They have areas where they can improve. You cant just compare us to Indy, Pitt, and New England every time. These are elite franchises with years of stability in coaching and systems. If we stay the course we could eventually get there. I actually am happy with our offseason. We have gotten younger at a lot of positions and have upgraded both our offensive and defensive lines (and we aren't done yet). And our O-line shoudl be better just with the improvement of the guys already there. Lets have some faith.

OK, first off, we traded Laverneous Coles for Moss, who (talking about Coles) at that time was a more productive receiver. so, it can be argued, that the Jets actually came out on the better side of that deal. That's number one.
And as for the other names you mentioned... Even a blindfolded person, given enough darts will hit the bulls-eye at some point. Those were more of on the dart board hits though, Springs was a beast WHEN he wasn't injured, same goes for Daniels, but Griffen is solid. And the only improvement we made so far is the Dockery signing. WHICH IS GOOD, don't get me wrong, but that line needs a makeover.
And just read what the experts (yes, the experts, who, like it or not know more about football than any of us do) have to say about our draft compared to Indy's and New England's, we don't have the FO talent to draft like they do.
