ORLANDO, Fla. — The Jets made a bold move this month, moving up from No. 6 to No. 3 in the NFL Draft. Before trading with the Colts and jumping three spots, the Jets asked the Browns about getting the No. 1 overall pick. But the compensation was just too much, so the Jets settled for No. 3.
However, why not try and move to No. 2, where the Giants currently reside? Jets general manager Mike Maccagnan said they never spoke to the Giants about getting the No. 2 position.
“I think we kinda felt good about the third spot, we really did,” Maccagnan said Monday at the NFL owners’ meetings.
