STEVE-O: Sanchez and the Day That Was

File Under: draft, Mike Tannenbaum, Eric Mangini, Brady Quinn, Woody Johnson, Kellen Clemens, Brett Favre, Mark Sanchez, day one

Draft, day one ... short and sweet. I can't believe I bought a PSP to kill time for what was sure to be a long day. I didn't even get to create my own player on MLB The Show before we started hearing rumblings the Jets were moving up in the draft.

At first, we heard it was a deal with the Jags at eight if Mark Sanchez was there. But because that was so public, the Redskins could've jumped in fron… More

A Score of Sixth Picks That Run the Gamut

File Under: draft, Richard Seymour, sixth overall selection, Lawrence Phillips, Johnathan Sullivan, David Klingler, Walter Jones, Tim Brown, Torry Holt

The Jets own the sixth overall selection in this weekend’s draft. It got us thinking which player was selected in the same slot last year, and then we ultimately decided to examine the past two decades.

2007 — Washington Redskins: LaRon Landry, S, LSU

On their Website, the 'Skins tout Landry as “a Pro Bowl caliber safety.” The 6’0”, 213-pounder definitely impressed in his rookie campaign, to… More

File Under: draft, Mike Tannenbaum, Darrelle Revis, Jacob Bender, Eric Mangini, Chansi Stuckey, Randy Moss, 2007 NFL Draft

The Jets' strange draft is over, and Mike Tannenbaum and Eric Mangini seem pleased and not too tired after the way it all unfolded — two first-day tradeups for top defensive players, two late second-day stay-at-home picks for lesser known offensive players.

In a little banter to capture the mood, Dave Hutchinson of the Star-Ledger asked Tannenbaum, "With this draft, Mike, how did you change you… More

Drive and Desire in Round 6

File Under: draft, Jacob Bender, DeMatha High School, sixth-round pick, 2007 NFL Draft

It's been a quiet Day Two for the Green & White so far. But the quiet ended a few minutes ago when the team took the latest player to have core Jet values stamped all over him.

Jacob Bender, the sixth-round pick on Sunday afternoon, was a team captain at Division I-AA Nicholls State in southeastern Louisiana.

And he's a self-made, blue-collar guy. One memory he has from growing up in Maryland, … More

Live from New York

File Under: draft, New York City, Radio City Music Hall, 2007 NFL Draft

Where else but New York City in late April can you see Peyton Manning, Jonathan Vilma, Brett Favre and Donovan McNabb strolling around midtown?

At least I thought it was those guys. They were in their game unis. But come to think of it, Manning looked like he let himself go since the Super Bowl, Vilma looked small and pale, McNabb had green hair and Favre shaved his head. Maybe they were just d… More
