Word up here is that the Jets don't intend to bring him back next season. As we all know, we could use a weapon on offense. He has some minor injury concerns but when he's out there he's a pretty good player. All of this with Mark Sanchez at QB.

Discuss.

I think he is pretty good

Dustin Keller appears to be a better or more experienced version of Michael Egnew. A version of Michael Egnew that is proven to be at least a little effective in the NFL.

If the asking price isn't too steep, I'd sure take a look.

Surprising if they do end up letting him go. I thought he was one of sanchez's favorite targets. I'm all for bringing him in.

Another thread ruined by lucky.

It's like Michael Egnew being inactive. Never fails.

Well I've been called a lot of things in my life. Michael Egnew has never been one of them.

I laughed pretty hard when a guy I know started tweeting about how Inactive Egnew sounds like a children's cautionary tale about a fat kid.

I think ultimately you got to look into the position in the context of Joe Philbin/Mike Sherman's offense. A guy who can't block in-line is going to be split wide.

Dustin Keller is a bad in-line blocker, but he's a better receiver from that position than he is split wide, which I think might be problematic. I don't know if he can play an H-Back position as well as Charles Clay either.

Jared Cook I think is a pretty nice alternative. He's basically a giant slot receiver, he's running nearly 80% of his routes from the slot.

I think it's also possible that Antonio Gates and Jermichael Finley are on the open market or up for trade.

What makes him all that different from Anthony Fasano?

If these things are true, then why draft Egnew?

Their interest in Egnew indicates that Keller would generate interest?

Were Egnew and Keller not similar players with similar strengths and weaknesses coming out of college?

I would rather pick up one of Eiffert/Fauria/Toilolo/Ertz through the draft than sign one of the would be FAs.

I think Egnew is a guy you can split out wide, Keller not so much.
