We all know or can agree that the Jets have significantly improved from last year (actually the past couple of years). That’s in the roster, coaches and front office. Let’s focus on the roster with this topic or thread. It doesn’t matter who mainly put this roster together at this point and we all know it was Mac. Mac did sign some excellent free agents, traded for all-pro oline men Osemele and at least drafted three quality players in Williams, Polite and Wesco, and possibly another good player in the rookie oline men. Sleeper pick might be the rookie CB if he can ever get healthy.
With all that said Mac did drop the ball at the CB position, IMO and I’m sure other fans feel he dropped the ball at other positions. Perfect scenario for me is whatever position he dropped the ball, that the younger players step up and become stars filling the gaps of what the team needs. The Jets have 2-3 young CBs that it appears they will get significant playing time this year. They have to, who else are the Jets going to play at that position? With that said, if at least two of the those corners can become the starters we need to solidify the defense and that will help this team become true contenders.
I believe the Jets have a rosters to contend for a playoff spot this year. Whether or not they can win the division, I doubt that but a wild-card spot I can see that. Problem is there are a few positions that are weak links for this team. IMO, it’s the CB position and depth at pretty much every position except the dline and LB spot (mainly). Others may feel differently obviously but overall, where ever there lacking if the younger players can step up and fill those gaps this team will be set for success for quite some time. This eliminates trading for players and giving away draft picks or other players.
