MWil23 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I'll trade Washington Wills for Chase Young and Trent Williams. I think that's fair. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like if they had lost their choice of tackle at 10, they'd trade down and use the assets to pull this trade. The smartest move is getting your top guy at 10, for a variety of reasons. Trent was a good fallback plan if that didn't work. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better use of resource is to get a talented tackle and save the 15 million for something else, looking at you Clowney. Willis+Clowney and our third better than Williams and a WR at 10. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have involved a trade down most likely to recoup the draft capital loss from acquiring TW. Neither is a bad plan, but the one that was executed opens up a lot of possibilities even beyond Clowney.

The Jets have a bunch of holes on their roster. the insecurity caused by coronavirus is probably a reason we saw less trades happening in the draft, people played it safe and conservatively., I imgaine teams wanted to trade back, but people didnt want to trade up.

NateDawg Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 It’s also normal SOP not to talk about a player who is on another roster. It would have been weird if DePo talked about Trent tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
