New York Jets put emphasis on offense in draft

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Over the last 13 seasons, no team has produced fewer points, fewer touchdowns and fewer yards than the New York Jets, who also committed the most turnovers over that postseason-less span.

Essentially the Jets have continuously struck out -- it's the NFL version of the "Golden Sombrero" -- which explains why owner Woody Johnson told reporters last month at the league meetings, "Offense, offense. Yeah, fully focused on it."

After an emphasis on offense in free agency, the Jets doubled down in the draft, using each of their first five picks on an offensive player -- a first for them in the common-draft era.
