New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan said Tuesday, April 30, that there is a possibility that drafting DT Sheldon Richardson could knock DL Quinton Coples out to an edge rusher position. Ryan worked Coples out as an outside linebacker at the NFL Scouting Combine in 2012.
Our View: The addition of Richardson gives the Jets more options on the D-Line. Coples has multiple pass rushing moves to get after the QB. He has the strength and length to bullrush around Tackles and gains ground quickly because of his size.
