It's officially the offseason for the New York Jets, who finished the 2021 NFL season 4-13. It's a big one for Joe Douglas and Robert Saleh, as the two must get the Jets to take a legitimate step toward being a playoff contender in 2022. Good news: The two have an awful lot of assets to make that happen. On this episode of the Can't Wait Podcast, Connor Hughes and Tim McMaster discuss what needs to happen this offseason, including a potential trade for Falcons' star Calvin Ridley. Also on tap: The Athletic's Dan Brugler joins to discuss Evan Neal, Garrett Wilson, Derek Stingley and other Jets draft targets, why the Jets should be concerned with Mekhi Becton heading into Year 3, how the Jets can fix their secondary, and a preview of the NFL wild-card playoffs.
