It’s painfully obvious the areas in which the Jets fall short. What’s worse is that two of the three championship positions (quarterback, offensive line and edge pass rusher) fall extremely short of even NFL average. Now that Teddy and Sam are in-house, quarterback is the exception.

On the plus side, depth is pretty solid across the board.

Though things change on a dime once Week 4 of the NFL preseason comes to a close, this projection best resembles the depth chart, what happened in camp and what’s currently going on in Florham Park, New Jersey.
