ESPN New York reports the Jets haven't
"slammed the door shut" on adding
another quarterback to replace David
Garrard.
The free-agent market is barren, but one
name that sticks out is Trent Edwards.
Edwards was with new Jets OC Marty
Mornhinweg in Philadelphia last season.
Including the preseason, the 29-year-old
completed over 68 percent of his passes
and threw for four touchdowns. Edwards
wouldn't be an option to start, but he
knows the offense and could hold the
clipboard for Geno Smith if the Jets are
intent on dumping Mark Sanchez.
The Eagles have been working WR Jason
Avant at defensive back.
Coach Chip Kelly is certainly putting his
stamp on the team. We already
mentioned how TE Clay Harbor was
dabbling at outside linebacker. Avant set
a career-high with 53 catches last season,
but he's nothing more than a middling
slot talent with no big-play ability. The
Eagles traded for Arrelious Benn, and
Avant might be on the outside looking in
at the 53-man roster.
