[Sarge4Tide]

 

1. CB Morris Claiborne
2. WR Terrelle Pryor
3. KR Andre Roberts

5. OT Brandon Shell
6. LB Brandon Copeland
7. LB Frankie Luvu
8. G Brian Winters
9. PK Jason Myers
10. TE Chris Herndon

[Gastineau Lives]

Just ten?

[Gastineau Lives]

I'm a big Herndon fan. He's going to be really good.

[varjet]

At least 5 of them are free agents this offseason.

glad to see building for the future.

can we extend a couple?

[jackhuntr]

What, no Avery Williamson??

I sort of expected him to be good

[LockeJET]

Lee was being labeled as a bust. He's not elite but he should be on this list.

[UntouchableCrew]

Interesting not to have Lee or Adams on the list. Were you expecting them to be really good?

I was very high on Adams but I'd say Lee has been the player that has most exceeded my expectations.

[Beerfish]

Pryor is the only guy i disagree with , eh has been meh mostly.  He has made a few nice catches but also had some bad times as well.

[UnitedWhofans]

Lee deserves to be on here. He has rounded into form this year

[leonwashington2]

Lee should be in the top 3 on this list. 

Adams should be on the list if only because he is playing at an all-pro level at 22 years old. no way people could've expected him to be this good

[#27TheDominator]

I am not surprised that Claiborne is playing well, but I am surprised that he is tackling people in the run game. I wonder if being labelled soft hurt him trying to get  multi-year deal this offseason.

[will]

Maye, too. He's been a heavy hitter and excellent tackler. He was great last season, but seems to me to have stepped it up a notch this year. I think he's an underrated force on the defense. Same for the NT rotation : Pennell seems to routinely upset the opponent's interior running attack. He's a nice surprise, too.

[Happy Clouds]

After seeing the Jets auditioning kickers right up to the start of the season, (Dan Bailey, Roberto Aguayo....), I never would have thought that waiver wire pickup, Jason Myers, would be having such a solid season so far.

[GreenFish]

I expected more from Pryor. 

Lee should be there. Most wanted to trade him for a bag footballs. He has played well. 

I expected #33 to be good. 

Crowell might be an honarable mention. Same with Carpenter. I thought Carpenter was going to be a disaster in our ZBS.

KR Andre Roberts

I like that you included him on your list.

 He has been more than just reliable as a punt returner, he has also had some nice explosive returns in both punts and kick offs.

[sec101row23]

The entire O line. 

[Patriot Killa]

Darron Lee - #9 MLB in league PFF

Jamal Adams - #12 S in league PFF

Morris Claiborne - #8 CB in league PFF

 

our Defensive guys are getting it done.

He always had talent, he was just always hurt.    He has been healthy and now is playing really well, like a former 1st round draft pick.

[ScarletKnight89]

Claiborne has been a beast for us. He might be Macc's best FA acquisition. It was a great decision to take a chance on him.

Pryor is very talented. I'm glad he's starting to take on a bigger role in the offense.

Ironically enough...he was the #6 pick in the draft lol.

Top 10!  Another 6th overall.

I wouldn't pat him on the back much for it, the guy has been on 2 1-year deals.  He is a UFA again this offseason. 

As for Pryor, it is nice that he is showing some life, but he only took on a bigger role because Enunwa went down. He actually played the exact same number (and a higher percentage) of offensive snaps week 2 and week 3.  People think he played more against Denver because he caught the TD, but his snap count was actually pretty low.  

[peebag]

I thought there was going to be a poll.

[edscuba]

Lee

Adams

O- line

 

[Patriot Killa]

Double post

[More Cowbell]

I don't  think Dam was so comfortable throwing tonPryir as he was to Q. Now that Q might be sidelined for a game or two, we might see more of this type of game. Might be a good waiver wire pickup if you need WR help in Fantasy 

[Larz]

Mo played very well yesterday, from run support to PD

Adams should be better than the #12 safety.

He’s the only Jets player in the “High Quality” category.. lay off him. He’s played very well aside from a few plays in coverage. 2 Forced Fumbles, 1 INT, 1 Sack and 42 tackles. 

Guy has been making plays...

I think expecting more from Pyror was the Redskins problem. He is a big bodied WR that can make some plays, but is still a QB that converted to WR and the game just doesn't come naturally to him. If you ask him to make an occasional play, he will. If you ask him to be your #1 WR you will be disappointed. 

[RutgersJetFan]

Lee and Adams have not played and/or acted like Instagram models the past month, so that's good.

All-Pro at the LOS, UDFA in coverage.

That’s one way to put it but I wouldn’t say UDFA in coverage. Coverage has gotten better. I seen him get burned twice though. I don’t like it but I think that putting his coverage under a microscope every Sunday is largely just a tactic to monitor when it’s appropriate to trash the guy because he’s made good plays in coverage as well but they rarely get brought up unless it’s in the moment and in the game thread.

Even if he left after this year, it would be for big money, so it would be a 2 year player that cost very moderate salary that netted a comp pick at the end.
