shuler82 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 From Tony Pauline: Quote The Cowboys are one of four teams that have inquired on moving up to the top spot of the draft. The other three teams are the Philadelphia Eagles, San Francisco 49ers and the New York Jets, who are the dark horse. The overall belief around the league is the Jets don’t have the ammunition to move up. The question is would they be willing to move up a half dozen spots is Paxton Lynch falls to the middle of round one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PepPep Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 For L.Tunsil, yes. Go up and get him for Mo and the 20th overall pick. For P.Lynch, I wouldn't move a muscle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's going to cost a whole lot more than the 20 pick, and Muhammad Wilkerson to move up to the number 1 pick in the draft. It isn't worth it , the price the Jets will have to pay. The Jets trading up 6 spots is going to cost them 20 and a third round draft choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFJF Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 If the Jets think one of these QB's can be "the guy", then I have no issue with them giving up whatever it may take to get them. D-linemen, linebackers, wide receivers, it's great to have good ones, but nothing carries you like a franchise QB. Go get one, because we may find out at some point that Geno isn't the answer.

ChuckkieB Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 This could be more smoke blowing by the Jets, but all of the signs, at least in my opinion, are pointing towards the Jets taking a QB in the first round. If they like one of the QB's, they have to do whatever it takes to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Any media report that includes "....and the Jets" amongst teams looking to trade/splash/do something stupid I almost instantly ignore. In a word where no one has to name their source, I'm absolutely convinced a minimum of 75% of these reports are absolutely bullsh*t designed to do nothing more than to spur interest or drive newspaper sales/website hits/advert rates. I'll believe the Jets "are looking to move up to the #1 pick" after we make that trade, till this, lol, right, sure. Whatever you say. 99% of the modern media is no more knowledgeable or reliable than your average forum poster, and half are far less informed frankly.

IMO,for sure Mo is part of the deal. Strongly doubt this is going to happen but they probably just called to see what the value was, and they would be willing to give Mo and 20 if no one else called.

Pretty selective posting I haven't seen anywhere that's reported the Jets have inquired about moving up to the #1 overall pick. Whether that's just Mac leaving no stone unturned, or they are serious about getting their guy and need to move up to do so, it's better than a 104th Fitz/Glennon/Kaep thread. As for what you bolded, yeah, no sh*te. It's not likely. That's why they're considered the dark horse. Selective posting would've left that part of his post out.

CrazyCarl40 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I could see the Jets trying to get into the top ten if Ronnie Stanley slips a little. Some experts expect him to be better than Tunsil in the long run. He's a plug and play LT. Could be worth it to move up and grab him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carson Wentz?... ehhh i don't like him that much - and best believe they'll get fcking nuked if it doesn't work out I agree %100. Frankly, Wentz is the only guy I would use 1st round pick on. Period. And no, it would not be in the top 10, more like the late teens, early 20s. But that's just me. I think this is a weak draft for QBs. With a lot of raw prospects that COULD turn into great NFL QBs but are far and away from being ready to start and, for the most part, are major gambles. Still, I'm fully aware that its possible at least 3 QBs are taken in the first by teams willing to take that gamble. Should the Jets do it? I don't think so. But I'm not a scout, and I'm not looking at these players up close and scrutinizing every aspect of their game. If the Jets feel like P.Lynch is their guy, obviously take him at 20. But I would not trade up for him and the assumption will be that he sits 1-2 years to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
