Phillies QB trade rumors should lead to deal with New York Jets originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The New York Jets have said plenty of times now that if a quarterback is out there for them to go after who they think can make an impact for the organization in the short and long term, they're going to make the necessary move to add said player.
I don't necessarily agree with the Jets going out there to make a play just to make a play, but if they can land a decent quarterback who doesn't require them to move on from a whole lot, there are far worse situations to be in.
That's why the latest prediction of Tanner McKee being traded from the Philadelphia Eagles should be of interest to New York.
“Let's start with the obvious here. The Eagles could potentially receive a high Day 3 pick for McKee, who is in a competition with Andy Dalton for the QB2 job. Basing off what reporters saw in OTAs and minicamp, Dalton got the majority of QB2 reps over McKee. This was a job that was believed to be McKee's, but the Eagles appear to have other plans.
“McKee is in the last year of his rookie contract, so that factors into the equation. Teams need an upgrade at QB2 and McKee provides that. Doesn't appear this is a situation if McKee gets traded, but when,” Jeff Kerr wrote.
There have been many reports indicating that McKee could be on the block. Predictions like this would greatly help New York if they prove true.
Not that McKee is a great player, but he's serviceable, and many think that in the right system, he can actually be a starter. With the Jets needing as much help as they can get at the position, I think it would make sense to at least put their hat in the ring.
