Rapoport: Jets Looking to Move up to Round 2

By Glenn Naughton Posted On April 26, 2019

Likely hoping to target an edge rusher or offensive lineman, NFL insider Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Jets are looking to move up in to round two.

Keep an eye on this one: The #Jets are looking into making a big move all the way from the third round into the early second, sources tell me and @MikeGarafolo. Would need to give up significant capital in future draft picks.

The Jets are currently without a second-round pick, but own a pair of third rounders with the 68th and 93rd picks overall. The team would also likely be willing to include linebacker Darron Lee in any deal.

If the Jets look to make a move in to the early part of the second round, a pair of teams to keep an eye on would be the Tampa Bay Bucs and Denver Broncos who own picks 39 and 41 respectively.
