The New York Jets stacked up on defensive line talent prior to the 2021 NFL draft. Bringing in names like Carl Lawson, Sheldon Rankins and Vinny Curry made it clear that a new defensive bosses were in town—Robert Saleh and Jeff Ulbrich.
Adding the new guys to a group with some upper-echelon talent, in Quinnen Williams and Foley Fatukasi, Saleh’s inside-out philosophy he made work in San Francisco has made its way to the east coast.
Still, the Jets need another young edge rusher to complete the front, taking it from very good to very … very good—perhaps even dominant.
