Harrison tendered at the 2nd rounder

[nycdan]

NFL has clamped down a bit on poison pill offers. And with the Jets' cap room, other teams may not even bother wasting time trying to sign him knowing we can match any offer.

i disagree. we know harrison can play the game, and play it well. a 2nd round pick (especially if it's a late pick, like say NE's) is no certainty to be a productive player. and if we lose ellis in FA (he could sign elsewhere while the harrison situation plays out), we then have a gaping hole in the middle of the d-line. and then we need to use a draft pick on the spot which could be used elsewhere.

if it were a 1st round tender, i may agree, although i personally would still keep snacks. but not a 2nd

All very interesting, while he's not the traditional DT that would fill a guy like Wilforks spot, he could be extremely effective moving around the Pats D-line. I don't understand a 2nd round tender for a guy like this unless the Jets are very sure of matching whatever his offers end up being.

Did anyone bite on Snacks? I haven't read that anyone has shown any interest.

TJ barnes is another awesome NT. jets with Snacks, Ellis, and barnes were stacked last year.

I loved the sack he had in preseason last year http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/0ap3000000375260/T-J-Barnes-sacks-Chandler-Harnish

He's a backup that adds depth as I'm not sure he can ever anchor against the run like Snacks does. You never know with the right coaching down the road though as Snacks proved it can be done...
