Some sites mention Jets offering #20 and DE Wilkerson to move into top 10 area, would you take the trade?Some sites mention Jets offering #20 and DE Wilkerson to move into top 10 area, would you take the trade?@RichCimini: It's an interesting question, Harry, one I'm sure the Jets have explored. Logically, there are two prime periods to trade Muhammad Wilkerson. The first is, like, now, meaning in the coming days. If they deal the Pro Bowl defensive end at the start of free agency, they'd be able to use the additional cap space ($15.7 million) to sign quality free agents. As you know, the top players are scooped up in the first few days. Once the first wave is over, the urgency for cap space is reduced.The second period is right before the draft, when they could try to use Wilkerson as a bargaining chip to improve their draft position, as your question suggests. Right now, the Jets have the 20th pick. In theory, that pick, packaged with Wilkerson, could get them into the top 10, perhaps a little higher.
