2018 Jets Offense
Quarterback
Baker Mayfield (78 OVR, Quick Dev, Clutch trait, 23 years old) - The #3 overall pick in the draft, Baker steps in as the day 1 starter. The Jets front office is excited about having a long term answer at quarterback. The plan is to mostly play conservatively and try to establish the run as we develop Mayfield but at the same time with his ability not only to throw, but also his athleticism and clutch ability we feel confident that we can move the ball in the air when we need to.
Halfback
Isaiah Crowell (88 OVR, quick dev, 25 years old) - Crowell was the crown jewel of the Jets free agency pickups. Crowell gained over 1500 yards as a Brown last year and will be the feature back in a run first attack in New York. Crowell brings a fantastic combination of power running and make you miss elusiveness. The addition of Crowell was vital for the future of this offense and to take the pressure off of their rookie QB.
Matt Forte (83 OVR, 32 years old) - Forte has definitely lost a step and is no longer the dominant runner he once was in Chicago, but he is still an excellent receiver for a HB, is solid in pass protection and can spell Crowell and get meaningful carries. Matt missed 5 games due to injury last year, but still gained 561 yards with 8 TDs for the Jets last year.
Marlon Mack (75 OVR, 22 years old) - The Jets picked up Mack off of the scrap heap early last season and he has been an effective change of pace runner for them so far. Mack is a finesse runner and is unlikely to run anyone over, but he will get touches for this team as they groom him to be the #2 HB in the future.
Wide Receiver/Tight End
Quincy Enunwa (80 OVR, 26 years old) - The WR corps was thin last season in a large part because Quincy was lost for the year with a preseason injury. The Jets signed Enunwa to a new deal while he was in rehab and he comes back this year looking to make good on the promise he showed in 2016 when he caught 58 balls for 857 yards. With his combination of size and speed, the Jets expect Enunwa to be one of Mayfield's favorite targets this season.
Jermaine Kearse (82 OVR, 28 years old) - Kearse was brought in just before last year from Seattle and had his best season as a pro for the Jets with over 750 yards receiving. Kearse is in a contract year and with the number of young players on the depth chart he will have to have a great start this year for the Jets to put a lot of effort into bringing him back.
Robby Anderson (76 OVR, 25 years old) - Robby had a nice year last season, leading the Jets in receiving yards at 890. He moves into the slot this year where his speed should set up mismatches throughout the year.
Ardarius Stewart (75 OVR, 24 years old) - Stewart is not particularly fast, but he has good hands in traffic and can be effective when he isn't asked to be a featured receiver. He caught 34 balls last year, but his role will be diminished with the return of Enunwa.
Deebo Samuel (72 OVR, 22 years old) - The rookie out of South Carolina was a late round pick but he is a player the team thinks will be on the roster for the long haul. He is a solid kick returner and while he doesnt stand out as a receiver, he is adequate for a young player and could develop into a contributor over the next couple of seasons.
Will Tye, TE (80 OVR, 26 years old) - Tye is short by TE standards at just 6'2" but he has excellent athleticism and created mismatches with most LBs. He isnt a star, but he is a steady player that defenses have to account for.
Offensive Line
This is the teams biggest weak spot on offense. Guards James Carpenter and Brian Winters are both solid players, but the other 3 positions on the line are question marks. The hope is that Crowell and Mayfield can use their abilities to mask the lack of talent up front. If there is a spot that will derail this offense this season, its the line.
