What ESPN’s Adam Schefter Is Hearing
NFL insider Adam Schefter spent the last few weeks on the phone with front offices and coaching staffs seeking information before the draft.
In his look at the Jets, Schefter noted the “move in silence” philosophy HC Aaron Glenn spoke about during the NFL’s Annual League Meeting in Palm Beach, FL in March. “There has been less talking out of their building as they begin to focus on how to turn around a team that went 5-12 last season,” Schefter said.
He acknowledged that when it comes to the Green & White’s plan, particularly with the No. 7 overall selection, has been “the subject of speculation, shrouded in more secrecy than usual.”
He reported that Penn State TE Tyler Warren, who has been mentioned widely as a possible target for the Jets, “recently and quietly” did visit with club officials at 1 Jets Drive (he also met with the Giants). Warren is considered to be the top TE in the draft, a position the Jets will probably address at some point over the three-day draft. He is reportedly thought of highly by some in the organization, as is Missouri T Armand Membou.
“If the Jets target the other side of the ball, some people around the league believe Glenn could target a cornerback, with Texas’ Jahdae Barron as an option,” Schefter wrote. “Glenn, of course, played cornerback for 15 seasons in the NFL.”
