The Jets have traded DT Dewayne Robertson to the Broncos for a late round conditional draft pick in 2009.  The pick can escalate to as high as a 2nd rounder based on his performance with the Broncos in 2008.  Robertson played in 16 games (15 starts) for the Jets last season and he made 57 tackles and had 4 sacks.  Robertson played in 77 games (75 starts) for the Jets in his career and he made 256 tackles, had 14.5 sacks and he defended 1 pass.  Only time will tell if this will be a good trade or not for the Jets.

The New York Jets have acquired DT Kris Jenkins from the Panthers for a 3rd and 5th round pick in the 2008 NFL Draft.  Jenkins is a load in the running game at 6’4″, 335 pounds but he didn’t have his best season last year.  He played in 16 games for the Panthers last season and he made 38 tackles and had 2.5 sacks.  Jenkins has now played in 85 games in his NFL career and he has made 216 tackles, defensed 8 passes, has 20.5 sacks and he’s forced a fumble.  If Jenkins rebounds from his off 2007 season the Jets have a steal here.
