RESNewYork Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Any posters able to show how Bryce Huff fits in the new Jets defensive scheme. Is Bryce a better fit in the new scheme compared to Greg William's scheme. 6'3 255, had 2 sacks in I assume limited actions. Is he a potential Shaq Barrett was also an UDFA. https://www.nfl.com/prospects/bryce-huff/32194855-4609-0844-68b1-6617441eaa57 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 He's no Shaq Barrett in any scheme but he was decent. I trust Robert Saleh to make the final decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think Saleh will look for someone in the draft and/or a vet he is more familiar with to pluck out of FA- Blair or Dee Ford come to mind.

Popular Post KRL Posted February 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2021 Huff has a decent frame to be a 4-3 DE (6-3 255) and he showed his versatility last year when he played OLB. He was a UDFA with no off-season program and no pre-season games yet he was able to play 14 games and get 2 Sacks and 4 TFL. He won't be promised anything but I would expect him to get a legitimate shot at the DE spot. The fact that Douglas and his staff signed him works in his favor https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/4039375/bryce-huff 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Douglas and his staff signed him works in his favor https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/4039375/bryce-huff I would agree except for how crowded the D-line is. Even if we assume the Jets cut Anderson, you would imagine they do everything they can to bring back JFM at a reasonable price to start at strong side DE. Then you have Kyle Phillips. You also have Shepherd as a rotational DT. What the Jets don't have is that LEO weak side Pass Rush specialist who could also move to OLB depending on the formation. Basham could fill that role but I think they will let him walk due to lack of production. Zuniga could fill that role but he seems to be more if an inside rusher. And then there's Huff. And this is without including any potential FAs or rookies the Jets draft to specifically fit the scheme. So honestly I think it's too early to tell if Huff will get any legit shot to start at DE. I mean, he could be buried by the time we hit camp and preseason. It's really murky right now. There is SO MUCH depth on the D-line and with the Jets new coaching staff potentially changing to a 4-3, you know they will be adding even more players to figure out what works best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't real productive when he was getting 30-60% of the snaps. PFR gave him a 1 in AV which is very bad. PFF gave him a 58 which isn't so good either. Perhaps it was Williams D, but I really don't see much here. He'll more then likely get another year to show what he's got. Remember more then likely the Jets won't be playing a traditional 4-3, one of the the DE's will often be standing up as the "elephant" DE. Could thrive in that. I'm sure he'll get a chance.

At this point the DLine will be an interesting fight for spots with: Quinnen Williams Foley Fatukasi John Franklin-Myers Nathan Shepherd Jabari Zuniga Kyle Phillips Bryce Huff And then you figure through free agency and the draft we'll add at least 2 more to the mix. But considering the fact that we haven't had a legit pass rush in 10+ years I say the more the merrier. Only Williams has shown the ability to get to the QB so far and who knows how many Saleh will want to keep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like them all, especially Foley and JFM, but there's a numbers game that's going to start playing out soon with the new coaching regime and I have to think the true LEO position that Saleh desires isn't yet on the roster. There's a DE/Edge rusher coming to this team either thru FA or the Draft who I think the Jets want to have on the field at least 75% of the time.

HawkeyeJet Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I legitimately just realized I've been confusing Shaq Barrett and Shane Rey in my head for like 3 years now. Was about to correct that Barrett was a first rounder, but nope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is one of the best DL in the league against the run. PFF had him graded at 80.1 overall. As a bench mark Q. Williams was 81.4 overall.

Quinnen Williams Foley Fatukasi John Franklin-Myers Nathan Shepherd Jabari Zuniga Kyle Phillips Bryce Huff Who knows but this is really not how I see it. I think the Jets will really try to bring back JFM unless the price is absurd. I think he's a really nice fit as a strong side DE and they can pretty much pencil him in for that position as a starter. Same with Foley Fat. He fits nicely at the NT next to Q. They really have a solid trio that fit the 4-3 scheme if they bring back JFM. They have a NT, DT and Strong side DE who can all rush the passer and stuff the run while fulfilling their roles within the system. To me, the LEO position is the only one that is still a bit of a mystery. So any of those other guys- Zuniga, Phillips, Huff, may end up being on the chopping block if the jets bring in someone through FA or the draft that fits that role better. You would think Zuniga isn't cut simply because he was a 3rd round pick last year but he could be traded or buried on the depth chart, same thing for Huff (or he may find himself on the PS- I believe he is eligible). Nathan Shepherd is simply expendable because he is a rotational DT. But that doesn't mean he won't end up being an impact player next year. I don't think JD will trade him just for the sake of getting a draft pick. And unless his play completely falls off a cliff he wont get cut. Shepherd adds value as depth.

Nathan Shephard looks like a guy that on many Jets teams of the past 20 years would be a decent rotational guy. What about Zuniga as a down DE? All of these guys need to be evaluated in the context of two things: 1) The new system and coaching staff and 2) New personnel who will likely be added via FA and/or the Draft. We won't have 9 or 10 DLinemen, that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Shephard could be in jeopardy. Think Phillips gets another look at. In all honesty the DL line is one of the few units that looks pretty good to go. Need an ER, the "elephant" in this D. Besides that I don't see the Jets adding to many DL unless somebody Douglas likes falls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
