Muhammad Wilkerson is obviously the gem of this free agency class and he'll turn 27 right before the season opener. I don't know where he plays, but then again I don't really care. Go get good players and then figure out a scheme with what you have. Same goes with Damon Harrison, although he would occupy the spot that Roy Miller and Abry Jones played very well last year.
Stevan Ridley isn't any good. He's just a name you're familiar with, so we'll get him out of contention right now. Chris Ivory was the feature back last year with the Jets and he may not want a reduced role. Plus, the Jets may not want to get rid of him. Bilal Powell fits the role well, and he's the pass-catching option of the two, so he could do well as Yeldon's partner in the backfield.
