Thomas Jones is at an age where the age wall could hit fast and hard.
Yes, and Fred Taylor is a spring chicken

Jets signed ILB Bart Scott to a five-year, $40 million contract.
Clearly, Scott was looking to max out. The "Mad Backer" turned down a deal from Baltimore worth $7.5 million annually to get $8 million a year from New York. Scott, 29 in August, will start inside next to David Harris. Rex Ryan is more familiar with Scott and figures to use him in the old Ray Lewis role while Harris takes on more blocks. Scott is a disruptive blitzer when given the freedom to do so. He's also durable and will be an IDP to target.
I think we will move either Thomas or Vrabel inside to team with Mayo and Guyton at ILB.
NFL net is reporting this isnt over yet. Apperently Scott has gone back to the Ravens to see if they will up their offer.
With Breakdowns in negotiations between Ray and the Ravens might they up their offer.
interesting....
The gap is closeing. +1 for the Jets.
