    The New York Jets took care of their biggest need in the first round [url=http://www.bengalscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-vontaze-burfict-jersey]Vontaze Burfict Jersey[/url] , drafting USC quarterback Sam Darnold with the No. 3 overall pick.

    They head into Day 2 with just one selection 鈥?a third-rounder 鈥?on Friday after trading their two second-rounders to Indianapolis last month as part of a deal to move up three spots from No. 6.

    The Jets will likely focus on adding either a pass rusher or depth on the defensive or offensive lines with the 72nd overall pick. Outside linebackers Jeff Holland of Auburn, Ogbonnia Okoronkwo of Oklahoma and Mississippi's Marquis Haynes could be targets for New York.

    A few days before the draft, general manager Mike Maccagnan wouldn't rule out trading to add more selections.

    The Jets were very active in free agency this winter, signing 16 players, including cornerback Trumaine Johnson, running back Isaiah Crowell [url=http://www.bengalscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-tyler-eifert-jersey]Tyler Eifert Jersey[/url] , linebacker Avery Williamson and wide receiver Terrelle Pryor (one year, $4.5 million). They also re-signed seven of their unrestricted free agents.

    New York still has plenty of holes to fill on the roster, but the largest was taken care of with the selection of Darnold. After Cleveland took Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield with the No. 1 pick and the Giants selected Penn State running back Saquon Barkley, the Jets were in position to take the quarterback who had been in the running to go first in the last several months leading up to the draft.

    UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENTS: QB Josh McCown; CB Morris Claiborne; C Wesley Johnson, TEs Austin Seferian-Jenkins and Chris Gragg; LBs Demario Davis, Bruce Carter [url=http://www.texanscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-kevin-johnson-jersey]Kevin Johnson Jersey[/url] , Julian Stanford, and David Bass; S Terrence Brooks; PK Chandler Catanzaro; DLs Kony Ealy and Ed Stinson; DT Mike Pennel; OLs Jonotthan Harrison, Ben Ijalana and Dakota Dozier.

    RESTRICTED FREE AGENTS: WR Quincy Enunwa; S Rontez Miles; OL Brent Qvale; TE Neal Sterling; DL Xavier Cooper.

    NEEDS: It's all about finding quarterback, running theme for this franchise for, well, decades. New York will be in Kirk Cousins sweepstakes and has money it would take to land him. But will the former Washington QB want team that has failed to make playoffs for seven straight seasons and underwent massive rebuild last year? Jets have new offensive coordinator in former QBs coach Jeremy Bates [url=http://www.coltscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-pierre-desir-jersey]Pierre Desir Jersey[/url] , who runs Mike and Kyle Shanahan-style system Cousins learned during his first two seasons in league. If Jets whiff on Cousins, there's good chance McCown will be back to mentor whomever New York takes with its first draft pick at No. 6 overall. Plenty of holes elsewhere, although Jets are interested in re-signing Claiborne, Seferian-Jenkins and Davis as core players. Help on offensive line, namely at center, proven pass rusher and cornerback will also be high priorities for GM Mike Maccagnan. Running back Matt Forte is retired [url=http://www.pantherscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-trai-turner-jersey]Trai Turner Jersey[/url] , so Jets might look for some depth in backfield, as well as on defensive line after releasing disappointing Muhammad Wilkerson.

    AVAILABLE SALARY CAP SPACE (approximately): $90 million.
