FLORHAM PARK -- Stump Mitchell hasn't worked with Bilal Powell long. The running backs coach joined the Jets this offseason, and saw the versatile back take a handoff for the first time May 23.
But the long-time assistant now knows everything he needs to in order to make a sound judgement on Powell. Needless to say, he's impressed.
"Bilal is a Pro Bowl back if playing by himself," Mitchell said. "Make no doubt about it."
It's hard to argue with Mitchell, who spent the last three years as a member of the Cardinals' coaching staff.
