Next year's pick is equivalent to a current pick one round later so this trade is moving to 3 from 6 in exchange for 2 seconds. Last year the Jets moved from 6 to 3 for 2 seconds plus a next year second (equivalent to a third) so throw in at least another third to make equivalent to last year's trade. Even then I'm not sure i make a trade like that to a team I'm sharing a stadium with.
Yeah like when the Chiefs traded 27 and their 2018 first (and a third) to move up for Mahomes.
You can't really judge how good ateam will be in future years. Last year 7 playoff teams missed the playoffs the previous year. That's very common. In fact other than the pats (10) and the chiefs (4) no team has more than 2 consecutive playoff appearances and there are only 3 of them.
Like I said, it's cheaper than what the Jets paid for the exact same move last year. Maybe the Jets overpaid too.
If you want to ignore any sort of context whatsoever, sure, it’s the “same price”.Like I said, it's cheaper than what the Jets paid for the exact same move last year. Maybe the Jets overpaid too.
What context exactly? Moving up from 6 to 3 to draft a QB seems the same to me. Only difference is whether you consider a future first equivalent to a current second which seems the general rule but sure there could be exceptions. What's the exception here?
Uh, the exception is that the Giants are bad and there’s a very good chance they’ll be just as bad next year?
I just don’t see a team taking Haskins top-5
People always expect bad teams to stay bad and good teams to stay good. Unless you're the Jets (or the browns) that's usually not true.
If you have a bad team you should probably be hesititant to trade away a future first unless there’s a very high chance the team will improve.
