Jets Additions Create Test for Locker Room

The new Jets regime that came in with new head coach Rex Ryan is proving to be just aggressive in their roster moves as they are with their blitzing defense. Looking an awful lot like the Dallas Cowboys this offseason, the Jets have taken chances by trading for two players with off-the-field problems (Antonio Cromartie, Santonio Holmes) and signing a potentially over-the-hill running back (LaDainian Tomlinson). Recent reports of the Jets trying to sign former sack-master Jason Taylor go right in line with all of their other moves. There's no doubt about it, this new regime is much more concerned with what you can do, or have done, on the field rather than what you do while off it.

Does anyone else find it interesting

that LT was quoted as saying that the locker room was too immature and had too many distractions, that the team (namely the younger players) were more interested in partying than playing football?

Now he is on a team that seems to be insistent on taking players with huge egos and off-field issues.

The Jets’ off season reminds me of playing Madden.

I would never sign LT in madden.
