Predicting the Jets’ 16-man practice squad

The Jets will have a 16-man practice squad filled out soon. Here is our crack at predicting the group.

The Jets began their roster purge on Monday afternoon, making multiple cuts to begin the process of trimming down from 80 to 53 players by Tuesday at 4 p.m.

Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh are going to have to make some excruciatingly tough decisions on Tuesday, but not all of the players they cut are necessarily done with the Jets. New York still has a 16-man practice squad to fill out and while some of its young talent isn’t ready to be part of the active roster, there is still a place for players to develop and potentially contribute down the road.

Here is Jets Wire’s crack at predicting which 16 players will land on the Jets’ practice squad, which will start to take shape Wednesday afternoon.
