Good Cuts

Several roster cuts are a very positive sign for the NY Jets as they indicate an improving talent base:

• DE Kimo von Oelhoffen - aging veteran that didn't have much left last year. He's done, and it is a good sign that the Jets have players that were able to beat him out.
• ILB Anthony Schlegel - he should have been cut last year - what the hell were they thinking when they drafted him in the 3rd round? The selection was horrendous and Jets fans must hope that the front office learns from the mistake. Sometimes character is not enough. Sometimes you need physical talent! (especially if you are selected on the 1st day of the draft!)
  
• OLB Andre Wadsworth - He was asked to learn a new position in a new system. He probably needs more reps to get comfortable, but I'm not sure if he has shown enough to be a practice squad candidate. His age and injury history limit his upside
• CB M. Collins - the team is deep enough that they didn't need him
• DE B. Hamilton - he is 36 and a warrior, but his good days are long gone
• DE M. Haynes - his inability to make the team might be a reflection on him, rather than an indicator of strong depth on the D-line (but we decided to include him on the list anyway)
