This guy writes about the Jets, and he has detailed 3 different trade scenarios where we trade Ngakoue to the Jets.  One of them I find intriguing, and that is, the second one, which is- 

We give them Ngakoue and our 20th overall pick.

They give us their 11th overall pick plus the 79th overall pick and a 5th rounder next year.  


So, the question is, would you take that deal?   That would give us the 9th pick and the 11th pick, plus the additional 3rd rounder this year and a throw-in next year. You'd have to have a player in mind at the 11th pick, so if you say yes, maybe you could also justify it by saying whom you think you could get at #11.

Absolutely.  You improve your draft position in the first round this year, and you end up adding more picks this year and next.  Ngakoue has made it clear he's ready to move on, and we're not going to give him the $22m he thinks he's worth to keep him around.  The franchise value has moved in the favor of the Jaguars at this point, so if they could pull off that trade with the Jets, I would race to ink that deal with NY.
