Before Joe Douglas can focus on who he plans on targeting in free agency come March, he’ll have a handful of in-house decisions to make.
The Jets have 25 players set to hit the open market this offseason. Some don’t figure to factor into New York’s plans for 2021, while others it’s safe to assume the Jets would like to keep around for a while. Either way, Douglas has a lot of work to do to put together a competitive roster for Robert Saleh.
Marcus Maye is the most important player Douglas has to decide on. The star safety was non-committal when it came to re-upping with the Jets when broached on the subject at the end of the regular season, but that does not mean he does not see a future for himself at One Jets Drive.
What should Douglas do with Maye this offseason? Let’s evaluate the situation in Jets Wire’s first free agent profile of the offseason.
