So how will the Jets be affected if Woody Johnson heads to the United Kingdom as U.S. ambassador? Probably not much at all; it's not as if he's a day-to-day fixture at the team facility. He'd be consulted on big decisions, but his brother, Christopher Johnson, would handle the day-to-day stuff as the new chairman/CEO. He's a minority owner and passionate about the team, people tell me. I've spoken to him a couple of times. He's personable, engaging and a good listener.

The Saints have now signed all of their draft picks after inking a four-year deal with OT Ryan Ramczyk, whom they picked 32nd overall in Round 1 out of Wisconsin. Ramczyk has been limited this summer because of hip surgery, but he is expected to be full speed in training camp. The Saints' original plan for Ramczyk was to move him to right tackle. But he could emerge as a candidate to replace starting LT Terron Armstead, who is expected to miss 4-6 months with a shoulder injury.
