Draft rumor: Jets & Saints swap 1st rounders. Saints get Muhammed Wilkerson

Would you do this trade if you were in charge of the Saints draft? I would.
Btw, the Jets pick #20 in round 1, so we'd be getting Wilkerson for moving back 8 spots in the 1st round.

THE SAINTS ARE GOING TO TRADE DOWN WITH THE NEW YORK JETS AT #20, SO THE JETS CAN MOVE UP TO TAKE QB PAXTON LYNCH — AND GIVE THE SAINTS DEFENSIVE END MUHAMMAD WILKERSON IN RETURN
This one is the “hottest” rumor at the moment among Saints fans, though I can’t say just how plausible it is or not.
It’s a longshot that the Jets will get appropriate compensation for the Pro Bowl defensive end, who has stayed away from offseason workouts after being given the franchise tag.
Remaining with the Jets is the most likely option for Wilkerson. But if the Jets are serious about moving up to get a “franchise QB” like Paxton Lynch, then the Saints asking for Wikerson in return is actually not that far-fetched as you might think.

Just Wilkerson? How bout a 2nd also?

Go ahead and send it over. I'll approve it for the saints.

What else do we get for trading back?

You're goddamn right I would. If we come out of this draft with Muhammed Wilkerson, I don't give a shite if we draft all offense the rest of it, I'd be fapping all night.

We would probably get more from the Jets. They'd probably have to throw in some draft picks as well, maybe swap a couple with us.
It's a fun fantasy, though I don't think the Saints will trade down, based solely on the fact that they never have. 10/10 would skeet if they did

Jets only have 6 picks including two 7th rounders. Maybe you have them give up their 3rd for our 4th?

But trading down for a proven veteran at a position of need is different than trading back just for picks. If they were willing to pay Norman, they just might be willing to pay Wilkerson.

i just don't see how niners pass on lynch to be honest.
Posted on 4/27/16 at 12:06 pm to Jwho77
and we'd still end up with Jarran at 20...
Cam, Fairley, Jarran, Mo... and a Drew restructure in tow...
OH MY! it's gonna be a fun night.

So one of the "hottest" draft rumors is just speculation by some random fan on Twitter?
What a shitty report.
ETA - this would have to be worked out well in advance because the trade probably would not happen without a contract first being negotiated and Wilkerson getting a physical coming off his broken leg.

So it's not even a rumor among reporters that cover these teams. It's an idea that someone probably posted on Saints Report and got a decent number of responses.
A+ stuff from BigEasyBeliever.

Why would the Jets trade all the way down to #12 when nobody between the Saints and Jets needs a QB? If the draft order stays as it is now the Jets could wait until Lynch falls to them. This trade doesn't make any sense.
As said before, the Jets don't have that many picks to begin with so trading up is necessary ideal for them. 2nd, Wilkerson is on the final year of his contract and trading for a player who could potentially not resign with you next season isn't worth it either.
