yay jets football can't wait
Thanks, I'm glad to be back. It's been a long journey relocating (3 mos. start to finish) and trying to get caught up with the merge. I'm glad to see that I was able to log in without registering. Are the post count from the other site being transferred here as well?
I really appreciate that. Thanks for the welcome.

FLORHAM PARK — The activity at One Jets Drive on Thursday wasn't all about defensive end Sheldon Richardson's arrest, what he had to say before the rest of the planet knew about arrest, and how his arrestmay impact him and the Jets. The team really did hold a training camp practice, too. It was their first of the summer. Players wore helmets and shorts, but no pads. Pads come later.
Some things we noticed:
1. Geno Smith vs. Ryan Fitzpatrick. Because it's always about the quarterbacks with the Jets, isn't it? Darryl Slater has a more detailedreport here. Just know that both quarterbacks seemed to look sharper as the day wore on. It was interesting at one point to see general manager Mike Maccagnan, with his ever-present coffee in hand, making his way over to Smith during a position drill for a close-up look. All eyes really are on Smith this summer.
2. Right guard. Brent Qvale, an undrafted free agent from last year who spent his rookie season on the practice squad, split the first-team reps with Brian Winters, who began last year as the starting left guard before tearing his ACL. The Jets are clearly tinkering at right guard. We'll b watching to see if Oday Aboushi or Dakota Dozier get any runs with the 1s on Friday.
3. Sheldon Richardson. Before the arrest thing, which no one—not even the folks upstairs—knew about, Richardson ran with the second-team defense. The Jets were already aware that Richardson had been suspended for the first four games of the regular season, so they're already planning their practices for just that. Rookie Leonard Williams and usual-backup Leger Douzable both got snaps with the first-team defense in Richardson's stead.
4. Play of the day. Shaq Evans, a fourth-round pick who spent last season on the practice squad, smoked cornerback Antonio Cromartie for a long touchdown in a 7-on-7 drill, with quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick hitting Evans in stride. Cromartie wasn't all bad on Thursday, though later on, undrafted free agent Jonathon Rumph faked him out on a quick out, and Cromartie got up after the play and grabbed his ankle, though he turned out to be fine.
6. Who played well?Wideout T.J. Graham made a bunch of catches all over the field. Cornerback Dexter McDougle, coming off ACL surgery, looked pretty good and even had an interception. Fitzpatrick has a strong arm. Running back Daryl Richardson, who was on last year's practice squad, showed a burst of speed. And tight end Wes Saxton made a couple of nice catches.5. Dee Milliner. Milliner, who's coming back from a torn Achilles and did not start camp on the PUP list, was kept out of team drills, though head coach Todd Bowles said Milliner should begin to transition back into the mix in the days ahead. More here.
7. Who didn't play well? It was one practice, so let's not get carried away, but rookie quarterback Bryce Petty, who likely won't play this year anyway, had a bit of a tough go.
The Jets are back at it Friday, with stretching at 1:50 p.m. and practice slated to start at 2:20.

Unfortunately they will not be transferred. Sorry about that.

As group of PR prepare to field punts, coaches throwing gloves up in the air in front of them to create distraction. No muffs yet #Jets
probably for emergency situations, or if a game is on the line, he's sure handed and trusted
