The Jets are going to be bad in 2017 by design (nothing signals that more than signing Josh McCown as the starting quarterback), which means they'll likely have a chance to draft a quarterback in what is supposedly one of the best quarterback classes in a long time in 2018. Chad Hansen might be a steal in the fourth round. They started by capitalizing on Jamal Adams' surprising mini-slide. They want to cut unnecessary weight and build through the draft. They didn't jeopardize their future by signing impact-now players. It means the Jets didn't overpay someone who won't be a contributor by the time they get things turned around. The Jets didn't sign anyone to replace them, but that's a good thing. Darrelle Revis is old and slow, Brandon Marshall is old and coming off an injury-plagued season, Nick Mangold is old and Ryan Clady is old and injured. Look at their cuts and you realize all of them deserved to be shown the door. But that doesn't mean they had a bad offseason. They're worse than a year ago, when they went 5-11. They did not improve the roster, instead cutting talented, older players.
Trust me, I'll give you plenty of better reasons to yell at me. So, when the 49ers inevitably go 2-14, please don't cite this article when you yell at me on Twitter. But that doesn't mean I'm expecting them to wind up in the postseason like the Patriots - another team near the top.
For example, the 49ers had a tremendous offseason, so you'll see them positioned near the top of this list. On that note, it's time to judge the 32 NFL front offices and the jobs they did this offseason, which means it's time for NFL front office Power Rankings.īefore we begin, this list does not serve as a predictor for how teams will perform next season. The point being, the most meaningful part of the offseason - when front offices earn their paychecks - is over. Some still remain - notably Colin Kaepernick - but if a free agent signs this late in the process, he's unlikely to play a substantial, game-changing role in the season to come. At this point, nearly every important free agent has landed with his new team. The NFL offseason isn't over - unless you count OTAs and training camp as a portion of the actual season, which I don't - but the important parts are wrapped up after the draft.
