There is so much more to football that speed. Sure speed helps a good player but there have been tons of fast players who couldn't play. The reason for the Al Davis comment is that all he saw was size and speed, he never cared about football skills and paid for it. Stephen Hill had loads of speed Again we're talking about guys who can't play. And Hill isn't a rb or a lb

This isn't really the time of the year where impact players can be acquired. There may be some decent players released during final cuts, and if Maccagnan thinks that there's somebody out there who's better than what we have at RB at LB, I'm sure he won't hesitate to pick them up if possible - whether they're fast or not. However, we now have pretty good depth at RB and LB, particularly RB, and it's unlikely that a speedy player will come free who's significantly better than Zac Stacy or Stevan Ridley. I don't think the Saints will be releasing CJ Spiller.
Let's revisit this next offseason.

Most people would assume the achilles heel of the 2015 Jets will be the quarterback (as usual) a bigger need IMO is an increase in overall team speed. Devin Smith will help when he returns in the mean time I think it's a need particularly at running back and outside linebacker. While I don't necessarily disagree with you when it comes to speed (we only really have one true burner, Smith), we have every type of receiver you could want. A big physical receiver (Marshall) , a possession route runner (Decker) a slot guy with slightly above average speed (Kerley) . So maybe we don't have overall speed but we have a fantastic squad. Our Achilles heel is still qb

Need for Speed When asked if he thought his team needed to get younger, Coach Bowles quickly transitioned to another area. “I think we need to get faster – I don’t know about younger. We need to get faster,” he said. “Obviously certain areas, we’re going to have more team speed on the field and that’s always a plus to being a faster team.” BUMP told ya'll

I really don't expect much from the Jets next year - I think from the way that Idziot and Rexus left the state of the team it's going to take time. And yes team speed is one thing but....until we can get a good qb in here, we're just treading water.
