Offseason and Draft Review: New York Jets
Continuing my series on the offseason, here are my thoughts on the New York Jets’ draft and other offseason moves…
I’m of a mixed mind on the Jets. On the one hand, I liked some of their moves which to my mind acknowledge the lack of talent on the roster and the need for long-term thinking. On the other hand, they’ve also made moves that seem like they’re trying to patch...

New York Jets – Stop With 3-4 Labels
The New York Jets are generally referred to as a “3-4″ defense. This description leads to people attempting to fit all their personnel into pre-conceived roles that lack flexibility. Once somebody is a defensive tackle, they have to be a space-eating two-gap player. Once somebody is an outside linebacker, they have to be in a 2-point stance, frequently lining up at the second...
