NFL Trade Deadline Discourse

[Give Kraft A Hand]

So the Jets wouldn’t trade in the division, the Titans refused anything from the Pats and the Dolphins wanted multiple picks and a key bump. So I guess this makes sense

 

[Ross12]

I guess the biggest upside for the Pats today is that they will face the Jets twice without Sauce and Williams.

The Pats truly have the easiest schedule in the league. No other team gets 3 bye weeks!

As a fan of the draft, that's like porn. Especially when you consider how good the 2027 draft is looking to be.

Allow me to be the billionth person to say that somehow they'll blow all of those picks.

If you get a chubby every time someone says upside you should seek help lol

I certainly hope so, because if they nail it, that's the haul that turns things around for you.

In 2027 they’ll package all 3 first rounders to move up to get the 1st overall pick to draft a QB, only for that QB to then refuse to play in New Jersey.

This week?

No, this was at the beginning of the season, but they reiterated the desire to trade for Meyers a few weeks ago.

 

[Uptown]

This may be the best trade the Jets have made all day.

Is it conditional upon whether the McChickens have extra mayo or not? If so, I make that deal 11/10 times.

The Jets will be on to their third coach and GM by then.

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

The Jets don't have a 2nd-round pick in 2027?

 

[Huckleberry1]

I think the Jets realize they have to have a franchise QB to ever win anything, so they will either package all the first rounders for the top pick in 27', or they will pick 4 first round quarterbacks and let them fight it out.

No way. I was told that Vrabel was a bad hire, and Aaron Glenn will be a Hall of Fame coach

Yeah although with his $120 million contract extension (which is what Gonzo will want) that's still a shocking move - almost admitting that with the ascension of the Pats and the need to draft a rookie QB next year, they have no shot of contending for the next 4 years and Gardner knows it - the team knows it

So they got two first round draft picks from the Colts - who don't look ready to sniff the Top 10 of the draft board for the next few seasons either

The only way that works is if the top team already feels they have their QBOTF, or they just don't like any of them enough to take them #1 overall.

1. Literally.

2. Put it on hard knocks.

True, but they could still use all of their first round picks on quarterbacks.

Maybe not this year, but a Daniel Jones regression isn't beyond the realms of possibility next.

Right - they sign Sauce Gardner to a $120 million 4 year extension making him the highest paid CB I think (which is what Gonzo wants)

But then they watch as the Pats become contenders along with Buffalo for the next 4 years, know they need to draft a rookie QB for next year, and can't imagine even getting close to breaking their tie with the Houston Oilers for Eastern Division titles for at least another 5 years

Might as well dump salary and pick up the two mid-first round picks from the Colts.

I wouldn't be surprised to see THOSE picks get traded for future draft picks either as they're really looking beyond 5 years to contend.

I'm not being facetious at all - I just don't see them or the Dolphins (who have their own cap nightmare with Tua) giving the Bills or Pats any real competition for at least 4 years

There's a distinct likelihood their own pick in '27 will be the 1st overall. Nothing to say your second option won't still happen though, it's the Jete after all
