Since the start of the NFL offseason, the Jets have been one of the busiest clubs in the league by either trading for, signing or re-signing a total of seventeen players. Most of the work Gang Green has done comes on the defensive side of the ball, but we’re going to look at each and every one right here, no matter the position. https://api.spreaker.com/v2/episodes/70638022/download.mp3 DT T’Vondre Sweat: Added via trade from the Tennessee Titans in exchange for defensive end Jermaine Johnson, Sweat gives the Jets a 366-pund mountain in the middle of their defense. His 79.3 grade against the run was good enough for fifth in the NFL among defensive tackles with at least 100 reps according to PFF.com. The man they call “meatloaf” won the 2023 Outland Trophy at the University of Texas and was a unanimous All-American. Believed by some to be a first-round prospect entering the 2023 draft, Sweat would go early in round 2 with the 38th overall pick. As promised, some T'Vondre Sweat (93) highlights after watching a few of his 2025 games. Normally I'd highlight him, but he's 360 pounds, folks. If you can't find him then what are we even doing here?@nyjets getting a guy of this caliber while shedding $10 mil is a win. pic.twitter.com/4FptFw04tw — Glenn Naughton (@JNRadio_Glenn) February 27, 2026 Safety, Minkah Fitzpatrick: The Jets added Fitzpatrick, who was on the verge of being released, for a seventh-round draft choice. Presumably, the Jets did not believe Fitzpatrick would sign if he were to hit free agency, so they parted with a late pick to acquire his services. Once one of the league’s top ball hawks, Fitzpatrick spent much of last year playing the slot and intercepted just one pass. Even with Fitzpatrick having a diminished impact, he is an upgrade over much of what the Jets rolled out at safety last season. Exactly what his role will be with Gang Green remains to be seen but he did mention the possibility of being the Jets “big nickel”. DE Joseph Ossai: Signed to a 3-year deal for up to $36 million, Ossai tied his career high with five sacks in 2025 but there is some data that suggests he could be on the verge of a breakout. Of his five sacks this season, three of those, and eight of his 12 QB hits came over the final six weeks of the season. We’ll see if a strong finish to 2025 translates into a fast start in 2026. A disruptive player against the run in college for the University of Texas, Ossai picked up a career-high 9 tackles for loss last season which indicates even more progress for the 6′ 4” 253 pounder. Another encouraging number on Ossai is his total pressures as he managed a personal best of 43 after picking up 32 in 2024. Ossai gives the Jets a high ceiling defender who is clearly trending upward. DE Kingsley Enagbare: The Jets inked Enagbare to a 1-year deal worth up to $10 million after spending the first four years of his career in Green Bay with the Packers. The 6′ 4” 258 pounder should be good fit in the Jets new 3-4 scheme as he spent time at defensive end and outside linebacker for the Packers. Enagbare had a solid 23 stops last season as a part-time player and one thing that stands out is his pursuit/motor. Enagbare will cover as much ground as he has to in order to get in on a defensive stop. The exact style Aaron Glenn is looking for. LB DeMario Davis: Back with the Jets for a third time on a 2-year deal worth up to $22 million, what is there to say about Davis that even a casual fan doesn’t know. A guy you can put down for 100 tackles every year as he’s missed that mark just twice since being drafted back in 2012. Davis has spent the past eight seasons in New Orleans with the Saints where the fewest tackles he’s logged in a season was 105 back in 2021, and topping out with a career high last season with 143 at 37-years-old. "I know what it means to be a part of the Jets family. I know what it means to wear these colors, to wear this brand. It means a lot coming back." Demario Davis' talks about returning to the Jets: pic.twitter.com/8YHg2k5SCh — Jets Videos (@snyjets) March 12, 2026 DT David Onyemata: Familiar with head coach Aaron Glenn from their time together in New Orleans, Onyemata should be a key piece of the Jets fixing what was a putrid run defense last season. According to PFF, the 310 pound DT was tied for 10th in the NFL with 28 stops, defined as a taackle that constitutes a failure on offense. The durable Onyemata has started at least fourteen games in six of his past seven seasons, logging a career-high 62 tackles last season with 7 being tackles for loss. David Onyemata joins T'Vondre Sweat in the middle of a revamped @nyjets D-line to put a stop to teams running the ball down their throat all day. pic.twitter.com/te4cgz4CHS — Glenn Naughton (@JNRadio_Glenn) March 9, 2026 FB Andrew Beck: An signing that won’t move the needle for most, Beck is actually a solid player who just happens to play a position whose role has been diminished in recent years. But if offensive coordinator Frank Reich wanted to retain Beck, perhaps he envisions a role for him in his offense. Beck played double-digit snaps just three times in 2025 with his season high being 11 against the Bills and Jaguars. S Dane Belton: A potentially huge “bang for your buck” candidate as Belton got a 1-year deal worth up to $6 million after landing with the Giants as a fourth round pick out of Iowa back in 2022. A superior athlete who shows off explosion and sure tackling, Belton could become a fan favorite in short order between his face in the fan style and big time hits on special teams. If you were to watch Belton on just a handful of plays, you wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to learn he has an RAS (Relative Athletic Score) of 9.35. QB Geno Smith: The Jets sent a 2026 6th-round pick to the Raiders in exchange for Smith and a 7th-round pick. Even knowing Smith was about to be released, the Jets wanted to avoid having Smith choose a different club so secured his services via trade. Despite some objections from an extremely loud minority of fans, it seems Smith’s return is popular among fans. While Smith did throw a whopping 17 interceptions last season, it’s worth noting that the Raiders were a disaster on the offensive line, didn’t have any legitimate targets for Smith to throw to, and were always playing from behind. Add to that the fact that offensive coordinator Chip Kelly was calling plays that weren’t installed during the week and it was all a recipe for disaster. CB Nahshon Wright: The Jets got a surprisingly good bargain with Wright who came on board for a max value deal of $5.5 million for one season. This, despite being a young (27-years-old), 6′ 4” pro bowler coming off of a five interception season. WOW! Some impressive stuff here from newest @nyjets CB Nahshon Wright (@nahwrig). All five of his 2025 interceptions right here, and the last one is incredible.@JetNation pic.twitter.com/SAeNhiezSt — Glenn Naughton (@JNRadio_Glenn) March 10, 2026 Clearly there are some good bloodlines in the Wright family as his brother Rejzohn is a cornerback for the New Orleans Saints. Expect an interesting training camp battle between Wright and Azareye’h Thomas. K Cade York: York was added after Nick Folk departed in free agency but he won’t be alone come camp time. York is a long shot to make the roster so expect a rookie day 3 pick, undrafted free agent or veteran castoff to beat York out for the job. His 73.3% conversion rate just isn’t good enough, unless it turns out Chris Banjo is a legitimate miracle worker. OL Max Mitchell: Mitchell returns on a 1-year deal after playing just 73 snaps last year with 52 of those coming as a run blocker. The 2022 draft pick has had an up and down career up to this point but clearly did enough last year to at least earn himself a shot to last another year in Green and White. OG/C Xavier Newman? Newman has been a steadily improving player since arriving a few seasons ago and will have a shot to stick again as guard/center depth but may have an uphill battle should the Jets add an interior lineman through the draft. LG Dylan Parham: In need of a left guard following the departures of Alijah Vera-Tucker (Patriots) and John Simpson (Ravens), the Jets land a solid, experienced veteran in Parham. It’s a 2-year deal worth up to $20 million. Parham isn’t an elite level player, but has graded out as a solid pass blocker per PFF, picking up pass block grades of 60 or better in each of the past three seasons. The move also gives the Jets another versatile piece up front given the fact that he has experience at both guard spots. LB Mykal Walker: Walker quietly had a solid finish to the 2025 season as the Jets decided to bring him back on a 1-year deal. According to NFL insider Justin Fried, Walker finished as the NFL’s 8th highest graded linebacker from weeks 14-18. Largely unnoticed because the Jets were so bad as a unit, but obviously the front office was paying attention. Walker isn’t a household name, but has shown he can perform as a pro. Starting twelve games for the Cardinals in 2022, he did rack up 107 tackles, a sack and two interceptions. OT Chukwuma Okorafor: One of those under-the-radar moves that you just have to have as the Jets now have an experienced veteran backup tackle in Okorafor. He has started just eight games in the past three seasons but has started sixty for his career. S Andre Cisco: Cisco’s 2025 season in Green and White was a massive disappointment as injuries ended his season after just eight games in which he made no notable impact. This will give the former Jaguar a chance to regain the form he had in his previous four seasons when he intercepted eight passes and broke up 24 more. For Cisco it’s a 1-year deal worth up to $5.25 million. KR/RB Kene Nwangwu: The oft-injured Nwangwu is one of the NFL’s best return men but is rarely available due to a variety of injuries. But it’s not every day you can find a return man with 3 TD’s of 99 yards over the course of his career. Last season Nwangwu averaged 33.6 yards per kick return and will have a shot to earn a roster spot again for 2026.

Big Sal's not the only one fired up — Ryan breaks down one of the most exciting Packers signings of the offseason as Javon Hargrave lands in Green Bay, and the fit couldn't be more perfect. After a frustrating year buried in Brian Flores' stunt-heavy system and asked to play nose tackle instead of the three-tech role that made him a terror, Hargrave is coming home to Jonathan Gannon — the defensive coordinator who helped him post back-to-back 90+ PFF pass rush grades and be part of the first team in NFL history with four players reaching double-digit sacks in a single season. His family's reaction video? Pac Nation needs to find it immediately. Hargrave film and scheme deep-dive: Why Gannon's pressure-from-the-front-four philosophy unlocks everything Hargrave does best — quick pressure rate, three-tech alignment, and no more eating blocks in a gap control system Building the 2022 Eagles blueprint: Ryan maps out how Hargrave, Davante Wyatt, Micah Parsons, Lucas Van Ness, and Brenton Cox mirror the Eagles' historic defensive front — and where the Packers still need a Jordan Davis type Edge rush market chaos: The Ravens' Trey Hendrickson signing essentially removed two premier pass rushers from the NFC North's reach in less than 24 hours — and Ryan explains why that's a massive win for Green Bay NFC North free agency rundown: Kyler Murray to Minnesota looks inevitable, the Bears' safety room is a downgrade, and the Lions are still searching for a complementary edge to Hutchinson after cutting Josh Paschal Subscribe, rate, and review — and turn on auto-download so you never miss a breaking news drop.

Ryan wasn't even planning to record today — but the Packers went and did a dozen things while he was away, so here we are. The headliner: Green Bay traded defensive tackle Colby Wooden to Indianapolis for linebacker Zaire Franklin in a straight player-for-player swap. Ryan breaks down exactly why this move makes more sense than the PFF grades suggest. The Gannon A-Gap Blueprint: Ryan digs into Jonathan Gannon's history as a defensive coordinator in Philadelphia and Arizona, showing why a 275-pound defensive tackle in the A-gap simply doesn't fit his scheme — and why a 320+ pound anchor is almost certainly coming in this draft class. Who Is Zaire Franklin? Ryan unpacks Franklin's connection to Gannon dating back to Indianapolis, draws a compelling comp to TJ Edwards in Philly, and explains why his 2025 collapse was a scheme misfit under Lou Anarumo — not a talent cliff. The Cooper-Franklin Partnership: Franklin is the dirty-work green-dot linebacker who frees Edrin Cooper to fly around and make plays — the same dynamic Gannon used with Edwards and Kaiser White in his best defensive years. Nick Neiman Re-Signs: A quick look at the one-year deal for Green Bay's special teams ace and what it means for the linebacker depth chart heading into camp.

Ryan unpacks Franklin's connection to Gannon dating back to Indianapolis, draws a compelling comp to TJ Edwards in Philly, and explains why his 2025 collapse was a scheme misfit under Lou Anarumo — not a talent cliff. The Cooper-Franklin Partnership: Franklin is the dirty-work green-dot linebacker who frees Edrin Cooper to fly around and make plays — the same dynamic Gannon used with Edwards and Kaiser White in his best defensive years. Nick Neiman Re-Signs: A quick look at the one-year deal for Green Bay's special teams ace and what it means for the linebacker depth chart heading into camp.

The Draft Room dives deep into the 2026 NFL Combine's offensive prospects using Kevin Cole's Unexpected Points modeling — and the gap between what teams value and what actually predicts NFL success is massive. Ryan breaks down running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, offensive tackles, and interior linemen to find the combine winners, the overrated darlings, and the hidden gems that draft boards are getting wrong. Running Backs: Mike Washington Jr. and Jeremiah Love dominate both team value and actual value metrics, but Love carries a 20-point overvaluation gap — and zero-star Navy product Eli Heidenreich emerges as the most undervalued back, a WR/RB hybrid with elite PFF grades and a compelling character profile Wide Receivers: Jeff Caldwell is in a class by himself at 99.9th percentile across the board, while Colby Young — the big-bodied Georgia X-receiver — shows up as undervalued despite significant off-field concerns that will complicate his draft stock Tight Ends: A position loaded with overrated combine performers; Miles Kitzelman out of Tennessee stands out as the most undervalued, though his modest production and modest PFF blocking grades raise legitimate questions Offensive Line: Human skyscraper Mark Bell (6'9", 346 lbs) out of Miami is the most underrated tackle in the class, while Kansas State's Sam Hecht — zero sacks allowed in 850 career pass-blocking reps — may be the steal of the entire offensive line group Don't sleep on these prospects, Pac Nation.

Joe Mixon released, Danielle Hunter extended and Wade Smith breaks down the O-line rebuild. Plus Nick Caserio on cap strategy ahead of Monday's tampering period. John Harris hosts a loaded Friday show on the eve of the legal tampering period, packing in a week's worth of roster news, a Wade Smith interview, and Nick Caserio audio. The biggest headline: Joe Mixon has been released at his own request, saving the Texans $8 million in cap space and officially closing the book on his Houston tenure after an injury-plagued 2025 season. That move pairs with several other transactions — Danielle Hunter receives a contract extension providing both long-term security and immediate cap relief, Derek Stingley Jr. and Jalen Pitre restructure their deals to free up space, MJ Stewart returns on a one-year deal to shore up the secondary, and Dalton Schultz gets a one-year extension to remain through 2027. Former Pro Bowl guard Wade Smith provides the episode's analytical centerpiece in a pre-recorded interview with Marc Vandermeer. Wade credits Cole Popovich and the offensive line staff for genuine improvement in 2025, explains from personal experience why playing multiple positions can extend a career but may prevent maximizing at one spot, and describes the emotional rollercoaster of free agency — visiting Buffalo where former coaches tugged at his heartstrings, falling in love with Houston on his visit, then being pushed by his agent to leverage an Arizona trip he didn't want to take. On the current roster, Wade sees Aireontae Ersery and Trent Brown as likely starters at the tackle spots and emphasizes the need to invest in the interior, noting Ed Ingram's career-best season will price him high on the open market. He also raves about the Toro District facility at Bridgeland, comparing it to Frisco, Texas and the Cowboys' Star complex. The final segment features Nick Caserio's appearance on Sports Radio 610's Sean & Seth show, where the GM provides a candid look at the free agency big board process — starting with all available unrestricted free agents, narrowing to 25-30 realistic targets across positions, and eliminating mismatches in value quickly so the team doesn't "waste time." Caserio speaks warmly about Tytus Howard's professionalism, acknowledges the difficulty of managing competing contract demands, explains why the offensive line turnover isn't an indictment of individual players but a roster construction reality, and pushes back on PFF grades as "a data point" that lacks the context of being in meeting rooms. The show closes with league news including Taylor Decker's release from Detroit, Geno Smith's release from the Raiders, and DJ Moore's trade to Buffalo.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

KC Concepcion isn't a gadget and he's not “just a slot” he's a five-tool offensive weapon who wins as a route runner, creates chunk plays after the catch, flips games on special teams and still finishes in the red zone. I break down the stutter-to-superpower story, the NC State breakout, the 2024 dip with context, and how his Texas A&M season (Paul Hornung Award-type versatility) put him right back in the top-tier NFL Draft convo. We'll hit the five ways he changes an offense on Sundays, the real flaws (drops, press, NFL coverages), and why the Julian Edelman play-style comp keeps showing up.

Ryan loses his mind over Ocho's viral claim that Caleb Williams is the most talented quarterback of all time — then dismantles it play by play.

The rant is equal parts hilarious and surgical.

The Packers are heading into the offseason with the worst offensive line of the PFF era, and Ryan isn't buying what Brian Gutekunst is selling. Today's episode dives deep into the numbers behind Aaron Banks' career — and the data tells a very different story than the GM's glowing endorsement at the combine. A full PFF breakdown of Aaron Banks' career grades reveals a player who has never cracked the top 20 at his position, despite his massive contract and $9.5 million roster bonus looming on day three of the league year Ryan challenges the Packers' philosophical shift toward bigger, stronger offensive linemen, arguing the team has historically dominated with smaller, athletic technicians — and the power approach has produced nothing but failure Combine day one highlights including Florida kicker Trey Smack drilling a 60-yarder after getting iced, plus quick hits on Aaron Rodgers' timeline, Tyler Linderbaum's market-setting deal, and the Brian Thomas trade rumors Early clues on Jeff Gannon's defensive scheme suggest a 3-4 base with nickel principles — and why that's actually exciting news for Micah Parsons and Rashan Gary Is the front office in denial, or do they see something the stats don't?

It's Mock Draft Monday, and this time YOU built the board. Ryan takes fan-submitted draft crushes from the Packernet Facebook group and X to construct a complete seven-round mock draft for the Packers — and the results might surprise you.

Notre Dame has only had two first-round RBs in nearly seventy years and Jeremiyah Love is the next one I'm betting on. He's a true three-phase weapon with zone patience, home-run speed, and legit slot/receiving mismatch upside, backed by a monster 2025 season and that iconic 98-yard CFP TD. In this breakdown, I hit the story, the numbers, the tape traits, the small scout nitpicks, and why his play style comp keeps making sense.

Rich Bisaccia has officially stepped down as the Packers' special teams coordinator, and the Packernet After Dark phone lines are buzzing. Tonight's callers range from euphoric celebrations to serious concerns about the timing — with the combine weeks away and most coordinator positions already filled, did Green Bay wait too long to address the obvious? Callers debate whether Bisaccia was pushed out or left on his own terms, and why either scenario looks bad for the front office Mike Hebron raises alarms about coaching staff brain drain and whether a near-complete turnover can produce a championship run Ben from Minnesota brings two intriguing late-round draft prospects to the table: WR Bryce Lance (Trey Lance's brother) out of NDSU and RB Roman Hemby from Indiana The crew digs into PFF grade inconsistencies, chicharron recipes, presidential duels, and a Robert Duvall tribute — because that's how After Dark rolls Plus, Washington Metro asks about strength of schedule impact on player grades, and Embrace the Suck delivers the one-liner of the night. Subscribe and keep those calls coming — new callers always go to the front of the line! #Packers #GreenBay #NFL #SpecialTeams #Bisaccia #NFLDraft #PackernetAfterDark This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!
