Another blocker on board

March

This time it’s fullback Tony Richardson, an 11-year vet from the Vikings. This isn’t as big as the other signings because 1) it’s only a one-year deal and 2) fullback might be the least important position on the field. Still, it’s another sign that the Jets are determined to revamp their personnel in the trenches.

Oh, and Richardson is a former Pro-Bowler, making him the fourth Pro-Bowler they’ve acquired. Seems like more than a coincidence doesn’t it? Maybe that’s why they dealt Vilma. He was only a Pro-Bowl alternate. What a scrub.

    I will miss Vilma also, but truth be told he didn’t fit into the 3-4. David Harris is the real deal so I don’t think there will be any drop off. The only question is will anybody be the emotional leader that JVil was? He got the defense pumped. Oh yeah, glad we got a decent fullback.
