We also just added former Gators, Jabari Zuniga and La’Mical Perine to the team. @JiF should be stoked. Douglas was serious when he mentioned building the mist cohesive team in sports. That starts with pairing of friends and former teammates. Our secondary plus Gregg Williams has the potential to make us the best D in the afc east now. Desir, Austin, Poole, Maulet, Hall, Adams, Maye, Davis, Wilson, Jackson, and Hairston hive give us fabulous depth and surprising young talent on the back end. We haven't had a secondary with this kind of depth since the Rex Ryan years. We now have speed, height and physicality in our db core. Better coverage equals more sacks also. Pretty excited about this group for the first time in a long time. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdels62 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Not a fixed secondary at all. It’s a lot of names with a lot to prove. We have depth and we don’t have a Trumaine Johnson shaped hole anymore so that’s good. There’s upside here but there is a lot to prove. i think our depth chart ends up LCB- Desir, Hall, Maulet RCB- Austin, Hairston, L Jackson NCB - Poole, Maulet, Guidry FS - Maye, Davis, B Jackson SS- Adams, Farley That’s not a great secondary but it’s better than last year.

Jetster Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Competition will push the cream to the top for GW. I don't think I've ever seen the Jets have this many athletes vying for 2 CB spots. Poole is a lock, Bless was freaking impressive for a guy missing his senior season & playing in the NFL with zero camp? I think GW benched him because he was spent mentally & physically. Jets CBs were on a freaking Island last year with no pass rush unless we blitzed. Even when we blitzed we were very inconsistent in our pass rush. Depth allows you rotate guys, play match up, and with the addition of Davis you'll have occasions where only 1 of who you consider THE BEST CB in that group on the field. Our LB core is TREMENDOUS! When you consider that Avery Williamson is expendable you've got a really good LB group. The return of Mosely, one of the best interior Dlines in the NFL vs the run, QW in his 2nd year with GW screaming in his ear, Adams, Maye, if JD can somehow add Clowney or Griffin, this defense ATHLETICALLY is way better than 2009-2010 Rex years outside of Revis. Way faster at every other position. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesr Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 A lot of comments about Clowney in this thread ... worth noting that FA signings are approaching the date where they no longer count against the comp pick formula (some time early May).

Thankfully Douglas didn't think that way and brought in a ton of new secondary talent. After so many wretched long term and expensive CB contracts its nice to see a bunch of young and cheap talent for Gregg Williams to pick from 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great work by JD. Jets starting receiving unit...along with TE Herndon...and Bell's elite receiving skills...can do serious damage. Pass rush. If healthy Zuniga can be a big contributor. Jenkins solid for his usual 7-8. If this guy can have a breakout season...he can make it formidable. And Jets could compete for the wide open AFCE.

Funny you feel this way. I feel the opposite. I like Austin, but he played okay for a few games against generally atrocious competition. 3/4 of the board is already anointing him as a plus starter. I think the Ravens were the only team with an offense he played against. He had the blown coverage against the Steelers before the half and never saw the field again. He has potential, but IMO he has as much to prove as anybody else out there. On 4/26/2020 at 4:42 PM, flgreen said: Not sure Williams feels that way. Bless was benched the last two games.

Having Rhodes and Ya-Sin as your starters sets you up pretty well I think. I guess they feel they have enough depth and didn't want to pay him the $1.25 million this year.

PepPep Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Poole, Bless and Desir are the best CBs the Jets have right now. Hall does not have the speed or athleticism that Bless has nor does he have the vet savvy or positional skills of Desir. I think you can pretty much pencil those two at CB 1 and CB 2. Poole has the Nickel spot locked down. Maulet has shown enough to have the edge in holding down the #4 Dime spot. I really like Hall but and I think he will make the roster. Q.Wilson is a wild card. If healthy he has a great shot to take the last CB spot on the roster. This means Hairston would get cut and so would K.Brown. I like Guidry, he's a fantastic athlete and really fast but his size will hold him back, regardless of where he plays. That's why he was not drafted. He is probably a PS candidate. L.Jackson is a big, athletic CB with a ton of upside but he's also a major project. Also a PS candidate IMO. As far as safeties, barring a trade, Maye and Adams will be starting and Davis will get a lot of reps in different packages. I would imagine they keep 1 more safety on the roster and I have no idea who that would be. Farley? Jackson? Maybe they move one of the CBs to safety? K.Brown or L.Jackson?

This time last year we heard “Tru is back with Greg Williams so he’ll be better.” At this point of the year there’s optimism but with our CBs there should be a lot of skepticism. It’s a young group that has proven inconsistent (Poole and Desir) or has accomplished nothing at the pro level. If Desir and Poole have good years the rest will fall into place but I’m not counting on it, I am hoping for it tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
