Quinnen going #1 makes our pick so much more valuable
He shook my hand breed tub and walked away

24 hours ago, there was a sense the Jets wouldn't be able to trade down for a deal to their liking. Now, 3 GMs that I touched base with think the Jets definitely will trade out of No. 3 as long as Nick Bosa is not available. But they don't believe it will be with the Redskins

Piece of excrement or not.  Manish is usually right

If top 2 picks go as expected - Murray and Bosa - have now had 2 GMs tell me they believe the Bills could move to 3 to land Quinnen Williams. NYJ have not been shy about their zeal to trade down.

Why in all the football hells would the Jets trade down with the Bills?
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well

Because they want to trade up, and when one team wants to trade up, and another team wants to trade down, they make a trade...

I don't care which team we trade down with. I just want to trade down. Trade down, collect some extra picks, and get more opportunities to bolster the roster. Who cares if it's the Bills, Patriots or Giants? Maybe if it were a QB, I would care, but it's not.

I'm 100% in favor of trading with the Giants. The stupid non-conference rivalry is meaningless to me.

But I'll never be okay with trading a high draft pick to the Patriots, Bills, or Dolphins. Why would I want to give any of those teams an opportunity to draft a player who could terrorize us at least twice a year for a decade? Absolutely not.

No surprise here but #Jets working on potential trade back deals to acquire multiple day 2 picks, while not dropping too far

Connor Rogers

“Not far” needs to mean still securing one of Bosa, Allen, Quinnen, or Oliver

Sounds like there’s a pretty good chance the #Jets trade down. One team already under the impression the Jets have a deal worked out with another team if Q Williams is available at 3. Keep an eye on Buffalo (9). Jets could get edge rusher or OLM in trade down.

The whole point of making a trade is if you think it makes your team better.

Why would I not jump at the opportunity to take multiple draft picks from the Bills in a trade-up, so they can go all-in on a defensive lineman?

Especially if they drop to 9. They're definitely getting a 2nd round pick this year plus more, and maybe even a 1st-round pick next season, which would be amazing. And they can probably still get a guy like Jawaan Taylor or Brian Burns. Taylor gives us someone to protect Darnold, which is the most important thing this team can do, and Burns may be as good an edge rusher as anyone we can get at 3.

I love the idea of trading down, but not thrilled with:

A) Trading with a conference opponent, don't want Williams killing Darnold for the next decade
B) Duff's ability to pick players outside the no brainer's

Who cares if we give the Bills a potentially elite defensive linemen if we get a ransom for it, and they still have Josh Allen as their starting QB
