General Notes

- Players in full pads

- Practice runs 2 hours and 20 minutes

- It was Alumni Day so there were a ton of former Jets around
signing autographs. Westhoff was there also doing work for SNY

- Kevin Vickerson, Stevan Ridley, Charles Brown and Devier Posey
were out. Posey has not been noticeable with Chris Owusu stepping
up he needs to get back on the field

- A new WR was signed he was wearing #1 . Come to find out his name
was Jarrod West. From his first practice he won't be around long,
too many drops

- Bobby April (ST coach) went over blocking kicks in the special
teams period. Using an elaborate set of cones he had them simulating
blocks from different angles. April had them running 4 at a time to
increase reps

- No pushups today so I guess there was no winner in the competition
period

- With a day off tomorrow Bowles increased the reps of the younger
players

- This isn't "sexy" but I've noticed that the communication of calls
amoung the defense is very clean. When the offense changes a look
everyone on defense is being vocal making sure everyone knows the new
call

- Defense really clamped down on the passing game particularly in the
red zone drills


Player Notes

- 1 on 1 drills today (WR vs. CB) and (TE & RB vs. LB & S) the
higlights were:

* Brandon Marshall against Darrelle Revis was a regular season battle.
Very physical, Revis got the better of the reps but Marshall
was able to get a TD and draw a flag
* Marcus Williams with a nice INT
* Shaq Evans continues to be solid with a TD
* Good coverage from Buster Skrine
* Chris Owusu continues his solid play
* Bad drops by Jeff Cumberland and Wes Saxton
* Marshall schooled Dexter McDougle by abusing him when he tried
to press and getting an easy TD

- Leonard Williams had his best day today with 2 "sacks" and a tackle
for loss during 11 on 11 drills

- Not a good day for the TE's trying to fill out the roster. Cumberland
and Saxton had bad drops and Kellen Davis continues to show why he never
got balls thrown to him. Very shaky hands

- IK Enemkpali continues to impress in his reps. He had a "sack" of
Ryan Fitzpatrick and a tackle for loss of Daryl Richardson. Bowles/Rodgers
has him flipping between DE & OLB

- Calvin Pryor finally appeared today as the defense brought pressure
from the secondary. He had one "sack" and flushed Fitzpatrick out of the
pocket for an incompletion

- Taiwan Jones continued to show good instincts in the run game by creating
two tackles for loss

- Marcus Williams in addition to his INT in 1 on 1 drills had excellent
coverage on Jeremy Kerley during 11 on 11


QB Notes

- Geno Smith had another solid day. Continuing to make good decisions on
when to throw and when NOT to throw it. His best plays where a 15 yard
out to Marshall through tight Revis coverage. And a 30+ yard seam pass
to Eric Decker over tight Marcus Gilchrist coverage

- Fitzpatrick was better than yesterday (that's not saying much) as he
cleaned up his multiple ball handling mistakes. His arm strength outside
the numbers is shaky

- Good development day for Bryce Petty. He got extended reps at the end
of practice and had nice passes to Quincy Enunwa (25+ yards) and Walter
Powell (35+ yard TD)


Standouts

- Leonard Williams
- IK Enemkpali
- Taiwan Jones
- Marcus Williams

Great report.

Glad to see Petty had a better day then yesterday. And Geno continues his no pick days going into the break.

If the Jets give Geno a full year under Gailey's offense we will fully see the progress by the middle to end of this season and beyond. I have a feeling Geno is going make people eat crow

I hope you're right. It would be a huge boost to this team if it happens. But the "supporting cast" argument has run it's course. No more excuses this year. He's got just about everything around him he needs. Put up or shut up in 2015.

The supporting cast around Geno have been bad, that's not debatable . He has not played well, but the skill position players have been terrible

Maybe

Or maybe Geno is just a very bad NFL QB.

At least he won't have the weapons, coaching and management excuses this preseason

Nope . What is he does have is the support of Most Jet fans, so far this preseason . You are In the minority

Geno Smith has thrown zero interceptions through the the first four days of training camp.
Considering Geno has been picked off 34 times in 30 NFL games, this qualifies as news. He's taken the vast majority of first-team reps and been "solid." Armed with a Chan Gailey scheme that suits his skill set and legit NFL-caliber weapons for the first time, we're expecting Geno to take a significant step forward toward two-QB league relevance.

Not even close to accurate.

I see a very large number of Jet fans 8 times a year, sometimes 70,000 plus. And in the parking lot and in the stadium, the vast majority want him as far away from MetLife and Jet football as is possible. They certainly don't want him to run his same old incompetent act out on the field for a third horrible season

Yeah alright you guys, stroke your man Geno all you want. He's played well and you guys deserve to be happy about that.

I just feel the need to remind you that he's always played during the preseason. Outplayed Mark Sanchez in 2013.

The real test is the regular season and that is where we will all see the real Geno Smith stand up. When that happens, we will see that Geno Smith is NOT an NFL caliber QB. He will NEVER be a franchise QB for the Jets and BTW that is what this team needs.

At some point this season, Geno Smith will get benched in favor of Ryan Fitzpatrick. It's inevitable. Geno Smith is way too inconsistent and he folds under pressure.

if smith in a sink or swim season is ends up "swimming" he will have earned all the credit in the world & he will absolutely get that credit from me..

but come on BX, he's been solid/flashed since his rookie year (7 on 7's) when the lights are low..

let's see how he plays when he's not wearing a red practice jersey because that's when smith has struggled..

I think I was most pleased with Leonard Williams playing well. I may not be as sold on the defense as most, especially with Richardson being out for who knows how long. I always thought they were still missing a pass rusher and hoped Williams could be another 8-9 sack guy along the line which cumulatively along with the rest of the line and linebackers might be enough to effectively pressure the opposing QB.
