The intrigue for mostly settled roster

The Jets are ready to open up the preseason Friday against the Buccaneers, and we’ll get a better idea of how the pieces of the puzzle fit together after that.

It is sometimes difficult to get a read on how players are being evaluated during training-camp practices because you never know whether coaches are working on certain personnel packages or other priorities in a practice. But the games reveal things.

This year’s roster feels pretty straightforward to me, which probably means there are some curveballs I don’t see coming.
