Jets Moves 2011

() FA Rank

QB Kellen Clemens

FB Tony Richardson

WR Santonio Holmes (#7)

Normally receivers going to new teams struggle. After being exiled from Pittsburgh for character reasons, Holmes caught 52 passes for 746 yards and 6 touchdowns in 12 games for the Jets this year. The Jets have to make a decision between Santonio Holmes and Braylon Edwards this offseason. It won’t be difficult.

WR Braylon Edwards (#45)

Talented, but inconsistent, drop happy and somewhat of a head case. His 80 catches for 1281 yards and 16 touchdowns in 2007 are his upside, but 16 drops to 55 catches in 2008 and only 45 catches for 630 yards and 4 touchdowns in 2009 are his downside. He’s a former #3 overall pick, but his 53 catches for 904 yards and 7 touchdowns, and only two drops, this year might have been just an effort to get a longterm deal. With 4 other Jets on this list to deal with, in addition to Brad Smith, and Brodney Pool Edwards might have to find a new team this offseason.

WR Brad Smith

TE Ben Hartsock

OT Damien Woody

OT Wayne Hunter

C Robert Turner

NT Kris Jenkins

3-4 DE Shaun Ellis (#18)

Ellis turned in another fine season in 2010 and dominated New England’s line in their AFC Divisional win, but he’s 34 in June and the Jets have other free agent needs.

3-4 DE Trevor Pryce

3-4 DE Vernon Gholston 

RLB Jason Taylor

RLB Jamaal Westerman

RLB Lance Laury

MLB David Harris (#12)- franchised

Harris is one of the better inside linebackers in the game. In 4 years with the Jets he has 428 tackles and 14.5 sacks.

CB Antonio Cromartie (#43)

Inconsistent, streaky, and a bit of a head case, but when he’s on he’s on and his type of size, speed, and ball skills are rare in this league. He’s best in a scheme where he can play deep, rather than in close in bump and run and it appears tackling and stopping the run are against his religion.

S Brodney Pool

S Eric Smith

S James Ihedigbo
