Gang Green’s 2017 first and second-round draft picks did not disappoint in their rookie campaigns. Jamal Adams proved to be as good as advertised, while Marcus Maye showed a lot of upside for a second-round selection.
But, no good team can be without depth, therefore general manager Mike Maccagnan swooped up veteran J.J. Wilcox late in free agency. He looked as though he would be inking a deal in the bay with the San Francisco 49ers. Rather, head coach Todd Bowles led Wilcox to decide to come to New York.
