Even if Dee Milliner is healthy, the Jets will be in the market for at least one starting outside cornerback who can compete with Marcus Williams for the starting job.

Antonio Cromartie

Could a reunion between Cromartie and the Jets happen? It may not be as crazy as it sounds. His best years are behind him at age 30, but he proved the Jets wrong from a health standpoint by starting in all 16 games for the Arizona Cardinals this season. He even looked pretty good doing it. He allowed just two touchdown passes all year, according to Pro Football Focus (subscription required).

The rebuilding Jets may not be the ideal landing place for a veteran like Cromartie, but if the price is right, he can at least stop the bleeding at a position that needs immediate help.

Tramon Williams

One of the top cornerbacks on the market in a thin class, Tramon Williams is not going to be cheap—but if any team is in desperate need for a starting outside cornerback with the cash on hand to afford him, it is the Jets.

Byron Maxwell

Byron Maxwell may be the least-known member of the Legion of Boom, but the Seattle Seahawk offers a lot in terms of sheer size (6'1", 207 lbs) and length. His status as a No. 2 cornerback limits his price, making him a nice fallback option in case the Jets miss out on a player like Williams.

Kareem Jackson

The former first-round pick out of Alabama had a rough first few seasons as a pro, but Kareem Jackson has finally settled into his role as a starting cornerback for the Houston Texans as of late. The 10th-ranked cornerback on Pro Football Focus is having his best season just in time for a new contract—enough so to make a buyer beware of investing heavily in a player who only appears to play well when a contract is on the line.
