New York Jets

The Jets are in desperate need of corners, not just corners, but playmakers. Farley is a solid playmaker. The Jets own one of the first picks in the second round of this year’s draft. With the depth at running back, if they can fill the offensive guard position at 23, corner should be a good bet here. Saleh`s system will be friendly to Farley as he won’t be asked to do a ton of stuff.

The Jets also boast an impressively redone pass rush, which should cause quarterback issues.

That is good news for the ball-hawking Farley he can show off what he is best at. He could also land on special teams seeing as how the Jets don’t have an answer there either. This is most likely the earliest we could see Farley drafted this year. Though if someone wants it bad enough the Jets might be willing to part with this pick and take Farley later in the round.

Saleh is bringing a new system and feel to the Jets and they need to redo the roster to make it happen.

Last year the Jets had one of the least talented secondaries in the league. Farley, I could see starting as the second corner and working his way up. The Jets inside the division pre-draft only really have to worry about one receiver, Diggs from Buffalo. So he could be brought about far slower than on other teams, and with the upgraded pass rush they could throw him out just in nickel to start the season.
