There will still be shows between now and then, but we will move to a summer schedule. In many ways the podcast year begins with the start of training camp and ends now, around the time the offseason program ends. What follows is the quietest time on the NFL calendar.It has been a very trying year in many ways for the Jets. Training camp started with a holdout of the new franchise quarterback. While the team showed signs of life early in the 2018 season, things got ugly very quickly. The team fell apart, and the coaching staff was fired. A somewhat erratic offseason followed.Then the Jets hired Joe Douglas as their general manager, and things seem much brighter. What you will hear on today’s show are some personal reflections on the year that was. Is Tevin Coleman the number two RB on the free agency board?

Up until the start of the 2019 free agency period in March, I’ll be running through a bunch of names the Jets could potentially bring in with their hoard of cap space. Let’s get into it!Name: Tevin ColemanBirthday/Age: April 16th Authentic Blessuan Austin Jersey , 1993 (age 26 on September 1st)Height/Weight: 6’1, 210FA type: UnrestrictedCollege: Indiana (drafted 73rd overall by the Falcons in the third round of the 2015 draft)Team(s): Falcons (2015-18)Position/usage: Running back. One of the league’s most featured pass catchers at the position, frequently split out wide2018 stats: 16 games, 167 rushes, 800 yards (4.8 per attempt, 50.0 per game), 4 touchdowns. 32 catches, 42 targets, 276 yards (8.6 per reception Blessuan Austin Jersey Boys , 17.3 per game), 5 touchdowns Previous salary: 2015 third round, 73rd overall rookie contract. $1.0M cap hit in 2018Spotrac Market Value: $5.0M/year (would currently be 14th highest at running back)Jets connections: Falcons teammate of Andre RobertsMeasurables (via mockdraftable.com):Pros:Will only be 26 at the start of 201933 of 34 games played over last two seasonsLikely a sizable discount compared to Le’Veon BellVery good receiving back. Since 2016, among running backs he ranks 2nd in receiving touchdowns (11) and 16th in receiving yards (996). His 11.1 yards per reception average ranks 2nd among the 68 running backs with at least 50 targets over that span, and his 8.1 yards per target average ranks 3rdGenerated a 126.7 passer rating when targeted in 2018, best among the 32 running backs with at least 40 targets. Ranked 6th in 2017 (108.8) and 1st in 2016 (143.4)Tremendous big play threat in ground game. Has 38 career carries for 15+ yards, which is 10th most in the league over that span despite ranking 24th in total carries. 7.2% of career carries for 15+ yards, smashing league average of 5.0%. His 9.0% rate of 15+ carries in 2018 ranked fourth in the leagueFrom our friends at The Falcoholic: “He has terrific hands and is savvy as a route runner for a running back, and his speed makes him incredibly dangerous.”Here Coleman shows you some of the versatility he offers as he lines up out wide Infant Blessuan Austin Jersey , and runs a sharp drag route while taking advantage of a cleverly designed route combination that frees him up a world of open grass. He makes the most of the opportunity after the catch.More out wide from Coleman, as he lines up slot left and takes the quick screen 39 yards to the house. This is one of two 30+ yard receiving touchdowns that Coleman owns in his career. A Jets running back hasn’t scored a 30+ yard receiving touchdown since Adrian Murrell in 1995.Cons:His ability as a rusher has been questioned. The Falcoholic told me: “While he is fairly physical and a fine blocker, Coleman does have a nasty habit of falling off balance and loses out on opportunities for big gains as a result. He can be your lead back, but you will need someone else for situations where a bruising back who will fall forward and can work effectively with limited blocking is necessary.”There are quite a few numbers that back these claims. Coleman has rated poorly in Football Outsiders’ Success Rate, which measures the frequency at which a back produces a positive result based on down and distance. Coleman ranked 37th of 47 in 2018, 39th of 47 in 2017, and 25th of 42 in 2016Stuffed frequently. 47.3% of career carries have resulted in two yards or less and no first down, versus the league average of 43.3%Not reliable or efficient in power situations. Has converted only 13 of 22 (59.1%) career 3rd/4th & 1 situations, well below the league average of 71.5%. 0 for 3 on 3rd/4th & 2 and 0 for 1 on 3rd/4th & 3Good health over the past two seasons and fairly limited career mileage Blessuan Austin Jersey Draft , but has an injury history in the past. Between college and the NFL, has four times had a stint of multiple missed gamesI like Coleman a lot as a fallback option if the Jets are not able to acquire Le’Veon Bell. The Falcoholic told me that they do expect him to move elsewhere this offseason, so it seems Coleman will be at the forefront of the running back market right behind the melodramatic former Steeler.Coleman should come at an affordable cost, and would bring proven big play propensity and elite receiving ability to the table. He would probably need a runningmate with a downhill running style, which the Jets don’t really have on their roster. I could see them looking to the draft to find a fit for that spot. Regardless, Coleman has some exciting traits that some offense out there will be happy to throw into the mix.
