Is any team this JaStupid?

Sources tell ESPNNewYork.com that the Jets have checked on JaMarcus Russell, and they have cursory interest in the former Oakland Raiders bust who was cut recently after reportedly ballooning to 300 pounds.

The Jets are looking to acquire a veteran quarterback before training camp and, while league sources maintain that free agent Mark Brunell remains the odds-on favorite, Tannenbaum isn't ignoring other options. Russell, the No. 1 overall pick in 2007, is training in Arizona, trying to get in shape. Sources say the Arizona Cardinals or the Minnesota Vikings are the most likely landing spot for Russell, but the Jets have inquired by phone and received positive reports.

Arguments can be made that Pauly Shore just needed higher quality scripts.

If he could get back into shape I'd take him at vet minimum for at least a little while just to see if he could compete. Big MY contract though? Hell no, I doubt he'll ever get another. The only way is if he goes to some team for the minimum and somehow plays well.

hey... a team was stupid enough to take Jake after his last 2 years of "performance"...

I think he'll be playing behind Kris Jenkins next year.

You never know -- that change may be all Jake needs. In some ways, Jake was a better quarterback when he didn't have Smith there to bail him out; of course, the team was worse, but Jake was probably better for it.

I'm rooting like hell for the guy this year. I think I'll be watching Cleveland any time I can.

Apparently you never seen Bio-Dome

Or son-in-law

So either some 50 year old (as some Jets reportedly called Brunell) or some 400 lb guy. Why do I get this feeling that the 10 Jets are doomed to fail.
