NY Jets podcast: Positional value ranking in Todd Bowles’ defense

Positions are not equal in the NFL. Some are substantially more valuable than others.

On the defensive side of the ball, this value is to a certain extent determined by scheme. One position might be very important in one system and not as important in a different system.

Positional value matters as a front office looks to put together a roster. It sometimes dictates what resources a team dedicates to a certain position.

On today’s podcast we take a look at the Todd Bowles defense and the value each position has. I will rank the positions by their importance and discuss the traits Bowles seems to look for at each spot.
