CB Byron Jones

There’s no way the Jets will be able to afford Jones given his price and all the other holes on the roster, but he’s still an incredible talent who would benefit from playing in Williams’ defense. The Jets truly lacked a shutdown corner in 2019 and Jones would fill that void once the team cuts Trumaine Johnson and Darryl Roberts. Though he didn’t intercept a pass in 2019, Jones finished in the 96.9 percentile yards allowed per cover snap – second among free-agent corners –with a 74.8 coverage grade from Pro Football Focus. He finished with the 11th-best coverage grade over the past two seasons.

A converted safety, Jones has proven to be a physical corner who can go toe-to-toe with the biggest receivers with his 6-foot, 205-pound frame. He’s only allowed 5.1 yards per target and finished in the top-10 in receptions allowed, yards allowed and catch rate allowed, according to Player Profiler. He’d be a perfect fit with Bless Austin and Brian Poole, should the Jets re-sign the latter.
