Some mild nerdery: this year's waivers claims.

[Direckshun]

Terez Paylor used to say every year that scouting/personnel departments pride themselves on how many of their team's cuts end up getting claimed by other teams: the obvious implication being that you were able to acquire so much talent, other teams are dying to vulture your overflow.

This year, the Chiefs had one player claimed on waivers: Matt Dickerson.

But look at this list, and one team shockingly stands out:

Buffalo has 3, Minnesota a couple, and a bunch of other teams having one player plucked each.

Except known scouting powerhouse the New York Jets, with six players claimed. My goodness.

I can't ever recall a team having had that many players plucked. This is also coming off the heels of what many people considered to be a grand slam draft class for them.

So either this is all a crapshoot or suddenly the Jets scouting department became the best scouting department in NFL history this offseason.
