FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Robert Saleh raised some eyebrows a few weeks ago when he declared the New York Jets have “embarrassed” some of the NFL's top quarterbacks this season. “So whether it's a Super Bowl defending (champion) quarterback, an MVP quarterback or a first-year starting quarterback, we're going to treat them the same way. “Our goal is to be leading in turnovers on defense and obviously a great defense knows how to score or set up scores," Mosley said. The impressive numbers on defense are in stark contrast to those being put up by Wilson and the offense. The Jets rank 31st in overall offense, 30th in both scoring and passing and last in third-down percentage and red-zone conversion percentage.

The New York area’s football teams, at least moderately successful last year, did not get to pick in the glamorous top few spots in the first round of the N.F.L. Away from the spotlight, they both selected defensive players who look like they can help already solid cores. Anything the Jets did on draft day was going to be overshadowed by the blockbuster trade for the future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers earlier in the week. That acquisition prompted many prognosticators to assume the Jets would take an offensive lineman to protect their new asset. 15 (two slots lower than originally assigned because of a pick swap in the Rodgers deal), the Jets went for Will McDonald IV, an edge-rushing defensive end from Iowa State.
