Overview
- On FOX NFL Sunday, Rob Gronkowski suggested the Jets offer four or five first-round picks to the Bengals for Joe Burrow.
- Terry Bradshaw and Michael Strahan laughed at the proposal, underscoring how rare such a blockbuster would be.
- After trading Sauce Gardner to the Colts and Quinnen Williams to the Cowboys, the Jets hold five first-round and three second-round picks across the 2026 and 2027 drafts.
- Cincinnati has given no indication it will trade Burrow, the NFL trade deadline has passed, and any such discussion would be an offseason matter.
- Burrow is currently sidelined with turf toe with Joe Flacco starting in his place, while the Jets are set to ride Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor this season with longer-term QB options expected to be draft-driven.
