ESPN reported today that John Idzik just arrived at Radio City for the draft and asked where everyone is.
How nice to have a GM who is not only sharp but also moves at human speed with regard to making trades and signing FAs.

How nice to have a GM who is not only sharp but also moves at human speed with regard to making trades and signing FAs. no argument that idzik had to go, and to a lesser extent rex, but we still need to consider the fact that the money maccagnan had to sign players like revis and cromartie existed because idzik cleared cap space. and even though idzik's draft picks don't look very good right now, if geno, milleiner, macdougal etc turn out to being really good players then even his scouting acumen needs to be vidicated a bit. maccagnon is heading into a no brainer season. evrything looks very good because everything was looking pretty bad. let's see if the qb situation gets straightened out and the jets return to being a playoff caliber team before heaping too much praise. don't get me wrong, i like what he's done and i think this team is heading in the right direction but the nfl isn't rocket science. |

The rexapalooza has officially left the building and the rest of the world is taking notice We have not seen Bowles coach a game yet. So I am not sure about "rexapalooza", but Idzik's replacement, Maccagnan, has been stellar thus far through both FA and the Draft. |

He seemed to be standing still when the rest of the league was running circles around him, first in FA and then after the draft. |

Wasn't really rocket science on which players to cut to create most of the cap space. |

I distinctly remember Jason writing an article saying which players had to go for cap space and it was exactly the Blueprint Idzik followed. If Jason and the posters of JI knew who to cut then it was a no brainer for even an incompetent GM. |

Cutting players that don't have cap hits and. It resigning players to creat space doesn't take a rocket scientist. Signing players lets who stay healthy, who have talent does. Drafting players with talent who will contribute more so. Recognizing when a position has been made barren through attrition and injury does. yeah, we had lots of cap space. And because Idzik marched out a non NFL team last year and put a team on the field that was incapable of winning. If he had spit talent into the roster Maccagnan wouldn't have had to sign as many as he had to sign. That's not a good thing. |
