Default Jets are willing to trade their 1st pick for Michael Turner.

Scout.com reports "sources familiar with the Chargers" believe the Jets are willing to trade their first-round pick for Michael Turner.
Turner, a restricted free agent, isn't even under contract with San Diego, but this appears to be a possibility once he's tendered. The Jets would then explore signing him long term. San Diego is reportedly now looking at running back prospects, possibly Penn State's Tony Hunt.

Turner is worth More than just a 1st round pick. If the Jets only had to give up a 1st, they'd be getting a steal. The Chargers should hold out for a 1st and 3rd because the Jets are desperate for a RB capable of pounding the ball the way Turner is.

Link???

This is weird that they are easily willing to just give their pick up for a 25 year old albeit a great player.

San Diego gets another pick?

Man that team is absolutely loaded with enough talent to win super bowls for the next 6 years.

FWIW they also said that Dillon wants to return and the Patriots have to decide if he's worth the upcoming cap hit to keep him.

I knew Turner would be good, because the highlights of his speed were freaking sick. I dunno about giving up a first rounder though.

I love Dillon but the Pats would rather get rid of a player 1 year sooner rather than 1 yr later when his time is up. Football is a cold business

You would have to guess Turner would do well but he wouldn't be the first RB to do well as a 5-10 carry a game guy and not be so good carrying the full load.

I hope they keep him another year, he still has a 5-10 carry a game role on the team, IMO, and they wouldn't save a lot by cutting him.
