Offensively, the West Coach principles and wide zone blocking that coordinator Mike LaFleur is preaching would seem to be right up the alley of QB Zach Wilson, OL Vera-Tucker, WR Moore and RB MC-I. Indeed, Wilson said Thursday night, "If I had to write exactly the offense I'd want to play in, it would be right there." And Carter, who was introduced as a Jets pick Saturday by assistant coach Leon Washington and even has a little of the look and size and offensive dynamic of Neon Leon from 2006-08, said, "I've been running pretty much wide zone since I was born."
Then there is the sixpack of defenders, split up into three corners (Carter II, Jason Pinnock, Brandin Echols), one sixth-round DT "steal" (Jonathan Marshall) and two safeties who look like naturals at linebacker for Saleh's and D-coord Jeff Ulbrich's 4-3 (Jamien Sherwood and Hamsah Nasirildeen).
"They're two very long, fast, versatile athletes," Saleh said of Sherwood, from Auburn, and Nasirildeen, from Florida State. "What we kind of ask out of our linebackers is to run, hit, use their speed and coverage ability.
"I don't know if it's the new NFL, but we just look at it differently in our scheme. ... We feel they'll be able to translate to linebacker pretty easily."
