NY Jets could ignite dream offseason with this unexpected trade

The 2022 offseason is shaping up to be the New York Jets‘ most pivotal one in the last handful of years.

New York is stockpiled with ammunition to make big moves. An estimated $60 million in cap space and five draft picks in the top 70 provide unbound flexibility for general manager Joe Douglas.

Following a four-win season, the Jets are in desperate need of more talent – potentially desperate enough even for Douglas to abandon his usually cautious, calculated approach, and instead swing for the fences.

In particular, an unexpected trade might just be the home run the Jets are looking for: tackle George Fant for Panthers’ receiver D.
