Because Denver could trade up into the top 20 picks and snag Lynch before the Jets pick.

Ok but neither team is trading up all the way to #12 if that's the case. Both will wait until the later teens where teams that need QBs will get jumped. It's common sense not to overpay unless you're receiving a top 2 pick apparently

Examining Wilkerson's true trade value. Here's what a Jets local writer has guessed:

quote:

My guess—and this is strictly a guess—is that the best the Jets might hope for is something like a second-round pick and a fourth-round pick for Wilkerson. But that's only because, as you mentioned, any potential trade partner will have to pay him a long-term deal in the neighborhood of $50 million guaranteed. But Wilkerson is also recovering from a broken leg that will keep him from partaking in any team's offseason program.

Pretty much out of time on a Wilkerson trade. He would have to take a physical and negotiate a new contract. Don't see how that gets done the evening before the draft.

Jets will never sniff a first. A 2nd is fair IMO.

I would swap 1sts, and give them our 3rd for Wilk.

Draft Dodd then Whitehair or Westerman and throw a wolf of wallstreet orgy on airline.

This is not even a rumor. It is just some fans' fantasy trade.

I was more or less referencing the 1st for Wilk chatter their GM keeps pumping.

A slide from 12 to 20 carries 3rd round value, throw in our 3rd and I think it is pretty close to high end 2nd round value. Probably their best offer considering the pending contract he is due.

How do you get that contract negotiated before tomorrow night with draft preparations?

12 to 20 is 2nd round value. I have read that the offers they are getting are in the 3rd round range and they may be willing to meet in the middle at a 2nd round compensation.

Loomis needs to get on the horn now and make this happen.

Well Loomis had the opportunity to make this happen last year before the draft when the Jets were shopping Wilkerson. Remember they were going to draft Leonard Williams but the asking price was too much from the Jets.

Kind of what it sounds like to me. Throw some shite against the wall. See if it sticks.
