Cmartin Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 NFL.com alluded to the notion this past week that Jeff Fisher and the Rams may be willing to move out of the number two spot on draft day. The Jets have enough picks to trade in order to move into that slot. Sammy Watkins anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Il Mostro Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 No way this happens -- and no way the Jets should trade up to the #2 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanInDenver Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I do not expect trades before the draft. But sometimes during the draft a team higher up with a NEED may not mind trading down without getting complete value when they know the player they are targeting will be available lower down the order. Case in point last years draft Dolphins traded up with the Raiders all the way to the No. 3 overall pick for No. 12 overall pick and the No. 42 overall pick in the swap. I do not think that evens out in the draft value charts. But Raiders desperately wanted to trade down and get more picks. They settled for less than fair value. The good thing in this draft is there are many QB needy teams in the Top 10 that may not see a QB prospect available where they pick that is worthy of a Top 10 pick and they may want to trade down desperately because they could still get the same QB lower down and add a Top 90 pick. So there is a possibility the JETS could trade up with the likes of Vikings if Sammy Watkins is still available without giving up the house. But even that slim possibility can only come into play once the clock starts ticking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbanmadmike1 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Do you know what it would take to trade up to 2? Their whole draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SayNoToDMC Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Do you know what it would take to trade up to 2? Their whole draft. It's worth it, I'd even throw in next year's first to make sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better2bgreenthanblue Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Watkins looks like a rare talent. We can only dream, maybe our 1st and Deckers wife for a long weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Guys, Sammy Watkins makes us instant contenders. Without him we have no hope this season. Get it done Woody! Obviously not. But if he were to fall to 7-8 I think the Jets would consider it. Having Sammy Watkins on the roster would not be a negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he starts to fall, no question. Don't think you can give up 2 1s and a 2 for him, which is what it would probably take to go from 18 to 2.

stoicsentry Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 If he drops to 7-8, I would be looking at the possibility of trading up for him. This draft is deep with receivers, but Sammy Watkins is probably the only one that you could insert into your lineup and feel confident that he's a long-term starter from day 1. He's the closest thing to a sure bet. After years with a terrible offense, it would be a sight for sore eyes to see Watkins, Decker and Kerley out there together.

jetfan4hire Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Id love for the Jets to have Watkins but I just think the depth at WR this year is really good so I don't think the jets would pay the price it would cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Jets fan Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 No way it happens but wouldnt it be nice just once to have a real top WR on this team for just once? I know its a deep WR draft but your not getting a potential super star later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAD_Brooklyn Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 If we trade with the Rams it better be for Clowney and only Clowney. Watkins isn't that good over his replacement to be chosen number two especially with guys like Marquise Lee in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Still rather just wait for Cooks to fall to the 18th pick. Watkins has size on him, but Cooks beats him in most every other measurable. If Cooks were over 6 foot, he'd be going top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 If Cooks made a catch in tight coverage once in his whole life he'd be going top 50. Cooks is going in the first round, so I'm not sure I see the argument you're making. People were saying the same thing aboout Jackson coming out of Cal, but I bet teams doing it over would take him over Donnie Avery, Devin Thomas, James Hardy and whomever else was taken before him. I've liked Cooks, Lee and Beckham for a couple years now and I would take every one of them at 18 without hesitation. I like Sammy as much as the next guy, but I'm not seeing him as some elite WR that's a cut above everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure the Rams would love to have our 4th round picks and move an eternity away from the 2nd overall pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
