Trade! The #Jets acquired the No. 3 overall pick from the #Colts for their No. 6 pick, 37th and 49th overall picks in the 2018 NFL Draft and second-round pick in 2019. Major move.

Thats a lot of capital to move up 3 spots! We're gonna get buffalo's 2nd and 3rd if they want the 9th pick

That's a good move for them. They need a qb in the worst way. And to leap frog the Browns with the #4 pick, which the Browns could use to pick a qb, is a must for the Jets.

Browns are going QB #1. I think the Jets just wanted to beat Buffalo moving up.

Your turn Buffalo/Miami.

Damn Colts have 3 2nd rounders and will still get the guy they'd take at 3 (Nelson, Chubb, Barkley).

Wonder if the Giants look to trade down now? Have to assume Darnold is going number 1 now, and Barkley at number 2 seems ill advised for a team with an aging roster and QB. All word how ever is that the Giants don't plan on taking a QB (don't know why) so might as well move down a little and get more picks to help improve the roster. I could see the Cardinals getting crazy and trading away a haul of picks in this year and next years draft to move up and grab the guy out of UCLA.

Giants shoulda done that trade with the Jets.

I understand the Jets moving up to get a QB but they must have someone in mind they want really bad. But you have two teams in need of a QB ahead of them so it's a dangerous chess move

Don't the Giants realise that they need a qb? Jets have panicked here, though. Presumably the Bills move spooked them. This year's draft is looking WILD!!

They'll trade with someone higher than us.

I'd be shocked if Barkley last till 6. Browns would take him at 4 or trade out to a team that wants Barkley.

Yeah, no way they wait till 9. If one of the QBs fall, teams will look to trade up to 6, 7, 8. Colts could easily trade down again.
