Robert Saleh’s 4-3 scheme is built around having a dominant and disruptive defensive line. The Jets definitely need some upgrades.

That’s true for most positions on the Jets, who went 4-13 in Saleh’s first season as coach. They ranked last in total defense and points allowed and were 29th in run defense.

The Jets have an opportunity to address the need for another edge rusher in the draft with the No. 4 or 10 picks.
