Hall gets $15.25 million a year on the deal, third among running backs behind Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey.

Frank Reich is in as OC, the skill group has been overhauled, and Gang Green is rubbing their hands together at the thought of what the new-look offense could look like.

Here, we size up Hall's value, take stock of the revamped skill group, and work out whether quarterback Geno Smith is capable of helping them reach their ceiling.

Breece Hall: worth every penny?

Let's be honest: Hall had a quietly excellent 2025 that didn't get nearly the attention it deserved, until now.

He carried the rock 243 times for 1,065 yards behind mediocre run blocking, finished ninth among all tailbacks with 350 receiving yards, and finished top ten in first downs and yards per route run.

Reich has already said he wants to "find ways to be dynamic in the passing game," and while the new rookies might be the first thought that comes to mind, Hall is a piece of that puzzle too.

The other skill players: top talent and scary potential

Hall's backups, holdovers Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis, are very capable of spelling Hall and even sharing the load should he miss any time.

But the most significant 'addition' is the return of receiver Garrett Wilson, who barely played last year after injuring his knee.

He'll be locked in and ready to resume his knack for eclipsing 1,000 receiving yards each year when healthy.

The Jets drafted Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq 16th overall and former Indiana wideout Omar Cooper Jr. 30th overall, making them the first franchise to take a WR and TE in the first round since the 1969 Rams.

Sadiq, as he made clear at the Combine, is ridiculously athletic and will pair with the underrated Mason Taylor to provide New York with the kind of tight end talent it hasn't had in years.

Cooper's physicality and ability after the catch are outstanding, and Adonai Mitchell fills out a group that looks completely unrecognisable from what was on the field last year.

Depth, however, is a concern because while Taylor will feature until Sadiq gets up to speed at tight end, there are no proven wideouts behind Cooper, meaning the pressure is on for him to start fast.

The offensive line: great bookends; weak interior

Olumuyiwa Fashanu has work to do as a run blocker, but he made strides in pass protection, and in combination with Armand Membou, the Jets have two of the most exciting offensive tackles in football.

Neither is the finished article yet, but at 23 and 22, respectively, their best football should be ahead of them.

The interior is where it gets a little uncomfortable.

Right guard Joe Tippmann is inconsistent at best, center Josh Myers is somewhat of a liability, and Dylan Parham, brought in to replace the departed John Simpson at left guard, took a backward step last year.

Frank Reich and the Geno Smith problem

Reich went 35-35 as a head coach, which sounds underwhelming, but that's not what he was hired to do.

His task, in his own words, is to "Take what looks on the surface like a difficult situation and figure out how to get it done, knowing that it can get done."

His confidence is admirable, but the quarterback he's working with will test his ability.

Former Raider Geno Smith threw more picks than anyone in the NFL last year, and yes, 55 sacks behind a terrible line will do that to a quarterback, but his decision-making remains a concern.

A better line, better weapons, and Reich in his corner should theoretically produce a better version of Smith in 2026, and he deserves the benefit of the doubt given those circumstances.

The 35-year-old is excited to put the 2025 season behind him.

But the truth is, unless Smith proves last year was an anomaly, it looks like he'll be the ceiling of this offense.

The verdict: best Jets offense in years?

The talent is there, headlined by Hall, Wilson, Sadiq, Cooper, and a pair of capable tackles with the potential to become one of the league's best duos.

If the rookies deliver quickly, the tackles make their leap, and Geno Smith plays closer to his 2022 form than his 2025 form, this Jets offense can not only improve but also surprise the cynics.

And if Smith can't deliver and rookie Cade Klubnik doesn't develop into the answer, the 2027 draft class is loaded with quarterbacks who could complete what GM Darren Mougey is building here.
