JetNation Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 By Glenn Naughton While rumors regarding the future of the Jets quarterback position, Gang Green continues to make moves elsewhere. NFL Insider Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Jets have come to terms with former Bears and Redskins defensive lineman Jarvis Jenkins. DL Jarvis Jenkins to the #Jets on a 3-year deal, source said. Low-cost signing at just $2M per year — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 11, 2016 The 6′ 4” 309 Jenkins was a second round pick of the Redskins in 2011 where he played his first three pro seasons before playing last year with the Redskins. In 59 pro games (48 starts), Jenkins has logged 63 tackles, 6 sacks. The addition of Jenkins could mean the end of the line for Jets free agent Leger Douzable. Click here to read the full story...

Gas2No99 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I posted this in another thread regarding the departure of Snacks: "The type of defense WE RAN was more than surfeit at NG with the likes of: Ernie Logan, Jason Ferguson, Kris Jenkins, Sione Pouha, and UDFA Snacks. Simon will be just as effective. The type of defense Bowles prefers to run will probably rely LESS on a 2 gap monster run stuffer/lane clogger and more partial to a Speed-based Penetrating Attack DT. JMHO. You don't pay NGs $9.25M in annual salary. Mo is worth more than Snacks, but like Fitzy, Mo is NOT WORTH how much his agent keeps whispering into his ear. " Jenkins was highly touted out of Clemson and lost his rookie year to a severe knee injury, IIRC. He seems more of a penetrating DL than run clogger, but this tweet from Rapport per Rotoworld seems to indicate we might be moving towards more athletic DLman. Jets signed DE Jarvis Jenkins to a three-year, $6 million contract. Turning 28 in April, Jenkins was the 41st overall pick in the 2011 draft. He's fallen well short of expectations associated with that selection, however, managing six sacks across 59 career games (48 starts), and in 2015 grading out 53rd among 57 qualified 3-4 defensive ends in PFF's ratings, routinely getting swallowed up versus the run. Jenkins is mere depth for Gang Green. Related: Bears Source: Ian Rapoport on Twitter It's a good economic depth signing with possible upside.

Since reporting the signing, Rapoport has since backtracked after this tweet by Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News. It appears Jenkins is still a possibility, but not a done deal. Bears free-agent DL Jarvis Jenkins has told friends that he's working out a deal with the Jets, per sources.

If we can go from Harrison down to Jenkins without impacting our ability to stop the run why could we have not dropped down even further and sign a UDFA or something? Wouldn't even more money be saved in that case and at no loss of efficacy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't even more money be saved in that case and at no loss of efficacy? I think they probably could have. The D line is still stacked...put a big body in the middle and they'll be fine. even if they do drop a bit - Being the best run stopping team in the league clearly hasn't helped us all that much.

I understand the 2nd part of the statement above but I think you underestimate just how good Harrison was for us in that role. The marketplace is the ultimate decider of these things and the market valued Harrison significantly more than Jenkins. In any event, I agree that we are indeed stacked, albeit a bit lighter than we were before and that we are better positioned to absorb his loss than another team might be.
