    I really like the idea of re-grading drafts, will you be doing more of those?

    Hey,

    You probably don't take requests but I just wanted to say that I would love to read a story from you about the impact (a healthy) Greg Jennings could have on the Dolphins offense. There has been hints of this deal for a long time and in an interview with dolphins.com yesterday he certainly seems very open to the idea of returning to play for Joe.

    Lots of writers around here and other sites speculate about Jennings, Wallace etc coming to Miami but you provide great analysis in your articles so I would love to see your view on what Jennings could do for us, as it looks more and more likely that he will become our lead receiver next season.

    Thanks!

    Hi Eric,

    I think you need to differentiate between what is best for the Jets as a team and what is best for Tim Tebow as an individual.

    I think there are Tim Tebow fans who only care about Tim Tebow.

    I can think of several scenarios where his success in the red zone could actually be very detrimental to the team.

    And . . . not just Mark Sanchez.

    What offensive unit does not want to cap things off with a touchdown ???

    Pulling them for Tim Tebow and the wildcat offense in the red zone is going to create that all work and no reward feeling.

    In my opinion . . . Mark Sanchez and HIS offense should be allowed to finalize their drive and punch it in.

    Believe me, if the crowd starts chanting Tebow-Tebow . . . and Sanchez is robbed of the opportunity, I think this team is headed for big trouble.

    Anyway . . .

    I hope you enjoyed your time off.

    Erik, you must be moving on up! I saw your Gostkowski article on ESPN Boston. Congrats, that's quite the achievement.
