Super unlikely. The QB market has dried up, are the Jets going to sign Matt Ryan? Give up picks to trade up, draft Levis and hope he pans out quickly enough to save Saleh and Douglas (who will be on the hotseat no matter what)? Have Zach Wilson start again?
Jets have painted themselves into a corner. Gutekunst has leverage, but honestly I think he needs to act soon -- some unexpected event could swing the opposite way fast.
I think that's a fair analysis. It also depends on how much Green Bay wants picks for this years draft to beef things up for Love. Jets could stall past the draft.
