What Have the New York Jets Done Right and Wrong in 2022 NFL Free Agency So Far? 3/18/22

Locked on Jets 4/4/18 Episode 384: Catching Up on Some Minor Signings: The major impact portion of free agency has now been over for a while. The Jets made a number of moves in the first few days of the league year hoping to upgrade weak spots on their roster. The team continues to make signings of veteran free agents. These signings are for small name players. The team is buying low on these guys. Some of them have talent. Some of them have upside. They all come with flaws, which is why they are available at a cheap rate. Today we look at some of the recent signings the Jets have made looking for diamonds in the rough.

Locked on Jets 2/27/19 Episode 579: What the Jets Should Prioritize in Free Agency: 2019 will be a big year in free agency for the Jets. The team has a number of roster vacancies. It also has a number of key needs to fill and a lack of impact players. The Jets do have a large amount of cap space to try and improve the team. On today's podcast I offer some thoughts on the areas I would prioritize this offseason. The Jets will be presented with a number of opportunities. Some will be right. Some will be wrong. Certain areas are more important to address than others. None of this necessarily means these are the only areas the Jets should look to address. But these should be the main focus aside from opportunities that are too good to be true. Learn more about your ad choices.

Locked on Jets 11/28/18 Episode 519: What the Jets Should Do: Mired in another miserable season, changes are likely coming to the Jets. A coaching change is a virtual certainty. A change in general managers is also plausible, albeit less clear. Things haven't gone the way this regime has planned. We have done plenty of looking to the past. On today's show I offer some thoughts on how the Jets should build their team going forward. In some of these areas the Jets have arguably made an attempt to follow this advice already, but the results just haven't been there. In any event, there are some things I think this team needs to keep in mind as it digs itself out from another disappointing year. Learn more about your ad choices.

Locked on Jets 2/12/19 Episode 569: Looking at Offensive Free Agents: We are on the way to free agency. The Jets cannot start using their cap space to sign free agents from other teams until the new league year begins. Before that, they can address internal matters. The team has a striking number of free agents this year. One of the reasons the Jets are projected to have so much cap space is they have so few players under contract for 2019. A team coming off a 4-12 season needs a major makeover, Many free agents should not return as the Jets should be in the market for upgrades. There might be logic in retaining a few free agents, however, if the price is right. On today's podcast we assess Jets free agents on the offensive side of the football and figure out what the interest level in keeping each of these players should be.

What the Jets Need on Offense Episode 841 4/7/20: Frequently when discussing a team's needs the focus is on whether a team is strong or weak at a given position. There are, however, numerous ways to look at a team's needs. Even if a certain position isn't necessarily a weakness there are likely areas where a position group is incomplete. These are needs within a position. On today's podcast we will take a look at what the Jets need at each position on offense. Compared with the defense, the Jets offense needs a lot of help. The defense was above average a year ago while the offense was ranked at the bottom of the league in many major categories. What specifically could complete offensive positions groups for the team?

Locked on Jets 6/20/19 Episode 657: Top Five Things to Watch Before Training Camp: We are in the quietest part of the NFL calendar. This is the only six week stretch of the year where nothing is going on. At other points of the year we have training camp, preseason, games, the Draft, free agency, or the offseason program to discuss. Right now we have none of those things. There is not much going on. There are a few things on the horizon to watch. On today's podcast we discuss the top five developments to monitor between now and training camp for the Jets. There might not be much daily excitement, but there still will be a few developments worth watching. On the show we discuss potential action on the waiver wire, a possible informal workout Sam Darnold could be putting together, getting the team's top pick signed before training camp, the staffing up of the front office, and a possible significant addition through either free agency or a trade.

What the Jets Need on Defense Episode 842 4/8/20: On yesterday's podcast I offered thoughts on what the Jets need at each position on the offensive side of the ball. Today we move to the defense. I go through each spot on the defense and say what I think the Jets should look to add. The offensive situation for the Jets is a bigger issue. That is reflected in the 2019 statistics. While the team was near the bottom of the league in offensive productivity a year ago, the Jets had one of the better defenses in the NFL. There is a relatively common theme on the defensive side of the ball. There are plenty of passable players or at least guys who could become viable starters if everything breaks right. What is generally lacking is star power. Adding some might be difficult considering the priority offense will need to take, but this will be worth keeping in mind going forward.

Locked on Jets 5/9/18 Episode 408: Still Needs Addressing: With most offseason moves completed, it is time to take stock of where the Jets are. Yesterday our podcast examined the positions where the Jets have improved most in the offseason. Today we are going to take a look at the positions where the team still has work to do. There wasn't much of a chance the Jets were going to be able to fill all of their needs in one offseason. Building this roster is going to take longer. It still is plausible the Jets could further upgrade their roster between now and the start of the 2018 season. There is the occasional summer transaction. A player might wear out his welcome with another team. There could be a contract dispute of some sort. A team might just decide to go in a different direction. With that said, the vast majority of moves are now done. If you are able to upgrade a spot after this point, you are lucky. With that in mind, our focus is on positions that are still incomplete for the by Locked On Jets - Daily Podcast On The New York Jets

Locked on Jets 5/8/18 Episode 407: Most Improved Positions on the Roster: The period in which the Jets could improve their roster in 2018 is just about over. There are always a handful of moves that take place between now and the season. There are still a few decent free agents who have yet to catch on with a new team. There are a couple of players who will be late cuts due to contract disputes or other issues. Some useful players might get released at the end of training camp. For the most part, though, each team has all of its major contributors for 2018 on the roster at this point. The most frequent periods where NFL teams upgrade their rosters are in the early days of free agency and the NFL Draft. With that in mind, our podcast today focuses on upgrades the Jets made during the offseason. In particular, I take a look at the four positions I think were the most improved in free agency and the Draft. Learn more about your ad choices.

Reactions to Avoid in the NFL Draft Episode 847 4/15/20: The scheduled start of the 2020 NFL Draft is just over a week away. The Jets and the rest of the league will look to add young talent to their rosters. In the aftermath of the NFL Draft there is frequently overreaction. I should know. I have frequently overreacted in the past. All of us have ideas about what our teams should do. All of us have prospects we like and prospects we dislike. If your team follows your preferred course, you are likely to declare it a great Draft. If your team doesn't, you might express disappointment. Immediate Draft reactions both positive and negative frequently prove to be incorrect over the long haul, though. Even the most brilliant minds in the history of the game have made Draft errors. On today's podcast I give thoughts on things you can do to help prevent these overreactions. There are certain things worth ignoring during and immediately after the NFL Draft.

Locked on Jets Episode 632: Questions for Defense: The offseason continues for the Jets. Late last week the team began an orientation for the rookies. Rather than the typical on field instruction most teams hold for their Draft picks, undrafted free agents, and assorted young players the team held a classroom session. The veteran players continue to take part in the team's offseason program. Meanwhile, the fans are waiting for the season. They dream of every player reaching his ceiling. On a podcast episode last week we discussed some of the big questions key players on the offense will have to answer for the Jets. Today we turn our attention to the defense.

Locked on Jets 2/13/19 Episode 570: Looking at Defensive Free Agents: We are in the offseason moving toward free agency. The Jets cannot speak with free agents under contract to other teams for a few weeks, but they can negotiate with their own free agents if there are any worth bringing back. Yesterday's podcast focused on Jets free agents from the offensive side of the football. On today's show we turn our attention to the defensive side. No 4-12 football team is going to have a ton of must-sign free agents, but it could make sense to retain some of these players under certain circumstances. Tune in as I go through all of the projected free agent defenders and special teamers from exclusive rights guys to restricted free agents to unrestricted free agents.
