Fields better develop quickly or Russell Wilson could possibly go there but either NY team might try for him as well.
I still think he may retire a Seahawk but Carroll needs to go.

Shaw had a fine rookie year when you consider how hard it was to break into the league at the time. He did come in and play pretty well in 1958 when Unitas was hurt as well.

I think the knee bothered him a lot after he got hurt. His rushing yards were way down. He seemed to lose a lot of confidence as well.

The Jets seemingly like their quarterback and their have a good salary cap situation. Nobody is going to argue Zach Wilson over Russell Wilson but if you think a quarterback you drafted 2nd overall will pan out, then you do not trade him for a guy whose played 10 years already.
