I'm in my early 30s and have been a fan since 1996, so this list will only include jets I've personally seen play. This is a tough one to answer ..
OFFENSIVE: Curtis Martin
DEFENSIVE: Revis (honorable mention- Sean Ellis was a close runner up).
SPECIAL TEAMS: Brad Smith
COACH: this one is a no contest - Sexy Rexy

Offensive Jet of all time: Curtis Martin wasn't flashy and had respect for the game.
Defensive Jet of all time: Gastineau because he was a game changer.
Special Teams Jet of all time Leon Washington because he could break it any time.
Coach Jet of all time: Parcells changed the culture

Offense- I can't pick 1 so... Walker and Toon Who doesn't remember the 51-45 game? Wesley Walker 4 td's. link Below
Defense- Again, can't pick 1 so... The Sack Exchange
Special Teams- as I can't think of any other standouts right this second, I'll again pick 2 and go with the 2 that everyone else has Brad smith or Leon
Coach- This one is easy and I only need 1, Parcells. of course belichick would be a close second for the 30 seconds that he coached. And yes, I'm joking on cheaterchick because I can't stand the guy. Rex would be second but a distant second and then maybe Mangini cause he put the screws to cheaterchick. Ha

It's really tough to pick one player for each but here are my pictures:
Offensive Jet of all time: Matt Snell ( carried the Jets to their Superbowl victory. Only Jet to ever score a Superbowl TD.) Hard to pass on Wesley Walker though, by far my favorite WR.
Defensive Jet of all time Joe Klecko Heart of the NY Sack Exchange (Mo Lewis would have been here but he gave Brady the opportunity to play so he's out !!!! )
Special Teams Jet of all time Pat Leahy (Leon Washington is a close second but his time was unfortunately cut short)
Coach Jet of all time Weeb Ewbank obviously has the Superbowl win so he goes first. (Walt Michaels is second and in my opinion was fired prematurely to promote Walton. Had he stayed on we would likely have more than one Lombardi trophy and he would be my first choice.)
Leaving out some players I really loved as Jets.

Offensive Jet of all time: _____ Lee Grosscup - he was my next door neighbor. Oh, OK, Don Maynard
Defensive Jet of all time _____ Larry Grantham - the toughest little SOB you could imagine, but Joe Klecko is a close second
Special Teams Jet of all time _____ Leon Washington
Coach Jet of all time _____ Weeb Eubank - come ON!!! What other coach led the Jets to a Super Bowl?
Why? Because I say so.
