We're past the midpoint of training camp, a good time to recognize the good and bad. (Saturday night's game not included):
- Best player in camp: Lawson. It's not even close. He's in the backfield so often he should qualify for residential parking.
- Best rookie: Wide receiver Elijah Moore. He's just different.
- Best player no one is talking about: Running back La'Mical Perine. Everybody forgot about him when they signed Tevin Coleman and drafted Michael Carter, but Perine has been the team's most physical runner.
- Most improved: Defensive end Bryce Huff. The scheme suits him, and there's a good chance he will be used on passing downs.
- Most disappointing: Tight end Chris Herndon. Everybody keeps asking, "When?" It hasn't happened for Herndon, who seems lost in the new offense. His job would be in jeopardy if the rest of the tight ends weren't so mediocre.
- The Mike Maccagnan pick who should be most worried about his job: Tackle Chuma Edoga.
- The Joe Douglas pick who should be most worried: Defensive end Jabari Zuniga. The Jets probably will find a way to keep the 2020 third-round pick, but the scholarship is running out.
- Biggest question mark: Wide receiver Denzel Mims. The talent is there -- some encouraging moments in recent days -- but where does he fit?
