Report: Jets Agree to Trade Zach Wilson This Offseason

[JetNation]

A report from the Deseret news out of Utah claims that the New York Jets have let quarterback Zach Wilson know that the team will look to trade him this offseason.

Sources: Jets will trade Zach Wilson after the season

Looking to trade Wilson should come as no surprise given his tumultuous time in Green and White.  The question the Jets will face this offseason is what any potential suitors would be willing to offer.  Given his struggles, it’s hard to see more than a handful of teams showing any interest at all.  However, Wilson’s ceiling and the Jets long history of not being able to develop quarterbacks could pique somebody’s interest.

Through three seasons with Gang Green, Wilson looks nothing like the player he was at BYU.  A quick decision-maker with pinpoint accuracy in college, Wilson has devolved into a quarterback who holds on to the football for far too long, takes too many unnecessary sacks and appears unwilling to throw the ball down the field.

What other teams will wonder however, is whether or not Wilson’s struggles are entirely down to his ability, or if the Jets coaching and atrocious supporting staff played a bigger role than some may be willing to acknowledge.

Similiar to the Houston qb where they traded him and gave the team a 2nd rounder?

can’t think of his name

of course he had a big contract but you ain’t getting much of anything for zachary

Brock Osweiler.

Next 5 games for Zach are about trade value.  Maybe he can prove he is worth something more than a bag of balls or a few kicking tees.

[Ghost420]

How delusional is this franchise if they think Wilson has trade value 

[SomebodytoAnybody47]

THEE desert news?!

[southparkcpa]

JD is a terrible GM, terrible evaluator of talent.  

[Trotter]

The result was inevitable and the only option really short of just cutting him however, I need @Matt39 to confirm or deny this

he seems to have all the inside info with Zach, woody, the uncle JetBlue etc

I agree, it took Woody being back to get the 22 draft

Joe Douglas may be the worst GM is Jet history...

Which will put him high up in the running for worst GM Worldwide.

[Asymmetrical]

based on the timing, choice of publication and tone of this story..  this is maybe coming from Zach's family which would just be a treat

Yea, I don't know how trustworthy this 'source' is. Deseret News is the only site that has gotten information about this and it spends the whole time sucking up to Zach and talking about how he "got kicked to the curb by the New York Jets".

However, it would explain why Zach is starting. They want to showcase him in a lost season.

[CanadienJetsFan]

Someone tell Rodgers that there’s another leak.

Who’s the rat?

Ha Jay Glazer, who’s as iron clad as it gets had  the Jets moving on last year. Then Uncle Woody stepped in. The issue with Zach is he’s Jets royalty and until another team steps up with assets, the Jets have to keep him.

[chirorob]

Who is going to take on his contract for next year?

I'd trade him for a late 7 just to save on the cap

good call. salt lake city publication. I didn't catch that.

[Fantasy Island]

Honestly, which team in the NFL would want him?   No redeeming qualities come to mind.  
 

He will be the next Kaepernick.   

[Larz]

My best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who’s going with a girl who saw a report Zach is getting traded. I guess it’s pretty serious.

[Augustiniak]

And people wonder why he was reluctant to play.  

[LIJetsFan]

If we get any asset on top of clearing the cap space I'll be one happy fella.

Like my golf game…. 85 shots….. 4 or 5 were excellent. Yet, i end up losing every weekend .  A few good picks is your defense????

Our Oline is perhaps the worst in the NFL, our QB situation is awful and our O is awful. Oh…his record????  Please.  

[CanadienJetsFan]

While they’re at it, can they trade Saleh too?

Seriously, I don’t think they’d get any takers for either one.

[NYDreamer]

Here goes the second coming of Steve Young

I don’t remember a team telling a player weeks before the offseason that he’ll be traded? 
 

this feels very odd any prob a bogus report

Especially since nobody else is reporting it, and I doubt Deseret News would be the only place to get it, unless it's straight from Zach himself, which I find unlikely.

It would explain why he's suddenly the starter again, though.

Lisa Wilson wants him traded to the Jazz

[Beerfish]

Niners got a 4th for Trey lance who is no better than zach, maybe a wore resume.  So maybe we an get a 5 or 6 but probably teams will call our bluff and we will cut him

[K Clue]

Zach holds absolutely no trade value what so ever. 

[Arsis]

Did the other teams agree?
