Who will emerge in the # 3 slot ?

As I read through the thoughts and comments of many Jet fans it would appear that there is a concern for our 3rd receiver slot. HMMM! What is everyone worried about? I won’t even get into the tight end corps, but I see some great talent at the 3rd slot. Last season I liked Brad Smith and he should have gotten the ball over Justin "Butter Hands" McCareins more often. I'll be nice and just say that I am glad to be rid of McCareins! But seriously what happened to Brad Smith, I guess Mangini took something away from New England and that is his unwillingness to disclose information. The versatile Smith is entering his third year and looked poised to have a great season this year.

I know it's early, but I am impressed with the speed and dedication of 2nd year wide receiver Chansi Stuckey although he can be considered injury prone after breaking his foot twice since his senior year. David Clowney another 6 foot target with a ton of speed as you saw in the pre-season opener against the Browns, Clowney was picked up by the Jets off the Packers wavers last October. And it would be hard to overlook the 6'4" Marcus Henry out of Kansas as who has decent speed and hands he should be a nice big target for Brett.

So stop the whining all you Jet fans, we're looking good. If you want to complain about something lets start with all the poser fans who are going to be rooting for the Jets this year, they will be easy to find they already ordered a #4 Jersey... but that will be another blog.
