Leading up to Late Free Agency the Jets signed their 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th round draft picks.

Jammal Brown, OT, signed a 4 year deal worth $2.18 million.
Alex Smith, TE, signed a 3 year deal worth $1.2 million.
Justin Miller, CB, signed a 3 year, $1.14 million contact.
JJ Arrington, RB, signed a 3 year deal, $1.09 million.

First round pick, Ernest Shazor turned down a 5 year deal worth a reported, $8.77 million.

Second round pick, LeQualan McDonald turned down a reported, 3 year, $2.5 million deal.

The Jets made offers to 3 undrafted free agents, all of who accepted to play for the minimum of $220,000 per season. The players are:
ILB Liam Ezekiel, Northeastern - 6'1" 245 pounds, Ezekeil is a smart player who has a chance of making the team with Vilma primarily playing the weak side, if Ezekiel can impress during preseason, perhahps he can take the spot of the disappointing Victor Hobson who was drafted in the 3rd round, two years ago.
RB Anthony Davis, Wisconsin - 5'8", 194 pounds, Davis played high school football locally, and grew up watching the Jets. The Long Island native now will compete with 7th round draft choice, JJ Arrington for the 3rd running back position. Davis is a long shot, he has good running skills, but lacks the ability to play a part in the passing game or on special teams. He lacks the ideal size for an NFL back.
CB Abraham Eliminien, Hawaii - 5'10", 191 pounds, Eliminien dropped out of the draft after a poor senior year in which he lacks run support. Many figured he would go in the later rounds to become a nickel or dime back, however, at the combine he turned out a poor performance in the agility test. Now, he will try to crack a spot on the roster, perhaps as a return man or to replace a defensive back who goes down with an injury in the preseason.

We still need a kicker, and would feel more comfortable with some experienced depth at linebacker. We will not make offers to any other position at this time.
