20. player. 30. <p>Todd Bowles has just about everything he could want on his New York Jets defense.  A dominant defensive front.  Steady tackling inside linebackers.  Able cover corners and tough, physical safeties.  One thing that is missing though is an outside linebacker who is a legitimate threat as a pass rusher.  Thus far they haven’t been able to find one, even dating back to the Rex Ryan era.</p> <p>So the team takes a calculated risk.  Noah Spence has had well-documented problems off-the-field.  Problems that got him kicked out at Ohio State and forced him to finish college at Eastern Kentucky.  Since then though he’s remained clean and proceeded to dominate the competition.  A true big fish in a small pond.  He has that size-athleticism-quickness ratio to rush from a two-point stance and boasts legitimate capability to become a double digit sack producer.  Provided of course he can stay out of trouble.</p>. OLB. Eastern Kentucky. Noah Spence
