Jets want to trade up.

Rumors are circling that the Jets are trying to move into the top three to select Calvin Johnson or Adrian Peterson. In my opinion the Browns should jump on that deal even though the Jets are selecting in the 25th slot. In order to swing the deal, per the trade value chart, the Jets would have to offer their 25th pick, 2nd rounder, 3rd rounder, next year's 1st rounder, and a 3rd or 4th rounder depending on the Jets finish next year. This bounty of picks is something the Browns are in dire need of with so many areas of weakness on the team

With the Jets first rounder this year they could take a look at Joe Staley, LT, Central Michigan; Darrell Revis, CB, Pittsburgh, Justin Blalock, OG, Texas; or Charles Johnson, DE, Georgia.

Then with the Browns 2nd rounder they could take a look at Marcus McCauley, CB, Fresno State; Jonathan Wade, CB, Tennessee; Arron Sears, OG, Tennessee; or Tank Tyler, NT, North Carolina State.

With the Jets 2nd rounder the guys available should be Johnathan Harrell, NT, Tennessee; or Michael Bush, RB, Louisville.

With the Browns 3rd rounder the guys worth a look are Baraka Atkins, DE, Miami; Samson Satele, C, Hawaii; Tim Shaw, OLB, Penn State; Tony Ugoh, OT, Arkansas; or Fred Bennett, CB, South Carolina.

With the Jets 3rd rounder the best players available should be Marcus Thomas, DT, Florida; D'Juan Woods, WR, Oklahoma State; or Brandon Mebane, DE/DT, California.

This trade could provide a large talent pool of youthful players before you even factor in the picks to come in the 2008 draft.
