The New York Jets, by all accounts, came away with a steal when they stole away cornerback Jarvis Brownlee from the Tennessee Titans for the low cost of swapping a sixth-round pick for a seventh-rounder. The trade earned sparkling grades from the pundits, but even more telling was the outrage amongst Titans fans.
Not only did the Jets acquire an upgrade in coverage over incumbent starters, Brandon Stephens and nickelback Michael Carter II, but they got a superb run defender who relishes exacting violence against opposing ball carriers.
That will be a huge boost to the unit as soon as Brownlee is ready to take the field, and when he does, he'll find an unexpected partner with whom he'll combine to form one of the best run support duos among NFL corners.
