New York Jets Open to Trade No. 3 Overall Pick in NFL Draft

New York Jets GM Mike Maccagnan is making it clear the Jets are open for business in regards to the No. 3 overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft.

"Not to say we're committed to doing it," Maccagnan told the New York Post. "But we'd definitely be very intrigued by that." 

The Jets would almost certainly be getting calls from teams looking to snag either Kyler Murray or Dwayne Haskins at the No. 3 spot. If the Jets stay put at No. 3, the team is in prime position to draft a defensive playmaker like Nick Bosa, Josh Allen or Devin White among others.

Jon Gruden said he "cried for 3 days after trading [Khalil] Mack," per Vic Tafur. Gruden added, "But we're not able to get Antonio Brown, Trent Brown and Lamarcus Joyner without making that trade."
