Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Garrard had an impressive workout Thursday with the Jets, who believe he would fit well in their system. There are questions about his age and injury history, but the Jets and the 35-year-old Garrard plan to continue talking and working to consummate an agreement. The Jets are expected to bring in competition for Mark Sanchez, who struggled badly in 2012. In addition to Sanchez, the Jets have quarterbacks Tim Tebow, Greg McElroy and Matt Simms on the roster. Tebow is expected to be released.
