FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets went into free agency last March with money to burn and several holes to fill. That can be a dangerous combination for losing teams in the NFL, so they scribbled "focus points" on a whiteboard in their war room -- three reminders to help them find the right players amid the bidding madness:
1. Love of game
2. Durability
3. What do they bring to help us win? Upgrade?
The Jets wound up doling out $93 million in fully guaranteed dollars, the fifth-highest amount last offseason, according to Over the Cap.
