Spencer Ware has a lot more name recognition than many others in this slideshow, but as far as the Jets' interests are concerned, he is not somebody who has been linked to the team much at all.
While the Jets need to focus on game-breakers on the offensive side of the ball, they will still be in the market for a tough runner once Shonn Greene is gone.
Ware could be just the candidate.?
The 5'11", 225-pound Ware is going to rank near the bottom of the running backs in his 40 time at the combine, but he has the ability to rank near the top in strength categories.
Ware is no lock to be drafted at all right now, but he will be with someone come August.
While he isn't a true fullback, Ware could be a useful short-yardage runner and a power back to complement a team that lacks such a player.
If the Jets draft a player like Eddie Lacy early, Ware might not fit into the Jets plans. However, if they choose a speed back to add alongside Bilal Powell and Joe McKnight, Ware could fill a role.
The Jets took a chance on Terrance Ganaway at last year's draft, and that didn't work out. Keep a slight interest in Ware during the combine as he could turn up on the Jets radar if they look for a late-round power runner again.
