That is interesting.  Again raises the question of whether an edge at #23 is really the best path to improving the team as a whole.

It is tempting to have a supreme D but most likely: WR or RB (a reach).for Zach"s sake.

Added Zuniga last year so I think we should wait until 4-6 round. 
 

OL needs to be the pick @23 (or trade back a few spots for additional 3rd or 4th)and #34 unless an offensive stud drops into our laps (WR or Ettiene) Need a Center & RT or Guard. 

[varjet]

When you look at that DL, how excited it makes people, where they were drafted or otherwise graded, and then you look at the OL, I don't think there is any question that the Jets need to draft OL at 23, so long as it is not completely stupid from a player grade perspective.

Not sub-optimal.  Completely stupid.

I remember when Wilk, Sheldon, Harrison, and Williams were supposed to be the new Sack Exchange, the “Sons of Anarchy,” etc. 

 

lets hope they get it right this time.

Super excited to see Lawson— probably my favorite signing so far this offseason. To quote Benjamin Franklin, “CAN’T WAIT!”

[Barry McCockinner]

I like the Lawson signing but I think it's being over rated. Would love to be proven wrong on that one.

Agreed. From all reports, this EDGE class is developmental at best. This team needs to do everything possible to give Zach a chance. A situational edge rush prospect isn't the way to go in the first round. For better or worse, the immediate future of this team depends on Zach and his development, not the pass rush.

I think so because we need another guy to be full starter vs rotational backup. I mean i realize they all rotate but a rookie woudl be great to add in.

This is one of my favorit players from then

[Beerfish]

Premature esackulation.

[Aaron Hernandez]

I'm hopeful but will believe when I see it. Last decent pass rush we had was John Abraham and he got annoyed when you asked him to dress for a game

[munchmemory]

How many times have we put the cart before the horse with stuff like this?   You're happy with that lineup?  Awesome.  But let's call them a New Sack Exchange once they actually compete well together.   Who knows, they might wind up as the new "Sack of Sh*t Exchange".

Exactly.  In order to be considered a "sack exchange" it would seem to me that you need to have recorded at least one sack first.  I am optimistic about the defensive front we are gonna roll out there, but before we compare them with an all-time great Jets unit, let them prove something on the field first.

[genot]

I think we all need to consider that some of those pressures by Lawson might have been sacks, if Geno Atkins wasn't injured. No interior pressure. Not a problem with us.

So I guess it is a foregone conclusion that Zuniga is a bust already.   Well I don't think so, I get it he has had issues staying healthy and last year was no exception.  I am still willing to see what he can bring to the table next year, assuming he can stay on the field.   His talent is undeniable.

I forgot he was on the team.

yeah he had a season to forget but I am excited to see what Saleh can do with him.  The kid definitely has talent.

Where would we start a drafted receiver? In front of Mims? Or Crowder?Or Cole? Unless Mims is a bust those 3 behind Davis is enough depth, there’s only 1 football.

I’d be happy with

Sack Exchange .5

I would not be calling him a bust.  I think he is a much better fit as a 4-3 DE and I am curious to see what he can do this coming season.  With the depth we have along the defenzive front, we won't need too much from him, but he was really good at generating inside pressure at Florida.  I think he can be a nice rotational piece who should be given an opportunity to prove he can play at this level this season.

I think that Saleh will be able to unlock his ability and as you said, become a valuable rotational player.  At least I hope so.

maybe not since they signed lawson.  but what it also does is to let them draft a player that's more of a project or maybe zuniga will get better with coaching from saleh et al.

Almost all of highlight videos have the same nonsense. Drives me crazy.

That name was too cringe to be successful. 

[pdxgreen]

We could def use a Joe Klecko type on this team to offer to get down and kick anybody's ass if they get out of line.

Totally agree- it should be a lot closer to what he was doing in college. If he's going to be a productive pro, this is the situation that could unlock that. If not, it's probably not going to happen.

[DoubleDown]

Moneyball.  Maybe the Jets will actually have a pass rush this year.

[jetsjets]

I wonder who the 4 starting DL would be
