“Still waiting for the Jets to cut Corey Davis so the #Falcons can sign him,” a Twitter user said.
“The #Jets have “very real” interest in signing Odell Beckham, per @Connor_J_Hughes. The team has already added Allen Lazard and speedy Mecole Hardman in free-agency this offseason. The trade Elijah Moore and likely to move on from Corey Davis next,” NFL expert Dov Kleimen tweeted.
How does trading Moore and Davis help the Jets?
New York will not want to let go of their first-round pick, which is No 13 overall. The team could add a left-tackle. However, it seems like they will offer No 42 and 43 overall to Green Bay for quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

The Athletic’s Zack Rosenblatt predicted Elijah Moore’s trade on March 20. He added that the ‘Jets wideout heading to the Packers in return would be either veteran cut candidate Corey Davis or 2020 second-round pick Denzel Mims’.
Davis holds a cap hit of $11.167 million this year according to Over the Cap. If New York release him, they would save a whopping $10.5 million.

New York’s interest in Beckham is “very real,” according to a recent report from SNY. Rodgers wants him.
