The New York Jets may have the NFL's longest postseason drought at 13 seasons, but their roster is rife with playoff experience. Yes, there's Aaron Rodgers and his merry band of friends, but other players have their fair share of experience as well. One such player is one of the newest members of the Jets, defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw. Over the past three seasons with the San Francisco 49ers, Kinlaw has taken part in three NFC Championship Games as well as Super Bowl LVIII. With that wealth of experience under his belt, Kinlaw is ready to try and help his new team reach similar heights. Cred ..read more

A draft-day trade is now seemingly within the realm of possibility for the New York Jets. Initially, it seemed as if the Jets would need the No. 10 overall selection to secure a Week 1 offensive starter whether it'd be at tackle or WR2. After a slow start to the offseason, however, general manager Joe Douglas filled four starting spots through free agency and a trade. New York signed longtime Dallas Cowboys' left tackle Tyron Smith after poaching former Baltimore Ravens' left guard John Simpson off the free-agent market. Douglas picked up a third starting offensive lineman by trading for Raven ..read more

The New York Jets have earned to go wherever they’d like with the 10th overall pick in April’s draft. That includes trading the selection. A recent NFL.com mock draft had New York getting aggressive in the wake of recent signings. Acquiring left tackle Tyron Smith and receiver Mike Williams gives the Jets the flexibility to be aggressive, even if the more sound process would be to accumulate picks. In said mock draft, general manager Joe Douglas traded up to No. 5 for the rights to draft Ohio State receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. The trade would immediately give New York one of the league’s best ..read more

The New York Jets have spent the first week of free agency finding top players that match their price and locking them up to short-term deals.  On that metric alone, general manager Joe Douglas has knocked the first wave of free agency out of the park.  The shrewd signings, and value trades that have transformed New York's offense from a poor one in 2023, to a lethal combination in 2024 before the 2024 Draft rolls around is nothing short of remarkable.  It's also similar to another team that runs a similar philosophy to that of New York.  Douglas' career has taken him from ..read more

The signing of deep-threat wide receiver Mike Williams could turn the NFL Draft on its head for the New York Jets.  New York owns seven draft picks in April with the 10th overall pick being the biggest piece to their puzzle.

The 2023 season wasn't kind for the New York Jets offense. Injuries to Aaron Rodgers and the offensive line left the group struggling to put up points in a game that is predicated on it. New York, in a single week since the start of the new league year, has managed to put itself in a much better position with some shrewd trades, high-value signings, and some no-brainer decisions.  © Danielle Parhizkaran / USA TODAY NETWORK Now, despite having some clear depth concerns, the 2024 projected Jets offense is set to look much different than the group that struggled to produce much of a ..read more

The Buffalo Bills should – and presumably will – be favored to win the AFC East and secure their fifth consecutive division title. But for the first time in New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas’ tenure, hopes of winning the division are well-founded and more than just the residual optimism of trading for quarterback Aaron Rodgers. On Tuesday, Douglas followed the best free-agent signing of his Jets career with another signing that has New York pointed in the right direction. Dec 26, 2022; Indianapolis, Indiana, USA; Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (81) runs the ball while ..read more
