Makes no sense for #Jets to use high pick on small WR. Will not have high-octane pass game. Must overwhelm opponents physically. Embrace it.

Sheldon Richardson, speaking to local media, asked if he's better than a 3.5-sack DT: "Mooooost definitely. Most definitely." #nyj

Jets face the Patriots on a Thursday night for the third consecutive season (2nd in a row at Foxborough) #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) April 24, 2014
#Jets' bye week comes in Wk 11, latest they've had one since NFL expanded to the 32-team, eight-division alignment in 2002.
— Dennis Waszak Jr. (@DWAZ73) April 24, 2014
Jets' pass defense is suspect, and they face 5 of top 6 passing offenses from '13 in rapid-fire succession, Wks 2-6. That's scary. #nyj

— Bob Wischusen (@espnbob) April 24, 2014
Wow, all but one Thursday game is a divisional matchup. Why risk letting something so important be diminished by the short week?
— Bart Hubbuch (@HubbuchNYP) April 24, 2014
After seeing the Jets' schedule, I can tell the NFL realllly doesn't want Rex back in 2015.
— Bart Hubbuch (@HubbuchNYP) April 24, 2014
He said something similar to that after the schedule was released last year.
(1) Takeaways from Jets' sked: Having 3 of first 4 games at home gives them a chance for a fast start. but they have 3 of last 4 on road
— J.P. Pelzman (@JPPelzman) April 24, 2014
2) Key to season could be 5 days in October, home game vs. DEN followed by Thursday nite visit 2 Pats. Jets went 0-2 in similar spot in 2011
— J.P. Pelzman (@JPPelzman) April 24, 2014
Here's something potentially daunting I noticed about the #Dolphins' schedule. There are no back-to-back home games until Week 16-17.

— Brian Costello (@BrianCoz) April 24, 2014
@TheMikeDonnelly Week 1 will be even better. A defense with 6 new starters running around like chickens without heads. Won't be in sync.
— Panda (@L7Panda) April 24, 2014
Interesting wrinkle of Jets schedule: No division games until Week 7 (at Patriots on short week). So, six of last 10 games vs AFC East #nyj
— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) April 24, 2014
Random thoughts on schedule: Packers, who play Thurs night opener, will have extra rest before facing Jets at home in Wk 2. #nyj
