New York Jets scored 17.6 points a game in 2025, 29th in the league. The model forecasts 17.8 for 2026, 32nd. Every page in this series then asks the same two questions of that forecast — how many fantasy starters does an offense like this actually support, and is the market charging the right price for them — and answers both from the data rather than from the shape of the template. So the question for New York Jets is a pricing question: the model and the market disagree about this whole offense by 12 league places, and someone is wrong.
Who this offense actually is
Over 2021–2025 this offense scored 18.2/17.4/15.8/19.9/17.6 points a game and threw on 61.3/60.8/60.8/62.5/52.1 percent of its snaps. Two separate readings come out of that. Its level: 17.6 in 2025, level with its own five-year mean of 17.8. Its trend: a five-year slope of +0.1 points a season, which is flat.
Across the same window it has leaned further into the run (-1.7 points of pass rate a season). In 2025 it ran 55.9 snaps from scrimmage a game, 27th in the league. That is play volume, not pace: it counts snaps, and snaps are driven as much by first downs, turnovers and game script as by how fast a team chooses to play. Genuine situation-neutral pace is not in this dataset, so this series does not claim it.
What changed, and why
Tight end moves from Mason Taylor to Kenyon Sadiq (a rookie) and quarterback, running back and receiver stay where they were. The model's scoring forecast moves +0.2 points a game against 2025, with pass rate +7.4 points and snaps +2.6 a game. The forecast delta is the result of those changes; the job changes above are the cause.
No fantasy-relevant player on this roster changed teams.
Coordinator, scheme and offensive-line movement are not in this dataset and are not recorded for this team. They are left blank rather than guessed at.
Where the fantasy points go
For 2026 the model grades this offense QB 31st, RB 32nd, WR 31st, TE 31st. Its relative strength is quarterback — 31st, one of the worst environments in the league. Its relative weakness is running back — 32nd, one of the worst environments in the league. And note the ceiling on that: quarterback is this team's relative strength and still only ranks 31st. Relative strength is not strength.
What the market believes, and whether it is wrong
Every roster in the league is priced twice: once at the market's ranks and once at the model's, both converted to expected fantasy points a game through the empirical price curve — what a player at that rank has actually returned, 2016–2025. Ranks are not linear in value, so summing them would flatter deep rosters and undersell top-heavy ones; points are.
The claim is available here. Priced at market ranks this roster is the 27th most valuable in the league; priced at the model's ranks it is 15th. That is a 12-place gap in the model's favour, and the roster's own disagreements point the same way. This offense is underpriced.
The biggest individual disagreements on this roster: Breece Hall (-24) and Garrett Wilson (+4).
What offenses like this one have produced
Take the 2026 forecast — 17.8 points, 59.5% pass rate, 58.5 snaps, 2.6 red-zone trips — and find the 30 most similar offenses among all 320 team-seasons from 2016 to 2025. Closest matches: Las Vegas Raiders 2018 (18.1 PPG, 1 starters); Houston Texans 2022 (17.0 PPG, 0 starters); Green Bay Packers 2017 (20.0 PPG, 1 starters); New York Giants 2024 (16.1 PPG, 1 starters).
Those offenses produced a top-12 quarterback 3% of the time, two top-24 backs 43%, three top-36 receivers 60%, and a top-12 tight end 13%. That is where the starter count below comes from — it is measured off comparable offenses, not asserted.
Read off the 30 most similar offenses in 2016–2025, not asserted. A starter is a QB1, an RB2, a WR3 or a TE1 — top 12, 24, 36 and 12 at the position. Across all 320 team-seasons the average offense produced 2.6.
The player board
No player on this roster clears the bar as a buy. Breece Hall clears it as a fade.

Market and Model are ranks within the position. Edge is the model's position rank against the market's, after removing the drift that affects every player at that price — so it reads as “the model likes him this many places more than it likes the typical player who costs this much.” A call needs the edge to clear the position's bar (QB 7, RB 13, WR 11, TE 5 places), set at two-thirds of that position's own spread.
The three decisions
What would make this page wrong
- The pass-run balance doesn't move. The forecast has pass rate going +7.4 points to 59.5%. That shift is doing real work in the quarterback grade above.
- The price gap closes before you draft. The 12-place gap is measured against today's board; ADP moves through August.
The one thing to watch in-season
Watch red-zone trips per game. The forecast has it at 2.6 against 2.2 last season, and it is the input moving furthest from what this offense actually did. If it holds through the first month, the starter count on this page holds with it. If it snaps back, everything downstream of the forecast — the environment grades, the capacity number, the calls — moves with it.
