Good morning Gang Green Nation! On the first day of drills at the NFL combine the New York Jets stole the headlines by making the first major trade of this offseason. The Jets shipped Jermaine Johnson to old friend Robert Saleh and the Tennessee Titans. In return they received giant defensive tackle T’Vondre Sweat. Sweat is 25 years old and still has two inexpensive years on his rookie deal left. The trade will not officially be completed until the start of the new league year on March 11, and it is subject to medical evaluations of both players. In addition to adding a needed run stuffer on the defensive line, the deal also cleared more than $10 million in salary cap space for the Jets. The rebuild continues as Aaron Glenn reshapes the Jets in his own image.

Word is the Jets may not be done with shipping out players Glenn didn’t bring here. With trades, massive draft capital and gobs of cap space, the Jets roster will be radically transformed by the time the team opens the 2026 season. It will be difficult not to have an improved roster over the dregs the Jets ended last season with. How big the upgrades will be and how much the new coaching staff can coax out of them remain questions to be answered.
