Jonathan Vilma
4 March 2008
I could see signing a middle linebacker with the sad but inevitable departure of Jonathan Vilma, but Eric Barton, Victor Hobson, and Bryan Thomas are all viable threats in the 3-4. With some better defensive play-calling and the progression of second-year inside linebacker David Harris, the New York linebacking corps was heading in the right direction. I’m sure Pace will be able to bring his talents effectively to the Jets; I’m just not sure there weren’t more pressing needs this off-season. The 42 million dollars they used to get Calvin Pace could have helped court a shut-down corner to compliment Darrelle Reavis and help replace the recently cut Andre Dyson.
