Sammybighead Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Just wanted to get a sense when/if everyone believed the #2 pick will be traded. I’m so confused as to what we will do, way to many options out there. But I keep going back to “what if Jacksonville does the unthinkable and take Wilson over Lawrence”? If that happens, can you risk trading the #2 prior to the draft? I want Watson, but would you have buyer’s remorse if you ended up passing on Lawrence plus all the draft picks we have to give up to get Watson?

Jackie Treehorn Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I have a feeling JD won’t get enough for the 2nd pick to trade it. Too many question marks surrounding the other QB prospects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PepPep Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I don't believe we are trading the #2 pick. I am convinced we are taking a QB and I have a feeling it will be Fields. HOWEVER, if we do trade out of #2, it will most likely be during the draft...with the announcement coming while we are on the clock. Only wild card is if we end up trading for Watson and it seems more and more like that's not happening, which is a bummer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32EBoozer Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I believe JD will make a last best “take it or leave it” offer to Houston prior to FA. If Houston balks, it’s on to trading Darnold during FA period and Draft night where he will make #2 available and if value does not come close to selection, he resets the QB clock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetPotato Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I've become convinced that they will pick Wilson at #2. Darnold is clearly a goner. You can't have both a Darnold departure and a trade down. It's one or the other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oatmeal Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Highly doubt Joe Douglas will trade the #2 pick and it will get increasingly harder with things like that Chris Sims scouting report. Hell Chris is already doing the NYC media circuit promoting and selling Zach Wilson to the fanbase. Add in Denzel Mims, Perriman, Jamal Adams and the Mark Sanchez comments and the emphasis on how close he is with Darnold and imo the writing is on the wall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Watson is a given, Lawrence isnt Listen, I agree. Obviously I won’t be sad about getting Watson. There will be zero buyer’s remorse from a talent perspective. I’m talking value perspective since I believe, down the line (maybe in a couple years), Trevor will be just as good (if not better) than Watson. Watson, who is a sure thing right now, is not a hard sell for me either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take the given every time, a 25 year old star, its not even debatable to me. Trevor could become a star or not. Watson is a star 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rangerous Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Unless Douglas uses the 2nd pick in a trade we won’t know what he’s going to do with it until draft night. And if there’s a trade we won’t know until sometime he’s had the chance to evaluate the QB and player prospects. For all we know he’s already made an offer for Watson.

Icer Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Every day that passes without a trade is a day closer to the Jets picking Zach Wilson. I expect if a trade happens it will be before the draft, not the day of (or on the clock) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 The Jets are not going to officially trade the pick until jax officially takes Lawrence. They will have the parameters of any deal worked out before the draft but will tell the team they are dealing with that it does not go through until Jax turns in the card. There is really no reason for the jets to make the move until after pick #1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is really no reason for the jets to make the move until after pick #1. There's no reason for them to wait until they're on the clock, either. There's no mystery surrounding the #1 pick; it's going to be Trevor Lawrence. Teams will negotiate with JD with their favorite non-Lawrence prospect in mind. Douglas will have a lot of offers for the pick, and plenty of time to massage those offers and pick his favorite. If he wants to get fancy and move down more than once, he'll definitely want to have that first trade in the books so that he can start preliminary negotiations to trade down from his new spot (where waiting until he's on the clock would likely be the move). But nothing's going to happen until all these QBs finish up their pro days at the end of March. If he's going to move the pick, I'd expect it to happen in the first few weeks of April. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nycdan Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 There is absolutely no reason to rush this. If someone blows JD away with an offer, sure, but the only reason I can see for being anxious to see Sam traded early is to remove one perceived obstacle from the dream of the Jets drafting Zach Wilson who has achieved a messiah-like reputation on this board. It feels like anything that seems to interfere with that outcome, including not trading Darnold early for no good reason, is a problem. It's not. If there is a solid offer and it fits with JD's plan, he'll move Sam. Similarly, if there's an incredible offer for the #2 pick, I would expect that to be in play as well. If someone trades up for the #2 pick and drafts Fields, I will be waiting for heads to explode. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
