The Jets moved up to the No. 3 overall pick in this year’s draft, but not before aiming for the top selection on the board. Jets GM Mike Maccagnan says that he called the Browns about potentially acquiring the No. 1 pick as a part of due diligence (Twitter link via ESPN.com’s Rich Cimini).

Meanwhile, Maccagnan did not call the Giants about potentially landing the second overall pick. Reading between the lines, it seems that the Jets were unwilling to surrender next year’s first round pick to the Browns and had extra reservations about making such a deal with the rival Giants.
It is widely believed that the Jets are targeting a quarterback with the third pick, but it’s not clear which one(s) they are eyeing. In theory, they could open up their options by trading up again with the Giants at No. 2, but it seems unlikely that they’ll go down that road since they did not engage with them before pulling off the Colts deal.
I am equal parts humored and horrified that the image attached to this story…is of the Jets cheerleaders
If all it took was the ladies of the Jets Flight Crew to secure the No. 1 pick, sorry ladies- enjoy Ohio.
Im sure every team did.
I called, too…..but the line was busy.
Same…just rude
The Jets offered the 4 cheerleaders in the picture and the third overall pick for Cleveland’s number 1 overall
Joisee girls. Just hope the Jets get this right.
They can call the Browns all they want, but Dorsey has every right to laugh and hang up the phone
