Kirwan: Maccagnan 'Starting to Be a Star'

“I like Mike and I’m proud of him, and he got an opportunity to do it his way. And I think he’s starting to be a star,” Kirwan told me. “And you know what, the Jets have needed a star at that position. I think the future of the club is going to be very exciting. I can’t wait to see his next draft to tell you the truth.”

Maccagnan, who is down here in Mobile, AL with his college scouts, also has been joined by Bowles. The former has final say on the 53-man roster while the latter is responsible for molding those pieces together.
