some interesting names. I don't want us to build this way, but we need to hit a couple. Here are 5 I think we should target, maybe landing 2-3:

1. Martellus Bennett
2. Ron Leary
3. JPP - need to address this to be serious about winning the East
4. Stephon Gilmore
5. Lawrence Timmons

*Terrelle Pryor as a wildcard.

I also would consider Rex Ryan as DC if VJ leaves. RR's familiarity with the division, especially us could put us over the top defensively. He won't get another HC job, so he could be stable for us there. Plus a perspective of a head coach is helpful

better players? You guys focus way to much on the coaching and way too little on how bad some of our players were.

Vance is good as gone too. So you have to get players and a DC

Rex has always been a good DC but he doesn't fit at all with what Gase is about. There's no chance Gase would want Rex in the building if Vance leaves.

^^^^^ AGREE 100% ^^^^^

Leadership isn't getting people to line up behind you; it is getting them to join you.

Sometimes the journey is as important as the destination.

The little things matter. Winning starts by not beating ourselves.

Mornings are for coffee and contemplation.

Well this defense has been atrocious. They need a miracle and if they dont spend $, they need a guy who understands defenses. Being in the Div helps

I think we're finally in a position to build mainly through the draft, but a fee free agents certainly couldn't hurt.

Rex coaches a 3-4, we are a base 4-3. There would be too much retooling to change AGAIN. I dont see it as a realistic fit.

You really need to put a center on that list. Pouncey as great as he is, is completely unreliable and the dropoff is too great.

Can we all take a step back off the ledge and remember that this is our first season in a totally new system on both sides of the ball...and we still made the playoffs.

Assuming Vance doesn't take a HC position there's no reason to replace him after his first year. Need to give the guy some time to develop the defense. Rome wasn't built in a day.

We're actually in a very good cap situation this offseason. We will have about 65 million in cap room after cutting Albert, Williams, Misi, Dion Jordan maybe, earl mitchell maybe. And there are plenty of really good guards available if we really wanted to shore up the offensive line.

If VJ goes to Denver he may want his own guys... (I'm hoping that he doesn't leave) but...

Wade Phillips as new DC?

He and Gase have history. Don't think it's good.

maybe that's an issue too. with this defense, it all has to be looked at. IF VJ is gone, we have to be open to be a 3-4

Burke is the DC in waiting, no change in scheme needed.

Let's look at that Rex Ryan knows the AFC East so well narrative!

Week 2: GAVE UP 37 points to the Jets.
Week 3: Shutout New England who didnt have ANY QB available in that game wow.
Week 6: Dolphins drop 28 on them.
Week 7: New England gashes them for 41.
Week 16: Miami hits them for 34.
Week 17: Injury depleted checked out Jets drop 30 on them.

So against the division that REX KNOWS SO WELL, the defense ALLOWED AN AVERAGE OF 28 points against.

And his sideshow clownshoes bullshit?

Hard Pass.

Landry, every time you suggestion an addition to this org, it's a name. You are obsessed with NAMES and STAR POWER like Ross was for years.

We need to get pieces that fit what we are building and win football games not back pages.

No Distractions. No Bullshit. Execution.

And Rex (as well as Manziel, your previous project), do none of that.
