For those keeping track of ex-#Jets, the Dolphins waived WR Ryan Spadola today.
— Dennis Waszak Jr. (@DWAZ73) August 26, 2014
#Jets: 5,823 passing yds from 2012-2013 (~182 ypg). Peyton Manning, 2013: 5,477 yds (342.3), one game shy of tying Jets' 2-season total.

So, when we're talking about Stephen Hill underperforming, let's not forget what's been surrounding him.
— Erik Frenz (@ErikFrenz) August 26, 2014
Pretty cool running into @DavidNelson86 today at #Jets. The #Gators 5th WR is now entering his 5th NFL season. Great story of perseverance

@CP3_850 I highly recommend the 22-oz. bone-in ribeye, followed by a dessert of Matt Barkley's soul.

Muhammad Wilkerson on possibility of new contract: "If it happens, it happens." Says he's not sweating it, only focused on reg season. #nyj

@RotoPat Just like in Feb when everyone said "Decker is going to be so overpaid" and then ignored that he got a reasonable contract.

Eric Decker caught eight touchdowns from TIM TEBOW in 2011. Think he'll find a way to make it work with Geno Smith.

With ADPs all but settled, here are 10 final-week bargains: http://t.co/qmhDnx3Nei Eric Decker, Jeremy Hill, Ingram, Kelce, etc.

Philadelphia - Eagle WR Brad Smith talking to Jets assistant Eric Smith on the pregame field. Two good guys.
— Dan Leberfeld (@jetswhispers) August 28, 2014
Jets call timeout to pull Vick off the field after one play. Classy nod to Philly fans. Simms is up.
— Around The NFL (@AroundTheNFL) August 28, 2014
Matt Simms gives Vick his cap and bows. LOL
— Erik from @JetsTwit (@e_man) August 28, 2014
LeQuan Lewis makes a good break & takes sure points away from the Eagles with an end zone pick of Barkley. Lewis made himself the WR there.
— Eric Allen (@eallenjets) August 28, 2014
Another bad read from Simms there. Had Hill open to his left. #NYJ
— Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 28, 2014
How about LeQuan Lewis. Follows up the pick with a great tackle on punt coverage.
— Dan Leberfeld (@jetswhispers) August 28, 2014
@nflnetwork You're taking off Jets-Eagles game for Cleveland after advertising all week that Jets would be on!!! Pathetic! #Jets #notfair
— Connie Carberg (@ConnieScouts) August 28, 2014
I spoke too soon. LeQuan Lewis just got toasted by A. Benn for a 43-yard TD. #nyj

Simms to Pantale for 50 yards. New Jersey connection. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 28, 2014
Simms had Salas open for the TD on 4th-and-2 but overshot him to the corner of the end zone. #NYJ

Eagles offensive line is pushing the Jets around. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 28, 2014
20 minutes into the game. Stephen Hill has not been targeted yet. I mean, come on. #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 28, 2014
Simms throws to Stephen Hill ... and he drops it when he hits the ground. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 29, 2014
Clyde Gates drops a pass from Matt Simms. The Fearsome Foursome (Hill, Gates, Salas, Hakim) not exactly jumping off the page tonight #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 29, 2014
Jeremiah George with a massive hit on Matthew Tucker. Felt it from here. #Jets
— Dennis Waszak Jr. (@DWAZ73) August 29, 2014
Will Campbell playing defensive line.
— Jake Steinberg (@Steiny31) August 29, 2014
A challenge in the fourth preseason game. Come on Rex. You're killing me.
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 29, 2014
Tajh Boyd begins the second half at QB. Matt Simms finished 7 for 17 for 121 yards, 3 scrambles for 18 yards. #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 29, 2014
Looks like Stephen Hill's night is over. Two targets. One catch for 13 yards. One drop. Good enough to make the cut? #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 29, 2014
Don't even know how to describe that play. Boyd throws up a prayer that somehow wasn't INT'd and Gates hauls in the TD (even with IC flag).
— Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 29, 2014
Tajh Boyd to Clyde Gates for 42-yd TD strike 3:42 into 3rd qtr. Gates first Jets WR w/ 2 preseason TD catches since Santonio Holmes in '11.
— Randy Lange (@rlangejets) August 29, 2014
Loudest cheers of the night have been for the Eagles field goals.
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 29, 2014
Hakim needs to be MUCH more decisive if he wants to bring the ball out from that deep in the end zone. Wasting time back there. #NYJ
— Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 29, 2014
Caleb Schlauderaff in at center. Could be his final minutes as a Jet. Pour one out. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 29, 2014
I think I just saw Rex look longingly across the field at Sanchez wishing he could put him in this game right now. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 29, 2014
This is a meaningless stat, but the Jets D has allowed 557 total yards, including 265 rushing yards. #NYJ
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 29, 2014
According to gamebook, leading tacklers for #Jets: @RontezMiles with 10 (incl. 1 on ST) and @jaiquawnjarrett, with 9.

Tajh Boyd compared his preseason experience to importing NCAA draft class into Madden and seeing the ratings drop. Tremendous answer. #NYJ
— Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 29, 2014
While the Jets' secondary will help Carr, they don't make defensive lines like that one in college. Rough baptism.
— Cian Fahey (@Cianaf) August 29, 2014
Bucs cut Keith Lewis. He had a strong camp & an INT last night. #Jets were all over him in the pre-draft process. Name to keep an eye on.

Prevented preseason OT RT @MikeKlis: #Broncos auditioning some young kickers today, including Andrew Furney, who kicked well in #Jets camp.
— Seth Walder (@SethWalderNYDN) August 30, 2014
Harris and D. Davis play almost every down and have been very durable. My guess is that #NYJ likes long term potential of George over Edds.

Tajh Boyd: Former First Round Mock Draft Pick
— Ben Natan (@BenNatan2) August 30, 2014
There's a difference between discounting a guy after two years in a bad situation, and writing him off entirely.
— Aaron Schatz (@FO_ASchatz) August 30, 2014
Can we all admit that if Stephen Hill had struggled similarly for Jacksonville, nobody would make fun of him in the same way?
— Aaron Schatz (@FO_ASchatz) August 30, 2014
People like making fun when the Jets have failures, especially draft failures. Also cut today? Jerel Worthy, chosen 8 picks after Hill.
— Aaron Schatz (@FO_ASchatz) August 30, 2014
No, they made their own stupid bust pick five picks later, Tavon Wilson @thephilcollier Unfortunately NE didn't draft him
— Aaron Schatz (@FO_ASchatz) August 30, 2014
>on Hill.RT @BrianCoz: #Jets traded 5th and 7th rounders to move up in 2nd. Traded them to Seattle, where Idzik was in front office.
— Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) August 30, 2014
Drafting with hindsight is easy. Jets were not the only 1s who liked HIll more than Jeffrey. Kiper and PFW both had Hill rated higher. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 30, 2014
This Is one of the Hardest times of the Year for me Watching Good men who bleed the game get cut Never Take a Day in your Cleats for granted
— Willie Colon (@willcolon66) August 30, 2014
Per @FO_ASchatz point on Jets: CIN took D.Still 53rd overall in 2012, cut him today after zero starts. Nobody's busting on them.
— Vincent Verhei (@FO_VVerhei) August 30, 2014
Another early trend of the cuts: High draft picks go earlier than they use to a few years ago.
— Pete Prisco (@PriscoCBS) August 30, 2014
Over the last 2 yrs, former Jets WR Stephen Hill had the second-lowest catch pct (45.0) in the NFL, per @ESPNStatsInfo. #nyj
— Rich Cimini (@RichCimini) August 30, 2014
Rontez Miles has to be wondering what it takes to make an initial 53-man roster. High effort/motor type. Versatile. Cheap. Strange... #NYJ
— Chris Lopresti (@CLoprestiWFAN) August 30, 2014
I'll say to this to Rontez Miles fans - Antonio Allen didn't make the #Jets final roster in 2012 and look at him now
— Joe Caporoso (@TurnOnTheJets) August 30, 2014
Have 2 be able to do more than run fast in a straight line to be a quality WR in the #NFL. Barely saw even that from S. Hill this preseason.
— Louis Riddick (@LRiddickESPN) August 30, 2014
Edds is a surprise too. Was playing with 2s. Jeremiah George's good night on thurs may have cost him
— Ryan Alfieri (@Ryan_Alfieri) August 30, 2014
Heard this: #Bengals already have worked out former #Raiders and #Jets WR Jacoby Ford.
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) August 30, 2014
I think we can now say the Dimitri Patterson signing was an utter disaster. Questionable move from Day 1, reflects poorly on Idzik. #nyj

With Rex Ryans secondary in absolute shambles who would he rather see: Derek Carr or Matt Schaub next Sunday? #easyanswer

CB Champ Bailey has been released by the Saints. Once upon a time, ex- Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum tried hard to trade for Bailey. #nyj
— Rich Cimini (@RichCimini) August 30, 2014
10 of the Jets' 12 draft picks made the 53-man roster. Only Tajh Boyd & Brandon Dixon were cut. Definitely not a meritocracy. #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 30, 2014
Biggest surprises to me that made it: T.J. Barnes, Trevor Reilly, Jeremiah George and Quincy Enunwa. #nyj
— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) August 30, 2014
Like Westy always said: How do you make the team? Special teams.

No Rex Ryan sighting at Clemson/UGA. Jets (and Giants) have seats reserved for scouts inside Sanford Stadium.
— Kevin Armstrong (@KevinGArmstrong) August 30, 2014
Remember not too long ago when the #Jets had 4 QBs on the roster?
— Deb (@LilMissNYJet) August 30, 2014
Trend among Jets' cuts: A handful of vets (McIntyre, Hill, Richardson, Edds, etc) replaced by rookies that are at least a yr away. #nyj
— Rich Cimini (@RichCimini) August 30, 2014
Lost in all S. Hill-D. Patterson Jets news today was this: Dalton Freeman won the backup center job. Caleb Schlauderaff Era is over #nyj

Pettine didn't want him. "@MMehtaNYDN: Jets have claimed former Browns cornerback Leon McFadden off waivers, per source. #nyj"
— Chris Burke (@ChrisBurke_SI) August 31, 2014
underrated reason why Hill was cut: he doesnt play special teams. Enunwa does.
— Ryan Alfieri (@Ryan_Alfieri) August 31, 2014
New Jets cornerback Leon McFadden, who was claimed off waivers today, committed 7 penalties for the Browns this preseason. 7!!! #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 31, 2014
@MMehtaNYDN McFadden was over-drafted. Total project and depth at best. Not a good sign he's cut by a team running the same system.
— Marc Sessler (@MarcSesslerNFL) August 31, 2014
Former Jets WR Stephen Hill passed through waivers unclaimed. He's a free agent now. Practice Squad eligible too, per new PS rules. #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) August 31, 2014
To make room for CB Leon McFadden, the Jets waived CB LeQuan Lewis. None of the players cut yesterday by the Jets were claimed. #nyj
