Cowboys Surprise Benching Could Lead to Offseason Departure; 3 Fits Emerge

3. New York Jets

The Justin Fields experiment has been a disaster, as the team benched the former first-round pick for career journeyman Tyrod Taylor. This means the Jets will have yet another new face under center next year, and the organization must do something to ensure the next quarterback has a fair shot to succeed.

First-round pick Armand Membou has been everything the Jets could have hoped for, and the team has a good wide receiver in Garrett Wilson. However, the depth behind Wilson leaves a lot to be desired, and signing George Pickens from the Dallas Cowboys would give the team two reliable weapons for their next quarterback. Receivers alone don’t make a quarterback, but this duo should bring out the best in whoever starts next year.
