WitP: Brashton and the Jets

Island Sports Media reports that Brashton Satele will have a tryout with the New York Jets.

It was originally reported by the Honolulu Advertiser that Brashton Satele signed with the Raiders. Island Sports Media just spoke to Brashton, who informed us that he is now going to be leaving on Thursday for a tryout with the New York Jets instead of the Raiders. The Jets seems to be a better situation for him.

UPDATE (4/28/10): Stephen Tsai has an article about it.

Satele probably faces a more favorable situation with the Jets than the Raiders. Mike Smith, who was a graduate assistant helping with the Warrior linebackers in 2009, is now an assistant with the Jets.

The Jets did not select a linebacker in the past week's draft. A few days ago, they announced that Vernon Gholston, a former No. 1 pick, would move from outside linebacker to defensive end.
