BREAKING: New York Jets TRADE Michael Carter & Acquire John Metchie + A Pick Swap!

Yes. Yes. The New York Jets just made an awesome trade, right? Darren Muji is packaging Michael Carter and a 2027 seventhround draft pick to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for wide receiver John Mechi, former Alabama star, and a 2027 sixthround pick. So, what Muji just did was he traded away a player that I don’t believe is here going to be here for the long term. I do believe he would have been a cap casualty after the season ends. He’s one of the highest paid slot corners in football and he’s not the best slot corner on the team. We already have his replacement in Jarvis Brown Lee, right? In the weeks leading up to the trade deadline, the one thing I kept on, you know, mentioning over and over again. I’m okay moving on from Michael Carter for I don’t want to say basically anything, but you know, if it’s a late run pick, if it’s a future pick, I’m fine with it. Why? Because I’m really concerned about that contract moving forward. I’m concerned about his recent play. Just going to be honest, through the first fourish games of the NFL season. He looked unplayable and I hate to say it because I really like Michael Carter the person. I love his story. Come day three pick out of Duke. Comes in is feisty. He’s making an impact as a rookie and Roberts defense in the slop you know slot corner nickel quarterback that whole position is very very tough. You know you right let like it is you have to be light on your feet. You have to be feisty. You have to be able to actually contribute in run support. Like slot corner is difficult to just step in and just instantly produce. And Michael Carter did that for, you know, the first couple years of his NFL career. So, I’m wishing him nothing but the best over in Philadelphia, right? I thank him for his time with the Jets. And again, I hope he goes to Philly and balls. I hope, you know, he has immense success. But I have to put my fandom aside. I have to look at things objectively. And objectively speaking, Michael Carter looked unplayable through the first four games of the NFL season. And at that price tag, again, one of the top highest paid slot corners in football for that level of production, that is a huge margin. That that is a huge huge difference there. And that is a problem if you’re a general manager who did not draft that player, who did not give Michael Carter that extension to look at that contract equals, you know, it should equal similar sort of production. And that simply wasn’t the case with Michael Carter. Throw on top of it that in exchange for a pick swap, we go out and we land an upgrade in Jarvis Brownley, a young player who can continue to get better, a player who already fits the Aaron Glenn system, the Steve Wils defense. He has this, you know, uh, aggressive, violent personality, which I really like, which I think the Jets desperately need on this team. He comes in and is an instant upgrade immediately. We all felt his presence against the Denver Broncos. So, again, that’s why I was okay with, hey, we can move on for Michael Carter. We don’t have to, you know, now invest assets into replacing Michael Carter. You know, it’s not like trading away Bree Hall or Jermaine Johnson or Quinnon where it’s just like, okay, now that player’s leaving and now we have to potentially use the picks that we’re getting back in return to now fix that position. No, Brownley’s already an upgrade. Brownley’s already an upgrade. And so again, Darren Muji is moving on from this player. We’re getting the better of the draft picks. We’re going from a seventh to the sixth. I kind of figured it would be the other way around. We’re getting a sixthrounder here, albeit it’s in the future in 2027, and we’re attacking the biggest position of need on this football team, wide receiver. Now, to be fair, John Mchi, I don’t want to make it sound like we’ve just acquired Justin Jefferson, Jamar Chase up to this point, you know, specifically this season. It’s not like Mechi is lighting the world on fire or anything like that, but man, you look at him as a prospect. What is he? 6′ 185 pounds. One of my favorite favorite things about Mchi, very very very quick feet. He was always this balanced uh balanced ball carrier, right? When you watched him on the sidelines being able to tiptoe, tiptoe, tiptoe, and he stays in bounds and picks up another 15 yards. Watching him work over the middle of the field, I think he is a very, very interesting prospect to add to this room that desperately needs help. So, in essence, macro perspective, Darren Muji has moved on from a player that quite frankly, we did not need. I’m going to assume that Philadelphia is going to be taking on the majority of this contract. So, we’re going to be saving money now, and we’re going to be saving money in the long run. We already have his replacement, so we don’t need to worry about investing a future contract, investing, you know, a draft pick, a second round pick, a fourth round pick, and a nickel corner. No, it’s already done and handled. And we’ve also taken a flyer on a young wide receiver. What is he 25 years old? Think about this too for a second, right? There were also rumors connecting Mechi to the New York Jets before he was traded to Philadelphia. So the Jets have had their eye on Meti for quite some time. You know, you take a look at some of these other um acquisitions, these other trades that the Jets have made. Jawan Briggs has worked out. He’s looked awesome. Harrison Phillips, as expected, not been disappointing whatsoever. And we’ve talked a lot about Jarvis Bran Lee here. You know, throw on top of it Mason Taylor coming onto the scene, Arman Meu coming onto the scene, Malachi Moore, Francisco Maloa, day three prospects that are or day three draft picks that are looking pretty solid, looking like they belong. Are they perfect? No. Do they still have a lot of room left to go to be consistent NFL pros? Yes, obviously. But for day three rookies, they are producing. Darren Muji has been here literally less than a year, a handful of months, nine, ten months, Darren Muji got the job and he’s brought in that many players in one swoop in a not so great free agency class. Yeah, I I feel comfortable with Dar Muji here. I I’m a big fan of what Dar Muji has done so far, you know, through his uh Jets tenure. So, man, oh man, what a trade here. What a trade from Daruji. And um you know, again, I was thinking maybe just a pick swap, but we get a pick swap and a young player at the worst position on the team at wide receiver. So, I am freaking fired up. Let’s go. Let me know your thoughts down below in the comments section. And as always, go Jets.

Darren Mougey and the New York Jets have traded CB Michael Carter and 2027 7th round pick to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for WR John Metchie and a 2027 6th draft pick! LOVE the move here from the Jets!
