Five things New York Jets could have (should have?) done rather than draft QB Zach Wilson | Opinion

The New York Jets have spent the better part of five decades trying to replace Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath. The ongoing endeavor has met with varying degrees of success, though no one has been able to fill Joe Willie's white cleats capably enough to lead the NYJ to their first championship – one famously guaranteed by Namath – since that seismic defeat of the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl 3 to cap the 1968 season.

That brings us to the latest would-be gang leader in green, Zach Wilson. He hasn't even completed two NFL seasons but is already strongly trending toward Wannabe Wilson and away from Broadway Zach.
