Summary

The Jets continue to boast a top defense. New York ranked fifth overall and scored the ninth most fantasy points. Their huge strength, thanks to shutdown corner Darrelle Revis, is their pass defense, which ranked fifth. The Jets also had 19 interceptions, which was among the best last season. They don't do a great job of pressuring the quarterback, though, which might be their one weakness. The Jets had 35 sacks, a number that isn't terrible but not great, either. The Jets also had a few issues against the run, ranking 13th but that number is higher because teams try to run a lot more than pass against this squad. The Jets have a pretty good special teams unit with Joe McKnight leading the way in the return game. He has big-play ability and gives the special teams a spark.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The sacks are about the only thing holding this unit back, but the interception, yardage and point totals make the Jets a top fantasy starter. New York isn't an elite fantasy defense but close to that group at the top.
