We are inching closer and closer to a decision on the New York Jets quarterback situation.
Once that domino falls, the rest of the offseason will come into full focus for the green and white. Our pair of experts Paul Esden Jr and filter through the latest buzz and rumors to provide you with the latest insight.
Big Time Warnings, Who Will Be Jets QB2?
1. If you had the ability to warn the Jets about a free agent they should avoid on the open market, who would it be and why?
MO:
I’ll say an expensive wide receiver like Odell Beckham Jr.
Now, I’m not saying he’s been linked to the Jets because as far as I know, he hasn’t, but OBJ would be the last thing the Jets need. This team already has plenty of hungry mouths to feed and with a better quarterback, they should thrive in doing so.
I want to see Garrett Wilson and Elijah Moore and Tyler Conklin. I want to see Breece Hall and Michael Carter out of the backfield. The Jets don’t need an expensive, injury-prone, overdramatic wideout coming in and complaining about targets.
Boy Green:
Oof so MO is not a fan of OBJ. Maybe he doesn’t like other people that are addressed by their initials.
While there haven’t been any directly sourced insiders that have said OBJ and the Jets in the same sentence. There was a lot of buzz created when Sauce Gardner had Odell Beckham Jr on his video game stream earlier this offseason.
Ohhh baby: CB Ahmad Gardner () was hanging out playing some video games w/ free agent WR Odell Beckham Jr () this week 👀👀👀 some recruiting perhaps? 🤔🧐🤷🏽♂️
— Paul Andrew Esden Jr ()
Does this mean something? Nothing? Who knows but it is interesting nonetheless.
I would love to see OBJ back in New York especially if you pair him with a star quarterback. However, to go along with the premise of the question, I’ll say Carson Wentz. No, just no thank you that would be a disaster.
2. Who is the perfect QB2 for the Jets in 2023?
MO:
Assuming you’re bringing in a veteran QB to start, I think the QB2 should be a battle between Zach Wilson and a mid-to-late-round rookie.
