4th-rounder the price for Sheldon Richardson?
According to the New York Post, a fourth-round pick is "about as much" as the Jets can hope for in exchange for DE Sheldon Richardson.
This jibes with what has been reported, especially since the Eagles acquired DT Timmy Jernigan by merely exchanging third-round picks with the Ravens. One possible hangup is Richardson's contract-year status and word he's seeking a $100 million extension, laughable considering his off-field past and down 2016 season. A fourth- or fifth-rounder may be all that's offered, and GM Mike Maccagnan will have to weigh whether it's enough.
But the Jets could be motivated to move on from Richardson. He was suspended to start the 2015 season (drug policy violation) and the 2016 season (personal conduct policy violation). Coach Todd Bowles benched him to start the Dolphins game in November last year for being late repeatedly.
Then, there is Richardson's on-field production. He had just 1.5 sacks last year and was invisible at times, though the coaching staff had him playing out of position at times.

Reportedly them and the Redskins already did earlier in the summer but he didn't want to drop his salary to their demands.
Unless they aren't as confident in their dline depth and their reconsidering how much they'll pay him.

Just throwing more cash at that already good defense though. Still no OL, plus they'd have to work out a LT deal.

#Jets get Kearse and a 2/3 for a Richardson, who is in a contract year. That's a damn good trade for a team not competing in 17
