nah.

They have too much invested in Pennington right now.

They need defensive help and a heir-apparent for Curtis Martin

I would agree, but you you can't escape :
1. Pennington is now coming off 2 consecutive seasons with Rotator Cuff injuries -- no matter how much the team has invested in him
2. Never underestimate the stupidity of the NY Jets on Draft Day.

I agree with the Rnd 4-5 assessment, but I can see NY drafting him as an insurance policy at that point. They could get him on the cheap (little to no Bonus, lg minimum).

That said, it will all come down to the combine. If he explodes with a fast 40, and passes the ball effectively in the QB drills -- he could easily play himself into the first day.

Now that he is definately going pr, I think the "behavior" problems will cease between now and draft day. Something tells me Big Brother Ron Mexico is going to tell marcus the facts of life and reign him in until he at least has a contract somewhere.
