Keidel: We Thought Sanchez Was Something, But It Turns Out He Was Nothing
Great quarterbacks make something out of nothing. And we thought Sanchez was really something, but it turns out he was really nothing.

Great quarterbacks make something out of nothing. And we thought Sanchez was really something, but it turns out he was really nothing.
The Jets head coach delivered quote after quote on Tuesday, sounding as confident as ever after finishing last season with a surprising 8-8 record.
The Jets will get slots 139, 209, 210 and 213: a fourth-rounder and three sixth-rounders. They lost free agents Dustin Keller, Matt Slauson, Yeremiah Bell, Mike DeVito, Shonn Greene and LaRon Landry.
Like Smith before him, Boomer once called signals for Gang Green and when he did so, he too wore the No. 7 - see where this is going?
On the heels of Mark Sanchez's farewell, Craig declared the now-former Jets QB to be one of the best to ever lace 'em up for Gang Green -- discuss amongst yourselves.
Well, that didn't take long. Three days after being released by the Jets, Mark Sanchez appears to be on the verge of finding a new home.
The Jets have their eyes on a good veteran running back, but will almost certainly have to outsmart two division rivals to get him. The Jets are reportedly currently one of four teams to be interested in free agent Maurice Jones-Drew.
For all his semantic subterfuge, foibles, and faux pas, Woody Johnson was a breath of fresh, honest air on Sunday.
In a perfect world, the Jets would be equipping Geno Smith -- and only Geno Smith -- for the 2014 season. Only they aren't, and I can't say I blame them. But their plan at quarterback will end up being a wise decision.
Speaking at the NFL meetings Sunday, Jets owner Woody Johnson said "we're looking at a number of players, including DeSean."
The New York Jets have released quarterback Mark Sanchez, as expected. But wait, there's more!
The Jets' decision Friday evening to cut quarterback Mark Sanchez and sign Michael Vick marked the end of an era for fans.
Greg McElroy has retired at the tender age of 25. The former Jets quarterback announced his retirement on his Twitter account on Friday morning.
In other words, the free-agent QB won't be immediately typecast as a backup. But he shouldn't expect to be handed the starting job, either.
A little over a month since Sam announced his desire to become the first openly gay NFL player, he lifted 225 pounds 19 times, ran the 40-yard dash in an unofficial time of 4.69 seconds and jumped 30 inches.
Jets GM John Idzik needs to make a signing here. He should do it because, quite honestly, Geno Smith is not the answer at quarterback.
Their fans want DeSean Jackson in the worst way. The Jets? We'll see. New York is reportedly one of several teams that have contacted the Philadelphia Eagles about the talented-yet-volatile wide receiver.
New York Jets general manager John Idzik says the team is taking a "judicious and selective" approach in free agency, but adds that he thinks "we've been productive."
It's pretty obvious that the Jets desperately need a starting cornerback, but what's just as apparent is they never really wanted Antonio Cromartie to return.
For a team that has done way too much losing over the last few years, Gang Green has little to lose by giving Vick a shot. And maybe, just maybe, the Jets can say they actually did something during free agency.
Craig has made it crystal clear that he wants the Jets to sign free-agent quarterback Michael Vick, while Boomer isn't so sure that it will necessarily be a match made in heaven.
A week ago the right side of the Jets' offensive line was in disarray. But that's not the case anymore.
The four-time Pro Bowler, who spent the past five seasons with the Eagles, only played in seven games in an injury-plagued 2013.
The Jets could use a headline-grabbing move, and the Eagles are reportedly fielding calls on three-time Pro Bowler DeSean Jackson. Sound like a fit to you?
At this point, with little left on the open market, Jets GM John Idzik looks like a hitchhiker on a lonely road; his thumb out, looking for a ride.
