“Unlikely, but not impossible. All it takes is one team getting antsy about a prospect it desperately wants. The Jets would like to pick up a third-round pick in this draft since they don\u2019t currently have one, as well as add more 2027 picks,” Rosenblatt wrote. “If the Titans (No. 4) want to jump ahead of the Cardinals (No. 3) to get an edge rusher like Arvell Reese or David Bailey, they\u2019d be a potential spot for a trade-down. <\/p>\n
“The Giants (No. 5) and Commanders (No. 7) might be duking it for the right to draft Love. It would take a blockbuster deal to go back any further than that, though the Cowboys (No. 12) are always liable to make a splash and they own two first-round picks in this draft.”<\/p>\n
Trading down could help the Jets decide between Arvell Reese and David Bailey. <\/p>\n
They could move down to pick No. 3 or pick No. 4, which could land them a solid amount of draft capital while staying in the top five.<\/p>\n
Whichever team trades up to pick No. 2 will likely take one of these two edge rushers. The Jets could drop a few picks and land somebody like Sonny Styles or Caleb Downs if Bailey and Reese come off the board.<\/p>\n
The gap between the No. 2 player in the class and the No. 10 player in the class isn’t that big. The Jets will likely explore trade options with all their draft picks this offseason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The New York Jets have two selections in the first round of the NFL draft this year and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":862152,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2051],"tags":[7,226,1917,255,2321,2097,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-862151","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-jets","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-jets","10":"tag-new-york","11":"tag-new-york-jets","12":"tag-newyork","13":"tag-newyorkjets","14":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116373630078043379","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862151","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=862151"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/862151\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/862152"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=862151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=862151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=862151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
