Package 48 and 79 and go get Mims or Higgins

[sec101row23]

JD better be working the phones today trying to find a partner to go up and get Mims or Higgins.  I wouldn’t be comfortable waiting it out till 48.  There’s only 3 WR I would feel good about taking in the 2nd, Mims , Higgins and Pittman.   If JD could somehow walk away with Becton and Mims or Higgins with his first 2 draft picks as a Jets GM, then he’s off to great start.

Given his history, you should just wait a week and someone will hand you Brandin Cooks for a draft pick

You're the bowling ball with butcher knives of posters.

What will net you klvn bnjmn?

[Irish Jet]

None are worth trading up for IMO. Never anything like a sure thing WR at this stage and we can’t afford to give up picks. Potential to pick up a starter today decreases.

I'm curious to see what happens with Avery Williamson and Henry Anderson.  It's obvious to me that the plan was to try and increase draft capital by treading those guys.  SO I', into a 2nd rd trade or even use a 3rd and recoup a late third or 4th for AW. 

For example the Panthers pick is worth 520. tHe Jets 48 is worth 420. 100 pts is a comp 3rd. So throw in a 6th and AW to move up in this rd to grab one of the WRs. It will be interesting to see what JD can do.

That I would do but no way am I giving up picks in this draft. We have holes that need to be filled by cheap rookie contracts. LT? Bam! 

Joey D goes to work again today.

I think either of those 3 WR's would be a great get in the 2nd round, but not sure all 3 will last till 48. I sure hope so. If I think one will still be there it's probably Pittman.

[Chrebetfan80]

Theres a lot of interesting talent here in the 2nd.  A good group of edge left with uche, espenesa, gross matos.  A good group of safeties, still 2 tackles teams were floating as 1st rounders such as josh jones and ezra cleveland.  So its interesting. 

My instincts say you have to trade up to get the guy you want, that the pats, bengals, colts dolphins even and others could all be looking at WR's. 

however playing devils advocate, there is a lot of good talent i think teams thought could go in round 1 still on the board.

[Scoop24]

Shouldn’t even cost that much could probably get it done for A 4th . And i 100% agree go get Mims ..

i think the odds of any of those 3 being there is really low...

[nico002]

I would give up a 4th to grab Mims Higgins or Clayton 

[JetFan20]

I still would not trade up. The Jets have so many needs they really can’t go wrong. 
 

If the WR they want are gone that means there will be probably be a good CB or Edge sitting there. 

[Jetster]

I think that JD should just let the draft come to him. WRs are always available in the NFL, hell, the Browns starters were a trade & free agent in Landry & OBJ. Personally, now that Douglas has put assets into the Oline, I'd rather have veteran WRs on the field because if you give Darnold time, with Herndon back, Crowder, Perriman, Bell out of the backfield WE ARE MOVING THE BALL! I think this 2nd round is perfect for another Edge Rusher & use our two 3s for WR & maybe Center (Hennesey?). 

I think we're signing Logan Ryan at CB after the draft.

Find some way to get Mims or Pittman as I don't see either available when we pick at 48. I don't want any part of Higgins, he has bust written all over him. 

[YankeeJet22]

I really, really want to keep both 3's. Patience. 

[Augustiniak]

i can see them trading a 4th or 5th round pick to get a wr and then trading back with their own pick in the 3rd to get the pick back.  i do expect douglas to move around tonight and tomorrow.  i can't see mims sticking around long tonight, but i can see douglas targeting higgins if he makes it past the first 5-6 picks.  

[GreenFish]

Just sit tight. As much as we believe in a specific WR, there’s a 50% we’ll be wrong at this point in the draft. 

[bealeb319]

Higgins is my favorite wr in the draft so there is no chance we get him. My money is on the Giants who already took my favorite ot

lmfao - I figured one of us would be starting this thread but mine was going to be Higgins or Mims, draft one and I dont care if you have to move up to do it.

Becton and Higgins with the 1st 2 picks?  Dream scenario played out. 

[Stonehands]

Patience.  The fact that you list three guys available at wide receiver means someone will probably fall.  We still have two OT's that will be going soon and a run on RB's is about to start plus the CB market is starting to jump.  There are other wide receivers of note besides those three, as well. Shenault, Claypool, Hamler are all going to be impact players, too.

[T0mShane]

If Mims and Pittman are off the board, go Gross-Matos. If all three are off the board, dump out. 

[JustInFudge]

Honestly, I'm so stoked on Becton and what else JD has done for the OL, I'm almost willing to depart from my 2 WR/2 OL with the first 4 picks.  I wouldnt mind a trade up to secure Higgins and target Claypool and one of the RB's.  Wow, revamped offense.

Did Higgins ever produce a pro day thing this offseason? Do we know that his legs work? 

[Integrity28]

Trading up would be stupid. 2,3,3 = WR, IOL, EDGE, CB

We need all. In some cases several.

Edge is so important to this team. Yes we need playmakers on offense but we have to get an edge. Jets looking at Taylor in round 3. Hopefully they can get a WR in round 2 and Taylor should be there in round 3. 

[JustInFudge]

OMG go get him JD.  This kids catch radius and ability to keep the play going with Sam scrambling....

holy ****

please JD, please

I read somewhere how he’s similar to Stephen Hill and immediately threw up in my mouth.

That stupid mother ****er had two touchdowns against the Bills in his first game!!!!

He looks good when he’s healthy, for sure. But I’ve read that he’d been playing on a gimpy ankle all year which in one way is cool because it shows he’s tough, but it’s concerning because he had a bad ankle that needed surgery and hasn’t been seen since. Maybe @sec101row23 has some thoughts?

Omg he’s better than Hill. Hill had 25 catches his entire college career

I want no part of Higgins. He is injury prone, can't get separation and is not an elite athlete. And as for his legs working...... a major concern. 

Clemson wide receiver Tee Higgins' right ankle required surgery last spring and it left him with decreased range of motion, but he played on it for some time and had career highs with 1,167 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns on 59 catches as a junior in 2019. There might be some long-term concerns at the next level for Higgins, but his recent ankle injury is unlikely to have a major impact on his draft status this week.

This might be the worst argument ever. 

The Browns actually traded for both of those guys. OBJ cost a 1st, 2nd, and Jabrill Peppers, and Landry cost a 4th and a 7th. Both players have cap numbers over $14M today. If the Jets, instead, traded to the top of the second round and grabbed their top WR, the Jets would have him under contract for four years at about $8M total. Top WRs in the NFL are the second highest paid position in the NFL after QB. Getting a potential stud on a rookie deal is absolutely huge. I hate trading up in general, but the second round is a decent time to do it. 

By the chart, Jets could trade #48 and #79 to Cincinnati for their #33 and #147. It's a move they should definitely be discussing.
