Sam Darnold has struggled through his first two years behind one of the NFL’s worst offensive lines, and the Jets haven’t done enough to protect or support him. Upgrading from right guard Brian Winters would do a lot to help out the face of their franchise, but Warford might be, at worst, a lateral move. Even if that ends up being the case, Gang Green must consider every option to improve at such a critical stage in Darnold’s career.

The Jets have the cap space to keep both Warford and Winters on the roster and let the best player start, but they could also cut Winters (who is in the last year of his deal) to help mitigate Warford’s cap hit. They also own at least one pick in each round of next year’s draft, plus conditional selections in rounds six (via New England Patriots) and seven (from the Seattle Seahawks).
