www.draftinsider.net/blog/?p=10459Over the past 24 hours sources have told me two bits of free agency news. The first is the New York Jets will be in the running for Seattle Seahawks offensive lineman James Carpenter. And the second, which may be old news for some but comes from sources involved in the situation, is the belief that Julius Thomas is done in Denver.

Love this, would be a solid signing and help shore up the o-line. I would also want to kick the tires on Oher and try him out as guard depth, something this team needs badly.

This is the type of signing I would love, whether it be Geno or Mariota the interior of that line has to be better.

He's an average starter.
If we end up signing Carpenter then I hope it doesn't prevent us from chasing someone like Iupati or Franklin.

Iupati might have priced himself out, you never know. maybe he has a deal in place already with another team that noone else is willing to match. its strangely quiet on his front as he's arguably the best UFA available that will actually be on the market and not tagged.

"In the running" how? Like, you have to qualify somehow to go after someone in free agency? other than having the available cash, and a need, what else puts you "in the running"? Is it some kind of revelation that the Jets need help on the Oline?

i imagine its actual dialogue the jets have had with his rep. pauline is usually on the money. so in the running then would likely mean we're on his short list and may already have an offer from us, as many free agents likely already do

Is it some kind of revelation that the Jets need help on the Oline? It probably means in addition to the Jets wanting him, that the Jets are also on Carpenter's list....and perhaps it is a very short list. None of us know for sure but as stated above, Pauline has a very good track record on these kinds of things. |
