Of course Zach Wilson but I'm curious about Nasrildeen, Yeboah, Isiah Dunn, and Hamilcar Rashed. All UDFA but guys that the Jets needed for a long time.

Same here, all of them. If the majority are contributors then it will be an affirmation of JD/staff's ability to identify players plus Saleh's ability to put them in a position to succeed. I feel as though that necessary equation has been missing for quite a while, mostly because the coaches and GMs seemingly have never been on the same page.

Vera-Tucker is critical. He was costly and needs to be more than just servicable

If Moore and Carter start and produce that will go a long way to allowing high picks next year for more OL and DB's

I'm also hoping to see that Wilson kid beat out Mike White for the starting QB job

I’m not concerned about Tucker at all as he will be one of the top guards in the league in two to three years. I’d bet on that. Wilson, Moore and Both Carter’s will be starters and or big contributors as well. Where it will get interesting is the OLBs and CBs in bottom half of draft and three or four UDFAs. If Douglas hits on at least half of them it will be big. When I say half, I mean perhaps one of the OLBs pushes for starting time and the rest are either Teams contributors or provide solid depth at TE or OG (Hoge).

Yeah because I don't know what page Maccagnan was on. Devin Smith and Hackenberg did him in. Oh and always drafting defensive tackles didn't help also.

Shorts and no pads practices don't really lend themselves to the trench guys.

If he doesn't beat him out we are in trouble.

There will be guys that step into starting roles immediately, but you're right the guys you hit on in later rounds and UDFAs are the roster builders for future seasons and at reasonable prices. The DBs and OLB hybrids will be interesting to track.

Yes, the Jets seem to put a high priority on those hybrids and DB. Dunn and Sherwood have been impressive so far. Just read today how Sherwood absorbed the playbook already. Dunn has been a standout from the beginning. Saw some film breakdown of his coverage skills and it's a head shaker why he went undrafted.
