Favre easy. He won and played outdoors in the cold, rain, snow, etc.. Manning is a dome QB

yes but you will pay more for them and have to draft earlier to get them. LeFevour is the best choice that won't cause you to have to overpay.

Tebow is not an NFL QB - he's a passing fullback

Bradford is injury prone

McCoy is great but he will demand huge money

Dan LeFevour would be your best bet. He is a proven winner and won't come with a huge price tag like Bradford. you could pick him up in the 3rd round.

I am not sold on Bradford, McCoy or Tebow at the next level. LeFevour has the "it" factor - he just wins.

LeFevour led CMU to a bowl victory in the 2006 Motor City Bowl. He was named the bowl game's MVP, winning as a redshirt freshman. Dan was one of 35 players named to the Manning Award Watch List in August 2007.[2] He was named Mid-American Conference West Division Player of the Week for two consecutive weeks in October 2007,[3] and again in the second week of November.[4] Lefevour also garnered USA Today's Player of the Week for the week of October 16, 2007.[5] On December 1, 2007 LeFevour became the second player in Division I FBS history to pass for over 3,000 yards and rush for over 1,000 yards in a single season (Vince Young was the first). On September 12, 2009 at Michigan State, LeFevour passed Byron Leftwich to take over as the MAC all-time leader in total offense in a career. He currently holds Mid American Conference records for career completions, attempts, passing yards, passing touchdowns, total touchdowns, and total offensive yards. LeFevour is the only player in NCAA history with over 12,000 passing yards and 2,500 rushing yards and currently sits 2nd all time in total offensive yards. He also holds the FBS record for total touchdowns with 150.

Easy to do when you inherit an offense that just needs a QB and a defense that has Darelle Revis and company. Mangini cut 24 players, all but two of whom are out of the league.

Go back to Gate D.

Earl, read your quote above. You said all we needed was a QB.

All I said was a rookie QB? Sanchez is a rookie QB and Ryan has done a great job with him.

What about the players Mangini took from the Jets to the Browns? dumb

a rookie QB? please.

Results count. That is where the Jets are superior and the browns fall short.

Mangini had three years. Ryan took over and is in the AFC Big Game

He is a funny guy who lives off his NE accomplishments.

Mangini will lead the Browns to the AFC Championship in two years. You watch.

we'll be watching and thanking our lucky stars that we have Rex instead of Mangini..

he has already usurped anything that Mangini has done with the Jets..

The Browns need to get some guts and draft a QB who has talent. re-treads are not the answer

when Mangini leads the browns to the AFC Championship game like Rex has done with the Jets with the same record let me know ok?

mangini has been lost since he departed from team Billichick.

Rex Ryan made Eric look stupid. The Jet are one win away from the Super Bowl..

IF, IF, IF. please stop crying about the JETS.

you have your team, be proud! you won 5 games.

you should be happy to have mangini. He was fired and Rex came in to take them deep into the post-season.

Mangini is good ok- he won 5 games I believe you!

Are the Jets morons for firing Mangini or geniuses for hiring Rex Ryan?

Braylon Edwards is happy and playing in the AFC Champ Game - but you hate him because he succedded.

Everyone concurs that Rex Ryan runs circles around Mangini. even Billichick must be laughing at his old buddy Eric the great!

because manigni was banging the owner's wife: something ryan couldn't do because he hasn't seen his wiener in decades.

oh boy. a 6th grader responds.

why was mangini fired from the jets? can you answer that?

why did they replace him with rex ryan?

so why was mangini fired? for no reason? because Brett Favre?

They fire mangini and Ryan takes them where mangini couldn't.

he was fired!

some people win some people lose. Rex is one win away from the super bowl. Mangini won 5 games.

Rex Ryan built the #1 defense in the NFL this year. Rex Ryan drafted Sanchez and Green -both rookies who have performed well.

If you are happy with Mangini good for you. He won't win. The Jets players and fans hated him.

Rex Ryan did this with a rookie QB who only passed for 100 yds yesterday. Mangini had Favre who BTW is playing in the NFC Champ game this weekend.

Ryan did a whole lot more with a whole lot less.

There is now way Mangini would have taken the Jets this far. No freakin' way

what an eye opener. He did what Mangini couldn't do.

one thing fans don't realize is Braylon helps open the run game for the jets. it's not all about catches especially with a rookie QB
