What happened: The New York Jets traded picks No. 33 and No. 179 to the San Francisco 49ers for the No. 30 overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. The deal was reported by Adam Schefter during Day 2 of the draft. Jets move up three spots into the back end of the first round.
Why it matters: This positions the Jets to target a high-upside player like an edge rusher or offensive tackle amid their rebuild. 49ers gain an extra mid-second rounder and depth pick to bolster roster holes. Trade shakes up draft boards and on top prospects.
By the numbers: Trade details: - NYJ receives: Pick 30 (Round 1) - SF receives: Pick 33 (Round 2), Pick 179 (Round 6) Jets 2025 record: 7-10 (pick 33 original). 49ers: 12-5 (pick 30 original).
What to watch: Monitor Jets' selection at No. 30 for potential targets like EDGE Abdul Carter. Watch 49ers' moves with added second-round capital.
