Maybe it's a sign he is making claims and seeing how things turn out before he lets our names start to come out in case we need to hold on to one or more

That's exactly what I think is going on Nick

Yikes. Just saw that Wesley Johnson earned a -9.1 run block grade from @PFF last night. That seems extreme. #NYJ

Just read this article from Dom Cosentino on NJ.com -- apparently Matt Flynn's salary is not guaranteed if he is on the roster for week 1. Since he collected "termination pay" two years ago from the Raiders, and a player cannot collect twice in his career. Gives him a leg up vs Johnson.

http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/2015/08/what_kind_of_contract_did_matt_flynn_get_from_jets.html

"If he were to get cut before the start of the season, Flynn would only get his $60,000 signing bonus. If he were to get cut at any point during the season, his $870,000 in base pay would be pro-rated based on the number of weeks he's on the roster.

And if Flynn were to be released after Week 1, he would be ineligible for termination pay, since he already collected it after the Raiders cut him two years ago. Players are only eligible to receive termination pay one time."

I saw that. I was unaware that a player could only collect it once. Interesting.

I wonder if my boy Wes Saxton made the team? (I went to school at South Alabama, so that would be cool!)

Its possible. I am rooting for the kid, but I think practice squad is more likely.

So, are you a Montreal Alouette fan too -- isn't that where Brandon Bridge wound up?

I suspect the bulk of the Jets cuts are going to happen right at the deadline. This has got to have these bubble players climbing the walls

Of the TE's that are currently on the roster, he would make my team.

Unfortunately for Wes I think the Jets are going to make a move there that will cost him his spot. PS?

Not a big CFL fan, but I liked Bridge a lot, he made a lot of plays for us

No news yet on the Josh Johnson front, either. Source says QB hasn’t heard from #Jets yet, either. “Right now, no news is good news"
