<p class="">This is a surprise: <a class="" href='https://twitter.com/hashtag/Jets?src=hash'>#Jets</a> QB Ryan Fitzpatrick is expected to hit the free agent market, sources say. Sides are far apart on a potential deal

Quote:The Giants need pass rushers as bad as the Jags do yet they're not aggressively pursuing JPP. Beware the player with more P's in his name than fingers on his hand. Pass on JPP.


Than let them miss out.


I'm not sold on JPP yet, but he still got great pressure last year. He struggled getting the guy down but that was his first year after a major thing happened injury wise. Once he gets used to what he has to do we'll see how he does. Still better than most guys on the dline besides malik, vernon, and maybe another guy or two at best probably.

Things could get interesting for a division rival:

Quote:Report: Texans expected to contact Osweiler

Brock Osweiler | DEN

(March 7, 2016 8:28 AM EST)


News 9 Denver's Mike Klis reports the Texans are expected to contact free agent Brock Osweiler's representatives early in the legal tampering period.


This should not come as a surprise. The Texans are in desperate need of an upgrade at quarterback, and Yahoo's Charles Robinson reported Osweiler could be a "far bigger target than anyone anticipates" for Houston. Klis reports the Broncos have a three-year deal worth more than $45 million on the table, but Osweiler is smart to see if he can better that offer in a cap-rich market. It remains likely Osweiler stays in Denver, but it is far from a certainty.

Doubt it. No reason to pay big for a 3rd WR who has injury problems.

Not a big Osweiler fan but it would suck to see the Texans get an upgrade at QB in fa like that.


Worried about Fitzpatrick too. He was solid in NYJ last year.

I agree. Jags have a solid group of young WR.  No gracias Victor Cruz.

<p class="">Source says Colts have ex-Pats TE Scott Chandler in for a visit today.

<p class=""> 

<p class="">^Perhaps a sign they're moving on from both Fleener and Allen?
