Aaron Maybin to the NY Jets

by Steve

Hahahahaha, the NY Jets signed Aaron Maybin? Are you serious? Either the Jets are desperate for a warm body or their ball boy quit. I'm honestly surprised he was signed this quickly and going to the Jets just adds to the intrigue.

Sexy Rexy sounds fully torqued:“[H]e has that body type, that long, lean body type of those great pass rushers,” Ryan said. “He can get off the football now. I think it’ll be interesting to see him in this system. I think he has a chance. You look for these kind of guys that can have that burst to the quarterback. We’re really excited that he’s here.”

Uh, what? The dude gets pancaked by running backs. He is already talking about getting to play against the Bills twice a year, “I’m not going to lie and say that that wasn’t an added bonus, but, obviously, that wasn’t the biggest factor,” Maybin said. “That is a nice little added piece to the puzzle.”

Huh? Dude you will be cut after the second preseason game bro. True we should not give even an inkling of the benefit of the doubt with this coaching staff and Buddy Nix. But we have all seen with our own eyes, the guy is too small, lacks any NFL instincts and flat out sucks. Jauron, Gailey and Wannstedt aren't exactly winners but all evaluated the guy and either couldn't find a single way to get him on the feel or didn't see any value in keeping him.

I wouldn't have hated keeping the guy for the rest of the preseason just to give him all the opportunity possible but apparently they wanted to allow him as much time as possible to catch on somewhere else. Why? Oh well, here's hoping he does make the roster and gets to play against us because the dude can only improve our chances of defeating the Jets.
