The New York Jets began organized team activities this week, which included its fair share of interesting news.<\/p>\n

The Quarterback Competition<\/strong><\/h3>\n

From NY Jets.com<\/a>: “You don’t make that prior to training camp \u2014 you haven’t played in any games,” head coach Todd Bowles said of how the process of deciding on the starter for Game 1 at Buffalo on Sept. 10 will play out. “We’re in shorts and T-shirts. I<\/i>\u00a0can compete right now. Just throwing the ball around, you’re not hitting the quarterback, that’s pretty easy.”<\/p>\n

In my opinion, OTAs don’t really mean much in terms of competition, but if Hackenberg or Petty want to beat out McCown for the starting gig, they needed to show at least SOMETHING this week.<\/p>\n

Prediction<\/strong>: McCown starts week 1; Hackenberg takes over week 5 @ CLE<\/p>\n

Rookie Contracts<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Most of our rookies are now under contract, with the exception of 1st round pick, Jamal Adams. All the deals are the standard 4 year rookie contracts.<\/p>\n
