something when they get it.
