Doesn't look like we are gonna have many draft picks this year ! Let's hope the Lito Sheppard and Braylon Edwards trade doesn't make us lose a 2nd Round Pick. Lito should be a 4th Rounder and Braylon should be a 5th Rounder. Then, we lose our 7th rounder for sure and if we have to give up ANYTHING for Kevin O'Connel, that's a total joke: 7TH ROUND - Green Bay to New York Jets (returned): Green Bay traded its 2010 seventh-round selection and quarterback Brett Favre to the Jets for the Jets' 2009 third-round selection. The Jets acquired this pick as part of the conditional agreement of the trade in which Favre's performance resulted in the Packers receiving the Jets' 2009 third-round selection, coupled with Favre retiring after the 2008 season. However, this pick has been returned to the Packers. 2ND, 3RD, or 4TH ROUND - New York Jets to Philadelphia: New York traded a 2009 fifth-round selection and a conditional 2010 selection to Philadelphia for CB Lito Sheppard. Depending on Sheppard's playing time in 2009 and if Sheppard is not released by the Jets prior to the beginning of a contract extension beginning in March 2010, the selection could be in the second, third, or fourth round. If Sheppard is released prior to March 2010 and he plays less than 40% of the Jets defensive snaps in 2009, the Eagles will receive no 2010 pick from the Jets through this trade. 2ND or 3RD, and 5TH ROUND - New York Jets to Cleveland. New York traded a conditional third round pick, as well as a fifth round pick, WR Chansi Stuckey, and LB Jason Trusnik, to Cleveland for WR Braylon Edwards. The third-round pick can become a second-round pick based on Edwards' performance with New York. TBA ROUND - New York Jets to Detroit. The Jets traded an undisclosed 2010 draft choice to Detroit for quarterback Kevin O'Connell.
There's a draft forum, and this has been discussed about 1000 times in it. Look around before you make a thread that's already been made over and over again.
I'm posting it because there are people who thing we are gonna fill in the missing pieces of this team thru Free Agency and the Draft. Well, with our limitations for being in the Final 8 for Free Agency and with most of our draft picks already traded, I thought I'm mention that we don't have many options this off season to really improve the team. Half of the threads that are coming up all the time are repeats so get over it.
Yes, but you post old info. The picks have already been set. You "hope" Lito doesn't cost us a 2nd rounder? He's costing us a 4th. That's already set. Not to mention, we get a 5th back.
There will be plenty of options to improve this team. Just because we have a limited amount of draft picks now, doesn't mean we won't acquire more picks during the draft. The Jets will be able to bring in a few solid role players through free agency. We'll be at the top of the list for a lot of players that are around when we're able to sign free agents.
Not to mention that teams are going to be MORE likely to sign RFAs this season thanks to the dearth of UFAs with the new rules. Not everyone values the draft in the same way, and we may have a couple of low round RFAs that teams will go after.
