Jets off-season drama is just so much fun ...

[IndianaJones]

I'm not surprised by this.He was a wasted pick.The jets should've just package that 2nd,with another pick and traded for kirk cousins.

[Nadine]

well, they are competing at the same spot

wouldn't he appear 'less than' by going?

Cousins has barely done anything in the league. Why would they do that?

Supposedly it is a team buidling thing. But I agree. Not sure if I would go either but the NY press is making a big deal out of it not surprisingly ..

Kirk is the premier back-up QB(young too) in all of football.That's why.

[SilentHill]

, poor Jets. They will be in the running for the #1 pick next year.

[LockeDown]

Team building camp?  What they need is an "anonymous quote camp".

[Fx Stryker]

Man the AFCE is a beautiful division to watch this off-season.

 

But if I was Smith I wouldn't go either. Sanchez's butt will probably making an appearance sooner or later. Not something I would want to see.

Yeah, I agree. Kind of an awkward situation for a guy who's trying to compete for the starting job. So much of Jets West is about Sanchez flexing his leadership muscles. Bringing everyone to his place, leading practices, leading film sessions. Tebow went last year and Brunell went the year before, but neither of those guys were legitimate competition for Sanchez. And there was no media access those off seasons and this year for the first time ever Sanchez decided to add a media day. Just awkward.

 

Still, if he thought he could learn anything at all then he probably should've gone. Deal with the awkwardness and learn as much as possible to beat Sanchez out.

Uh, no he isn't.

Were talking about Mark Sanchez Camp here on passing....Mark Sanchez......Not Joe Namath..........No big deal

A second-round pick and another for a 4th-rounder that hasn't proved anything? That wouldn't be very wise on the Jets part.

You gotta love Stephen A. Smith's comment "on a fast track to nowhere" & Skip Bayless's comment "Mark Sanchez is whistling through the graveyard."   The real question is how quickly will Rex Ryan be fired? Will he actually be allowed to finish the season or not?

 

I do love a good train wreck though. To paraphrase WR Terrell Owens "I've got my popcorn ready!" [& my 3D glasses too] MMM...MMM good!

Way to put the circumstance in it's proper context & perspective Gavin! Nicely done!

This.  For all we know, Geno could be learning from Joe Montana right now.  While cohesion with teammates is important, he's probably going to be "2nd string" in whatever Sanchez is doing right now.  He probably needs to focus on preparing himself, mechanics, etc.

 

No big deal on this.

Smith is a show off and waives some red flags!

[pacolts56]

And he is missing out on exactly what?

 

A golden opportunity to learn the art of throwing interceptions?

[Slick_Rick]

Your profile picture disturbs me. Much like watching Rex Ryan "run" down the sidelines.

I think he's giving Lessons in Bum Rushing, fumbling reps included.

Normally, I don't kick a QB when his job & NFL livelihood is on the line, but darn PAC56 that was hilarious!     

 

When most people refer to "crack," they are usually referring to an illegal narcotic not Mr. Butt Fumble Sanchez. Sorry Mark that's gotta hurt man...

Maybe Shakedownstreet's avatar is like the motto "drink tell she's beautiful" philosophy.   Just Kidding! Only teasing SDS!

Learning from Mark Sanchez is unwise. 

[southwest1]

It's hard to believe that Mark Sanchez got the Jets close to a SB appearance in the 1st couple of seasons at the helm as the starting QB isn't it? It's seems so bizarre to acknowledge that now...

 

If I was Smith, I would want Sanchez to start the season. Why should he get creamed with no real WRs & TEs to throw to? Besides Mark Sanchez is no leader. He instills no confidence in anyone. The fan base is threw with Sanchez. Just ask Fireman Ed.

[southwest1]

Darn Shakedownstreet, your avatar makes me finally understand what the expression: "A face that only a mother can love." 1 Question: Is the mother blind too? because that would help tremendously.

 

Perhaps, reading this children's book will give your avatar some peace of mind too...Just Joking again SDS...

After last season and all its ugliness you would figure the Jets would make some big changes and they began to with getting a new GM but yet kept the same coach and same QB.  And then they draft Smith who everyone was down on before and after the draft. I really don't know how much that fanbase is supposed to take. During mini-camp Ryan said the receivers they do have were dropping a ton of balls. I didn't think it was possible but the Jets may be much worse this year then last year ...

[HarryTheCat]

If I was a Jets fan (and by the grace of God I'm not!) I wouldn't be too excited about Smith.  His pouty little display at the draft when he wasn't taken in the first round revealed a lot about his character, and it wasn't pretty. Not a guy you would want as a teammate.

Unless you want to perfect the art of the butt fumble .  He made it look easy a real pro in action ..

[shakedownstreet]

[ruksak]

Ya see....I could do that without attending camp.

I'm sure Geno would benefit from missing Joe's camp also. Unless he wants to throw more picks than TDs.

No argument there HTC, but what make me roll me eyes was when Smith said that the Jets would make the Playoffs this year. Yeah right, keep telling yourself that kid & I will sell you the Brooklyn Bridge too.
