Jets depth chart 2021 New Yorks projecte

[ymakerpi8d]

The underwent a series of seismic changes this offseason. Gone is deposed ex-coach Adam Gase, along with several of the players whose underperformance was the trademark of the Gase era. In his place, the Jets hired former defensive coordinator Robert Saleh, and he and general manager Joe Douglas set out to remake the team's roster in their image.That renovation included a change at quarterback, along with a change in offensive philosophy. It also included splashing the pot in free agency, laying out big money for two of the top targets on the market -- one of whom is out for the season. All of the upheaval has resulted in a Budda Baker Jersey dramatically different depth chart from the one the Jets rolled out last year, but one that seems to have the team moving in the right direction.As part of our ongoing series here at CBSSports.com, let's take a look at where the Jets' roster stands right now. StarterBackupDepthDepthQB * RB * FB WR WR *WR TE LT LG * C RG RT Obviously, the Jets have made a lot of changes on this side of the ball. Not only do they have a new offensive coordinator (Mike LaFleur, the former 49ers pa sing-game coordinator and brother of head coach Matt LaFleur), they've got four new starters -- at least two of which are rookies. (It's po sible they could have three rookies starting.)The first change is under center, where No. 2 overall pick Zach Wilson takes over for , who was traded to the . The Jets are already doing a better job surrounding Wilson with talent than they ever did Pat Tillman Jersey for Darnold, and nowhere is that more obvious than on his blind side, where they added Alijah Vera-Tucker to play guard next to last year's first-round pick, Mekhi Becton. New York also added Morgan Moses late in free agency, upgrading on George Fant on the right side.The Jets also brought in Corey Davis in free agency, as well as Elijah Moore at the top of the second round of the draft. Perhaps the new coaching staff can finally get something out of Chris Herndon, who was utterly wasted in Jack Crawford Jersey the Adam Gase era. The Shanahan-style offense is tight end-friendly, and LaFleur should be able to use the athletic Herndon to create matchup advantages -- if he can get on the field despite his relatively poor blocking.The biggest question mark here is in the backfield, where it's unclear if Michael Carter will be the lead man right away or if he'll have to share reps with Tevin Coleman and/or Ty Johnson. The Jets rotated pretty heavily during the preseason, and it seems like all three NFL Arizona Cardinals Jersey of those guys will be involved in some sort of committee.

New York made a splashy signing with , but he's out for the year after tearing his Achilles during camp, and has been replaced by the just-acquired Carl Lawson. New York also still has Quinnen Williams and Marcus Maye held over from the previous regime, but this is a talent-deprived group at a bunch of positions.Specifically, the cornerback group in New York is . It was somewhat surprising that the Jets didn't addre s the position earlier in the draft, and it'll be interesting to see if they can cover for long enough to let the pa s rush hit home. Saleh has done yeoman's work with seemingly undermanned secondaries Andre Baccellia Jersey before, but he's got his work cut out for him here -- even if Maye and Ashtyn Davis (who might begin the season on the PUP list) or Lamarcus Joyner could form a solid safety duo.Lawson will get help up front primarily from Williams, Rankins, John Franklin-Myers, Ronald Blair, but there are some solid depth pieces available as well. It'll be interesting to watch C.J. Mosley in his return after he opted out of last season, and to see whether the Jets can finally tap into the athleticism that made Jarrad Davis a first-round pick. They'll have to count on the front seven to make the majority of the plays.
