Some Jets upset with holes on roster

NFL, New York Jets

There's a disenchantment with some in the New York Jets organization at the lack of talent general manager John Idzik has acquired despite the means he had to improve the roster, according to team sources.

The issue existed in the offseason and has lingered into the season, all the way to before Sunday's game against Detroit.

What bothers some in the organization, according to sources, are the holes the Jets left -- especially at cornerback, but also at wide receiver, pass rusher and in the return game.

It wasn't as if the Jets couldn't spend money as the team is $21.2 million under the cap as of Sunday, which is why some in the organization are upset Idzik wasn't more aggressive on players such as cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (signed with the Giants), cornerback Darrelle Revis (went to Patriots) or wide receiver DeSean Jackson (joined Redskins).

The Jets have plenty of cap room, but also plenty of questions to go along with it. The results so far have been one of production. The team ranks second in the NFL in defense and 8th in offense but has a record of 1-2.
