Jets GM showed his hand last year when it comes to trading picks went all in this year

Wiki Article

On Saturday, the , trading their first-round pick and three second-rounders to the in order to move up three spots and put themselves in position to draft a potential franchise quarterback. Pleasure doing busine s with you, ! Craig Smith Women Jersey Indianapolis Colts (@Colts) The move was pretty shocking in the moment, but looking back, we probably should have seen it coming. Shortly after his team's season ended, Jets general manager Mike Maccagnan basically announced his intention to ."The simple answer to that question is yes," Maccagnan said, per ESPN.com. "If that was a player we felt strong about, we would have ."Maccagnan basically did the same thing, as far as foreshadowing his intention, last year. The Jets finished the 2016 season with a 5-11 record and held picks No. 6, 39, 70, 107, 150, 191, and 224 in the 2017 draft. They had a ton of holes to fill on their team, and so in March, Maccagnan declared that his team was "" to any team that wanted to move up in any round because he was looking to collect extra draft picks. "I think the one thing for ourselves would be, we would like to move back and acquire more picks in this draft if po sible," he said at the time. "We're open for busine s in every round. If somebody wants to move up in any particular round, call us up."When the actual draft rolled around, the Jets didn't trade their first-round selection (they took safety ), but they did make five trades, of them while turning four picks into seven.JetstradeNo. 70 to andreceiveNo. 79 and No. 160JetstradeNo. 107 to andreceiveNo. 125 and No. 204JetstradeNo. 125 to andreceiveNo. 141 and No. 197JetstradeNo. 160 and No. 224 to andreceiveNo. 181 and No. 188JetstradeNo. 191 to andreceive2018 5th-round pickBecause the Jets received and then traded No. 125 and No. 160 in separate Mattias Ekholm Jersey deals, their total haul looks like this: Traded:No. 70, 107, 191, 224Received:No. 79, 141, 181, 188, 197, 204, 2018 5th-rounder (DAL)As we wrote at the time, how you felt about those deals likely depended on whether you consider yourself an old-school or new-school kind of thinker.Old-school draftniks likely still use the that was popularized by the Cowboys in the early 1990s. On that chart, the Jets came out losers in this series of deals, no matter where that 2015 fifth-rounder from the Cowboys falls. The Jets surrendered Alexei Emelin Women Jersey four picks totaling 337 points on the Jimmy Johnson chart, while receiving six picks totaling 288.1 points in this year's draft and a fifth-round selection that will yield between 27.4 and 43 points in the 2018 draft, depending on where the Cowboys finish next season. Either way, that looks like a lo s. It's a mild lo s equivalent to giving away the 191st pick for free, and you can argue that turning four picks into seven still makes it a win, especially considering just how many holes the Jets have on their roster.Newer-school draft thinkers that prefer to use the popularized by Chase Stuart (explained and ) and favored by more analytically-inclined front offices will likely think of this series of deals as a clear win. There, the Jets surrendered four picks totaling 13.6 points, and received six picks totaling 14.4 points in this year's draft, and a fifth-round selection that will yield between 2.3 and 3.7 points in the 2018 draft, depending on where the Cowboys finish next season That's the equivalent of generating a fourth or fifth-round pick out of mid-air, and you get to make seven selections out of four. That's a win no matter how you slice it.This Kyle Turris Kids Jersey year's trade is different. The Jets took heavy lo ses on both the Jimmy Johnson chart (received 2,200 points; traded 2,540 points in 2018 and 270-580 points in 2019) and the Chase Stuart chart (received 27.6 points; traded 44.6 points in 2018 and 8.1-12.3 points in 2019) in order to move up just three spots in the first round.In fairne s, there are other considerations at play here: the Jets are clearly targeting a quarterback and were sitting behind the ; and the have been heavily rumored to be interested in trading up for a quarterback and could have leapfrogged the Jets as well. The Browns are widely considered likely to take a quarterback at No. 1 and the could take one at No. 2 as well. If the Bills traded up and the Broncos took one as well, the Jets could have been left out of the mix for one of the top four QBs in the draft. Moving up to No. 3 at least ensures they will get one of those players, even if quarterbacks go first and second.That said, it's entirely po sible that the Giants don't take a QB at No. 2, and/or that the Broncos don't take one at No. 5. (The Colts have and the Browns aren't going to take two QBs in the top-five, so barring someone jumping them with a trade, the greatest number of quarterbacks that would have come off the board before the No. 6 pick was three.) The Jets could have po sibly stayed at No. 6 and still gotten one of the top two or three quarterbacks in the draft. Juuse Saros Men Jersey After they just handed out $16 million in contracts to and in free agency, surrendering three second-rounders to move up three spots seems like an awfully heavy price to pay without knowing for sure that it's what has to be done to get your man. That's especially true because (a) nobody knows which quarterback the Browns will take at No. 1; (b) nobody knows whether the Giants will take a QB, or which one they will take if they do; and (c) the Giants could still trade down and somebody could swoop in on the Jets and land the guy they want.To consider this deal an outright win for the Jets, you basically have to believe that they value three quarterbacks in this cla s e sentially equally, that they were sure none of those three quarterbacks would be there at No. 6, and that they're correct in their evaluation of those quarterbacks. Considering it's extremely unlikely the Jets value three Dan Hamhuis Kids Jersey quarterbacks in this cla s equally, that NFL teams are almost always wrong in their evaluation of quarterbacks, and the Jets in particular have shown themselves to be wrong in their evaluation of quarterbacks ( and say hi), it's hard to view this as anything but a lo s.
