Default Jets are "discussing" signing free agent Adalius Thomas

Its already started

ESPN's Chris Mortensen confirms that the Jets are "discussing" signing free agent Adalius Thomas.

The Jets' pre-draft addition of Jason Taylor apparently hasn't killed their interest in another aging outside linebacker. Taylor, though, is only slated to play 30 or so snaps per game, and Rex Ryan is a believer in Thomas' talent. Together, they'd easily be an upgrade over incumbent OLB Bryan Thomas.

Double gain if the Jets sign him, strengthen us by subtraction, and get a bad player on the field for our competition.

Can't wait for the Vollmer pancake of AD.

Won't be shocked when he picks up right where he left off in Baltimore. Ryan knows how to use him. And with their secondary potentially being pretty damn good, it will be a hell of lot easier to get sacks than it was in New England. In fact, the Jets signing Thomas would really make this rivalry fun to watch.

Ryan will just send him after the quarterback on every down. I doubt he'll have as many coverage responsibilities in that defense as he did in our's. Regardless though, I do agree that he'll be better with the Jets than he was with us.

That was my whole point. And like I said, it helps to have a lock down CB in Revis and potentially good play from Cromartie and Wilson.
