The New York Jets and Tennessee Titans' pass defenses were routinely punished deep last season, but not because they have inferior cornerback play. They have mediocre safeties and not very many of them. Both teams tried to shore up depth in that area late in the sixth round, with the Jets taking Wake Forest safety Josh Bush and the Titans taking Oklahoma State free safety Markelle Martin.
