QB Aaron Rodgers‘ Jets career got off to a rocky start after he tore his Achilles 4 plays into the 2023 season. The Jets went 7-10 and finished 3rd in the AFC East. They signed longtime Dallas Cowboys OT Tyron Smith to shore up the offensive line. Gang Green also signed former LA Chargers WR Mike Williams to play opposite of dynamite WR Garrett Wilson. They took LB Will McDonald IV from Iowa State with the 15th overall pick.
The 49ers went 12-5 in the regular season last year and came up just short, falling 25-22 in overtime to the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII. QB Brock Purdy emerged from Mr. Irrelevant to lead the team to its 2nd Super Bowl appearance in 4 years. After a drama-laden offseason, the team retained and extended WR Brandon Aiyuk and took WR Ricky Pearsall 31st overall in the 2024 NFL Draft, although he is recovering after being shot during a robbery against him.
