Preston: Rebuilding Jets have a Ravens flavor, and GM Eric DeCosta has taken notice

The New York Jets have a Ravens flavor, one that impresses Baltimore general manager Eric DeCosta but does not concern him.

During this offseason, the Jets have made former Ravens national scout Joe Douglas their general manager and recently added two more former Ravens front office assistants in Chad Alexander and Phil Savage. Alexander, the Ravens’ assistant director of pro and college personnel for the past nine seasons, is New York’s director of player personnel, and Savage was named a senior adviser to Douglas.

Only Alexander’s departure will have a significant impact on the Ravens because he was still under contract.
