Perine is listed second on the Jets' initial unofficial depth chart behind Tevin Coleman.
It's good to see Perine ahead of Ty Johnson, but he's realistically behind both Coleman and rookie Michael Carter. While Carter surprisingly is listed fourth here, his frequent reps with the first-team offense and glowing reviews from the coaching staff suggest it's a matter of when -- not if -- he moves up the depth chart. There were some worries that Perine would be a cut candidate after a forgettable rookie season, but he should have no trouble securing a roster spot given his placement on the depth chart.
