Jets rookie WR ArDarius Stewart said he played in a West Coast-like system at Alabama under former OC Lane Kiffin, so he doesn't anticipate a difficult transition to the Jets' offense:

Jets rookie WR Chad Hansen played at Cal with Giants rookie QB Davis Webb. He said Webb is so competitive that it'll be "tough" to sit behind Eli Manning, but his ex-mate believes he'll benefit in the long run.

The Jets have signed two of their nine draft picks -- RB Elijah McGuire and CB Derrick Jones, pair of sixth rounders.

Biggest remaining holes for the Jets

The Jets are fairly weak everywhere outside of their front seven, but Scott Kacsmar says QB presents the least hope in the Meadowlands.

Jets rookie S Jamal Adams is wearing No. 33, which is appropriate. His father, George Adams, wore No. 33 throughout his six-year NFL career with the Giants and Patriots. "It's always been a family number," the Jets' No. 1 pick said. "Everybody thinks it's an ugly number, but it's definitely something that deals with the family. I've never had a different number."

New uniform numbers for the Jets: Jamal Adams -- 33; Marcus Maye -- 26; ArDarius Stewart -- 18; Chad Hansen -- 6; Jordan Leggett -- 49; Elijah McGuire -- 35; Dylan Donahue -- 53; Jeremy Clark -- 34; Derrick Jones -- 31. Some notable numbers among new vets: Josh McCown -- 15 (Brandon Marshall's old number); Morris Claiborne -- 39. Claiborne has worn 24 his entire career, Darrelle Revis' old number. No one has 24 or 74, which belonged to Nick Mangold.

The Jets announced the signing of eight undrafted free agents: LB Austin Calitro (Villanova), CB Xavier Coleman (Portland State), WR/PR Brisly Estime (Syracuse), FB/TE Anthony Firkser (Harvard), DL Patrick Gamble (Georgia Tech), LB Connor Harris (Lindenwood), OT Javarius Leamon (South Carolina State), WR Gabe Marks (Washington State).

Remember all that talk two years ago about how the Jets were going to have one of the best secondaries in the NFL? Well, it didn't work out that way. Of the four free agents they signed in 2015 - Darrelle Revis, Antonio Cromartie, Marcus Gilchrist and Buster Skrine -- the only player still on the roster is Skrine. Gilchrist became the latest to go, an expected move on Thursday. Total out-of-pocket cost for the four: $69 million. Yikes.

A week after drafting two safeties, the Jets have released starter Marcus Gilchrist, who underwent major knee surgery in December. Gilchrist was on shaky ground before the draft; the additions of Jamal Adams and Marcus Maye sealed his fate. They also waived CB Nick Marshall, who recently received a four-game suspension for a PED violation.

Early impact rookies: Jordan Leggett

Leggett is another tight end who should play early. The 6-foot-5 rookie has the ideal size to be a red zone threat for the Jets.

The Jets claimed C Alex Balducci on waivers from the 49ers. He played in two games last season after going undrafted out of Oregon as a defensive lineman.
