20. player. 30. <p>The Jets defense is a shell of what it once was, and with defensive minded head coach Todd Bowles at the helm, they should be looking to return to defensive prominence.</p> <p>Michigan State defensive end Shilique Calhoun would most likely be moved to the outside linebacker position in Bowles’ system, and is best suited in the position at the NFL level than he is as a down lineman.</p> <p>Calhoun possesses great speed which he uses to beat blockers around the edge, or turns speed into momentum and powers over weaker linemen.</p> <p>Adding his talents to the Jets defense would help New York take strides to build off of last season’s surprisingly good showing.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Previously:  Carson Wentz – QB – North Dakota State</strong></p>. DE. Michigan State. Shilique Calhoun
