Mo Lewis’ re-signing with the Jets

LB Mo Lewis, whom the Jets had previously designated as a franchise player, has re-signed with the team, accepting a one-year deal reportedly worth about $4 million.

Lewis has gone to the Pro Bowl the past two seasons.

"Today is as significant as Draft Day, because today the status of a proved Pro Bowl-level performer has been solidified on our team," Jets head coach Al Groh said. "Mo has a great appetite to win and a tremendous capacity for work. Combine those qualities with his play-making ability, and it makes me very happy to see Mo."

ProFootballWeekly.com asked Buchsbaum to go into greater detail on this subject.

Q: What is the scouting report on Lewis at this point in his career?

Buchsbaum: He declined terribly last year, but you don’t know if it’s just an off year or his age.

Q: What were the things that weren’t there last year that had been the year before?

Buchsbaum: Great, quick hand use and explosiveness.

Q: If you were to predict, do you think he can get it back?

Buchsbaum: If he works hard, yes.
