    In a mild surprise, and perhaps as a bit of insurance, the Jets have re-signed veteran tight end Bubba Franks, according to a person with knowledge of the signing. He spoke on condition of anonymity because the Jets haven't announced the move. Franks, a 10th-year pro, played last season with the Jets after spending his first eight seasons with the Packers.

    why wouldn't they just bring in an UDFA or get some young guy with at least 'some' potential after teams start cutting guys. what does franks offer anyone at this point?

    I think it is a good move considering that he and Dustin Keller are the only non UDFA rookie TE's on the Jets roster
