Regardless of who the new GM is, the Jets need to rebuild from the ground up. Provided that smart moves are made, it's probably going to take at least 2 seasons to do so. That said, here are the guys, in my opinion, who are not expendable:

Mangold
Landry
Willkerson
Ferguson
(Maybe Braylon Edwards, if he decides to resign with the team for less money).

Beyond them, everyone else can be replaced, in my estimation. Also, and I know people will disagree with me, I say trade Revis away for a #1 draft pick and get the QB you want. He's a great CB, but I saw him get burned a few times over the past three seasons. He's lucky that Randy Moss is no longer playing, because Moss would burn Revis' ass almost everytime they were matched up.

Some people might say Cromartie is a guy to build around, but his play is so inconsistent that it makes me wonder if he's worth the money that he's getting.

The new GM will has his hands full trying to get David Harris and Bart Scott off the team's books, not to mention Holmes, Sanchez, Tebow, Pace, Shonn Green and Sione Pouha (why that dude is making nearly $5 million shows the depth of Tannenbaum's judgement on contract signings) all need to go as well to give the team money to actually sign some good players.

By the way, if we're going to sign Alex Smith or Ryan Fitzpatrick, then I say we might as well keep Sanchez. I would say sign Michael Vick.

lol. Revis, Cro are expendable to you? OK.

Coples and Revis. The sack leader from last year and the best CB of all time. I would build around those guys. And Vlad. Mostly the other guys though lol.

Braylon? Always expendable. He plays when he is desperate. I'd keep him on the cheap next year. He is desperate now.

[SenorGato]

NFL caliber players under contract for 2013:

Revis
Cromartie
Wilkerson
Mangold
D'Brick
Pouha
Harris
Wilson
Holmes
Kerley
Powell
McKnight
Coples
Punter Guy
Davis

Then Howard, Slauson, Moore, And Mauga aren't major threats to leave.

This roster has talent, and if New GMs first plan is to burn it down then he New GM should not be the new GM.

[CrazyCarl40]

So much of this is wrong, misinformed, and terrible. Come on, Jets fans, we're better than this aren't we?

[73andMe]

Agree pretty much with SenorGato! Current Jets'roster still has a lot to work with, not counting what we might luck out with in the draft!

[stoicsentry]

I would flip Revis for 2 first round picks in a heartbeat (2013 1st and a 2014 1st). Or maybe even a 2 and a 1 (preferably the 1st is a 2014).

That way we can use our 2 first round picks this year to build up the team, and the 2 first round picks next year to navigate ourselves into position to draft the top QB.

[JetsFanInDenver]

I am not sure if Mangold has any upside left. He was pretty ordinary this season. Maybe he just gave up!

I am excited about Wilk and Coples. Ellis looks like he can make an impact if he stays healthy. Cro might he here for another season.

Kerley looked awesome. Powell was decent.

Revis will be gone.

You forgot DBrickashaw. That makes 20 by my count (if we retain the RFA you listed)

Our on the cusp of being NFL-caliber, players (read: backups still under contract):
McIntyre
Ricky Sapp
Lankster
Rueland
Hill
Ducasse
Schlauderoff
McElroy

That makes 28. 29 if you wanna count Sanchez

[Chadcurtis]

Do the Jets have a full allotment of draft choices this year or did Mister T manage to deal them all before he left?

[JFtoLong]

Biggest problem we have is a complete lack of playmakers on either side if the ball.

The NFL today is a playmakers league. And we suck in that dept.

I don't see a lack of playmakers here. Revis and Holmes, Landry, Wilkerson, and McKnight on specials can all get the job done and Hill has flashed as has kerley. The biggest problem is the middle of our roster. We don't have one. As westhoff stated, you can't throw the whole cap to a handful of players...what are you going to pay the rest? The best teams stay relevant when a few starters go down because they have good role players and solid depth. Looking at thebOline and WR corps in particular, there has Ben nothing to shore up those positions leaving the slausons and Howard's and Clyde gates of the world to pick up the slack.

[jgb]

Best way to rebuild is through the line. If i was an nfl gm my mission statement would be top 5 d and o lines each year. Makes many other positions plug and play. But hey what do i know

Revis is our best playmaker, and he's a corner, that is not good.

Holmes? Blah

McKnight? Playmaker? Really?

Hill needs to learn how to run routes and catch to be taken seriously.


We have nobody who really scares the opposition, you can throw to the other side if Revis, he does not keep OCs up at night.

Wilkerson may be that type of player, we will see.

We have no QB, no Wr's, no game breaking Rb. No TE threat, no real pass rushing OLB.

We really have no playmakers.
