Trade deadline rumors

Yeah, I think it does two things beneficial for the jets. 

First it helps give them more ammo to go after a QB and/or rebuild their team with draft picks.
Secondly, it helps prevent Aaron Glenn from accidentally winning some games in an already lost season.  I don't think any coach/player really wants to tank, but the GM can help things along by getting rid of their good players.  Also, they didn't really firesale the offense.  For a rebuilding team, I think you really want to have as much of a foundation on offense still intact, but by all means get rid of the defense and worry about that later.

I pass on the QB this year,  im going to fix my OL 1.5 deep and maybe try and add another first rounder for next year in the process where I start thinking about a QB.

The jets need a lot of help.... a rookie QB isn't anywhere near the top of that list IMO.  If the Vikings have shown anything over the last quarter century... you can find a journeyman or free agent veteran to drive the Ferrari if you build one,  you just need to bring in your rookie before that veteran crashes it into a tree.

I'm more of the mindset that if a great QB prospect is available to you, that you should always take them.

You just never know when that chance will come again, and only through the draft are you going to get one of those elite QBs that takes you to multiple SBs.

I'd just be stacking OLine and Receivers if I were the Jets on any non-QB pick.

That said, different ranking sites seem to think the Jets OLine is pretty ok

You and Jimmy are both right. I do agree that if a QB looks like a potential great one you do have to take them. The way the 26 draft looks right now, I just don't know who that will be. In watching the various top prospects at the position this year it appears the ones I like could benefit from another year in school. Who knows though, the next Anthony Richardson could pop up sometime between now and April.

The best trade Minnesota could make is getting guys back healthy, its all they need. Good no-show in the trade department for the team....it was pretty nuts.
