He's a douchebag, but great player.

They also said that this guy can be next:

# Chris Kemoeatu
# #68
# Guard
# Pittsburgh Steelers

If so...makes dropping B. Moore a thing of the past and a nice QUICK start to FA...

And I would trust signing Kemoeatu because Ryan saw him at least twice a year (3 times last season) and as a D coordinator, he'd know which offensive linemen gave his defense to most trouble.

They could be raiding the Ravens defense. Jets reportedly interested in Jim Leonhard as well.

Good signing. I was hoping the Giants would take a look, but for Scott the Jets made too much sense not to sign there.

Bay Ridge Dave · 02-27-2009, 10:15 AM

Now Joe B is saying that it is a rumor, but that Scott IS visiting with the Jets today. Corey Ivy is visiting as well...

I actually have an interest in seeing if another FA raven CB is Healthy OVER IVEY.....in Chris Mccalister ..if he is...that would be TWO LOCK DOWN CB's with Revis .. Leonhard would be ok too..

I just wonder what WR they are gonna target..

Scott giving the Ravens one last chance to match the Jets offer:

[Bart Scott reportedly is going to give the Ravens a chance to match the Jets' five-year, $40 million contract offer.

In an effort to break the story, many national sources said the deal was officially agreed to. But it was never signed and it now appears Scott is having second thoughts and wants to give Baltimore another shot. We don't see why Baltimore wouldn't match now, but it's no lock. We'll find out shortly. Feb. 27 - 2:57 pm et

It's official. Scott a Jet.

New York Jets agree to deal with former Baltimore Raven Bart Scott - ESPN

Quote:

Linebacker Bart Scott and the New York Jets agreed to a six-year deal worth $48 million on Friday, according to Scott's agent Harold Lewis.

Earlier in the day the Jets offered a five-year, $40 million deal. When New York upped the offer by a year, Scott chose the Jets over Baltimore.

Scott arrived at the Jets facility early Friday morning to meet with his former Ravens defensive coordinator, Rex Ryan, who is now the head coach of the team.

Scott has played seven seasons with Baltimore amassing 433 tackles and 16 sacks in his career. His best season was in 2006 when he made the Pro Bowl and the All-Pro team. In that season, he had 103 tackles and 9½ sacks.
