6 free agent defensive tackles the NY Jets should target

The New York Jets run defense struggled greatly last season. They gave up 138.3 yards per game on the ground, which ranked 29th in the league.

With Folorunso Fatukasi set to reach free agency, the Jets have some big shoes to fill on the defensive line if they do not retain their homegrown run-stuffer.

This free-agent defensive tackle class has multiple quality options for the Jets to consider.

D.J. Jones, San Francisco 49ers

D.J. Jones is coming off a career year and will play this upcoming season at 27 years old, his sixth season in the league.
