I'd say 4 players would do it. One player in each postional group. It's not like we are a void of talent. Just need some performing veterans in there.

In no order

1-2 corner

1 mlb

2 olb

1 edge

1 safety

 

Now I guess there is talk they can move chinn up for a hybridish lb role so then we would need more safety help.  And you can certainly argue that we need more dtackle help but IMO its not that imperative yet.

A couple of questions:

Why 2 corners?
Why 2 OLBs?
Is it 1 edge and still 2 OLBs?

I dont trust DJ and henderson sucks and he might be cut.  Also there is the fact that Horn, freak injuries or not, hasnt played close to a full season yet

Shaq is probably gone after this year and we need another depth piece as well

1 edge to either play with burns or rotate in.  We just need more depth overall on the line

 

but like I said the new staff may change chinns position, he didnt have a great year

I trust DJ coming back from the injury. I am concerned about CJ and Keith though. As for Shaq, I think he returns on a heavily discounted contract.  I agree with edge and I think we need a ball hawking safety. 

This is the way I see it:

Horn, CB2, DJ
ILB, Luvu, B. Smith, Shaq
Burns, Edge, YGM, Barno
Safety, Woods (maybe FA)

Chinn somewhere in there. So 4 total players and I do expect a mix of FAs plus draft prospects.  I wouldnt spend capital on another corner bc im afraid of a Horn injury. Too soon for that.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
