[Jets] Jets To Sign Free Agent LB Wille McGinest?

Adam Schefter posted on Thursday, after news broke that Jets linebacker Calvin Pace will miss the first four games of the 2009 season for unintentionally cheating, that the Jets might be interested in adding linebacker Willie McGinest to the roster during Pace's suspension. The only problem with this strategy is that, because McGinest is a vested veteran, he'd be entitled to receive his full salary as termination pay, if he's on the opening-day roster and if he's cut after Pace returns. So the cheaper alternative would be to carry a guy who otherwise would have been dumped before the season started, and to drop him behind Vernon Gholston on the depth chart while Pace is gone.
