NFL rumors: 3 teams that need DeAndre Hopkins trade to contend

2. New Jersey Jets

Similar to the Patriots, the New York Jets struggled to compete in the AFC East, finishing with a 7-10 record. In response to another disappointing season, they have made it clear that they want to add a high-impact veteran quarterback and have been heavily linked to Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers. Although acquiring an excellent quarterback like Rodgers will certainly help the Jets compete, they also would be wise to improve at the wide receiver position by bringing in Hopkins.

There is no question that the AFC East is tough, as the Buffalo Bills are a favorite, while the Miami Dolphins and Patriots are also solid. Therefore, now is the time for the Jets to have a big offseason, so bringing in Hopkins should be on their agenda.
