The Jets need players who fit in Adam Gase’s offensive scheme and these five free agents fit the bill.

WR Randall Cobb

Cobb isn’t as productive, consistent or good a receiver as Sanders, but he’d play well in Gase’s offense for a lot of the same reasons. Cobb finished fourth in receiving yards from the slot in 2019 with 716 and averaged 14.3 yards per reception from that position. 

While Cobb is older – he’ll be 30 in August – he has a better big-play ability than Jamison Crowder. Cobb led all slot receivers with 22 plays of 15-plus yards in 2019 and can penetrate zone defenses better than a lot of pass-catchers. Cobb isn’t as good as he once was with the Packers, but his style of play could be productive with Gase.
