I agree, but if you would then sign a camp cut, at what position would it be? -
I'm not sure that the Jets have the cap space to be able to sign another FA, but if they do, I think a strong case can be made for only 4 positions: IOL, WR, S, and DT. I think the Jets depth on the IOL is pretty bad. Wes Schweitzer used to be a good IOL, but I think his skills have diminished with age. He's only 30, and that's not old for OL, but still I'd rather he be the Jets second in line in terms of depth, rather than first. After him, it's really iffy between Jake Hanson, Xavier Newman and Chris Glaser. Statistically, McGovern was one of the worst Cs in the NFL last year, and he's better at C than OG, so I don't want him back, but I think the Jets need to add someone. I truly think that JD screwed up not taking an IOL in the 4th or 5th round. There were still some good prospects. WR is the position which I think has the second-biggest need. G, Wilson is a weapon. M. Williams will help, but will he be ready to start the season? Even if he is, how effective will he be coming off of a torn ACL? Malachi Corley is a great prospect, but he still will be a rookie and he fell to the 3rd round for a reason. S is the #3 position in terms of need. Adams was pretty good last season and if Chuck Clark is healthy and doesn't have a lot of rust, the S position could be fine, but it's iffy with Clark. The depth is Ashtyn Davis, who was good last year, but after him is a big question mark. At present, there's only Jarrick Bernard-Converse (JBC), who missed most of last season and was only a 6th round draft pick, and a conversion from CB. The Jets added Jaylen Key, with the Mr. Irrelevant pick who will compete for a spot. They also Qwan'tez Stiggers, but he may stay at CB or they may try him at S. After that there are several UDFA Safeties or Safety conversions from CB. Maybe Stiggers or Key make the team, but even though I liked JBC as a prospect, and like Stiggers potential, I'd feel better with a solid vet at S. DT is the #4 position in terms of need simply because of its importance and the fact that the Jets are counting on a couple of FAs who aren't that good. Kinlaw could be a great signing, but last year could have just been a career year, and he could revert to his previous level of play. Leki Fotu may not even make the team. I'd feel a lot beter if Al Woods was back and healthy and if Quinton Jefferson were back. I don't know if there's even a decent NT still out there in FA. Thankfully, Whitecotton has done a great job with developing the Jets' DL, so hopefully he can get more out of Kinlaw and maybe Fotu. Also, with a better OL, Rodgers should be able to stay healthy, the Jets rushing attack should be better with the additions of Allen and Davis, and as a result, hopefully they'll have a lead more often and it will force opponents to have to throw the ball more and run the ball a lot less. In theory, that should make the need at NT less.

I was a fan of drafting Moore. Didn’t see the attitude issues coming. In fact the aura around him was the opposite when we drafted him. Corley seems like a guy that just has to be used right to succeed. Likely never a #1, but he doesn’t have to be with GW here and young. But he’s a tax guy and let him work. Luckily for us Todgers does like getting rid of the ball fast. And we have size at WR in MW and Lazard. Something WKU didn’t really. As guys to block for Corley. You watch Corley’s full video of his touches last year and you see a good amount of screens that go nowhere. But not really bc of him. But bc of a bad throw or no blocking.
