Jets reportedly unwilling to give up second-round pick for Redskins OL Trent Williams

This hasn’t been a banner week for the Jets. After missing out on many of their top free-agent targets, many are wondering whether the Jets will go for broke in order to land Redskins offensive tackle Trent Williams.

For now, they’re holding their ground.

The Redskins still want a second-round pick for Williams and the Jets are still unwilling to cough one up, reports Connor J. Hughes of The Athletic (Twitter link). Hughes adds that there’s no real sense of urgency on the Redskins’ side. From their perspective, they might be able to get the best haul possible after the draft in April, when there will be at least a few teams who walk away without any of their targeted protectors.

The Redskins’ logic is (gulp) fairly sound on this one, though a current-year draft pick would hold more value for them than a 2021 choice.

The Jets wanted to sign guard Graham Glasgow — who would have been a big help on the interior — but he went to the Broncos instead. The Jets' misses have not been limited to the offensive line: They’ve also lost out on cornerbacks James Bradberry and Byron Jones, plus outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy.
