With their selection of USC defensive lineman Leonard Williams with the sixth overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft, the New York Jets showed that they are still committed to fielding one of the best defensive lines in football.
That's one thing that won't change now that the Rex Ryan era is over, and the Todd Bowles era has begun. The Jets' new head coach may use some of the old pieces a little differently, but for the most part, things will remain the same.
The Jets will still be operating mainly out of a one-gap 3-4 defense that calls for their defensive linemen to penetrate up the field to create pressure on the quarterback and stop runs in the backfield before they get started.
