News Now: Following the latest moves, the Jets should consider a former first-round wide receiver as a trade target.

The New York Jets have a new trio of top wide receivers, with budding standout Garrett Wilson joined by free agent acquisition Mike Williams and No. 65 pick Malachi Corley. Allen Lazard has been reduced to WR4 duties. Even with this new addition, the Jets should be on the lookout for more perimeter skill.

The Jets lost one of their primary free agent targets when veteran Tyler Boyd signed with the Tennessee Titans, reuniting with former Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan. The Titans’ big three of DeAndre Hopkins, Calvin Ridley, and Boyd may push a previous first-round pick out of the picture.

Treylon Burks, a former Arkansas star, appears to be on the outside looking in with this move. The former first-round pick was an ineffective replacement for AJ Brown, but he could be a worthy gamble for the Jets if he becomes available.

Burks might be traded as soon as the Boyd contract is finalized, since it makes no sense for the Titans to allow someone of his caliber wither away. Given Williams’ injury troubles and Corley’s inexperience, New York could be a good place for Burks to get back on track in the pros.

The New York Jets may explore trading Treylon Burks after Tyler Boyd’s signing. Burks has only one touchdown in his two professional seasons, with 49 catches and 665 yards. His often shaky route-running and lack of impressive speed have both hampered the chiseled 6-2, 225-pound receiver’s long-term success in the league.

Burks had the displeasure of playing alongside Ryan Tannehill, who was on the 18th hole of his professional career. The continually shifting offensive plans probably did not help him adjust to life in the pros. Todd Downing, the Jets’ quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator, helped Burks average 40 yards per game as a rookie in Tennessee.

Adding Burks would create a rivalry between him and Corley for the No. 3 spot. Even if he wins this struggle and relegates Corley to WR4, a fully developed Burks might someday replace Williams on the outside, with Corley behind him.

Burks is a dart thrower who bets on his tools, but anyone calling his career over after only two seasons is stupid. Tennessee’s loss may easily become New York’s benefit.
