The team is finalizing compensation and contract details. Interesting: Russini’s colleague Rich Cimini predicts the trade will [cost]( the Jets their 2023 second rounder (pick No. 43) and a conditional 2024 third rounder tied to individual/team performance. - Cimini does not think the Jets will have to part with their 2023 first-round pick (No. 13). Similar: Albert Breer is predicting a [similar]( compensation package, featuring the 2023 second-rounder and a conditional 2025 pick. - The conditional pick would be tied to Rodgers’ performance and whether he plays in 2024. First Round: If the Jets can hold on to the first-rounder, it can be used to boost Rodgers’ offensive line or receiving corps. Teaming OROY Garrett Wilson with a top receiver prospect like Jaxon Smith-Njigba could prove tempting.

Past Success: Eagles’ GM Howie Roseman did this last season with Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, who tied for the league-lead in interceptions (6) on an $850,000 salary. Targets: Berman thinks Roseman could target players like Ravens LB Patrick Queen, Panthers S Jeremey Chinn, and Panthers DT Derrick Brown. Capital: When you account for compensatory selections, the Eagles could have as many as 12 draft picks in 2024 — which is more than enough capital for Roseman to play around with. Image: John Jones/Icon Sportswire Broncos [Kareem Hunt] Broncos linked to Kareem Hunt and David Montgomery Details: Matthew Berry (NBC Sports) was [told]( at the Combine that the Broncos are “secretly nervous about” RB Javonte Williams, who is “a lot more hurt than the team is letting on publicly.” - Williams suffered tears to his ACL, LCL, and posterolateral corner last October. Hunt: Berry heard that the Broncos will target Kareem Hunt in free agency next week. If signed, Hunt would start until Williams is fully healthy. - Hunt totaled 678 scrimmage yards (468 rushing, 210 receiving) and scored 4 touchdowns in Cleveland last season. He averaged 4.3 yards per touch. Montgomery: If the Broncos can’t get Hunt, Berry was told they may pivot to David Montgomery — who totaled 1,117 scrimmage yards (801 rushing, 316 receiving) and scored 6 touchdowns in Chicago last season. He averaged 4.8 yards per touch. Image: Jeffrey Brown/Icon Sportswire Cowboys [Tyron Smith] Cowboys News: Tyron Smith, TE, Donovan Wilson Smith: The Cowboys are working to bring left tackle Tyron Smith back for his 13th season. The sides are negotiating a [reworked]( contract that would reduce the 33-year-old’s $17.6 million cap hit. - Smith’s return would likely keep 2022 first-rounder Tyler Smith at left guard. - The rookie allowed 6 sacks and committed 13 penalties in 2022 (71.4 PFF grade). TE: The Athletic’s Jon Machota thinks the Cowboys will consider [drafting]( a tight end in the first round (pick No. 26). - Dallas is expected to lose Dalton Schultz in free agency next week. - This year’s tight end draft class is considered uniquely strong. Wilson: Jordan Schultz (The Score) thinks S Donovan Wilson will be [priced]( out of the Cowboys’ range in free agency. The 28-year-old finished last season with a team-high 101 tackles, 5 sacks, 1 interception, and 2 forced fumbles. Image: Andrew Dieb/Icon Sportswire Panthers [Will Levis] Albert Breer believes the Panthers will trade up for a QB Details: Breer “wholeheartedly” believes that Carolina will [move up]( from pick No. 9 to secure one of the draft’s top quarterbacks. Interesting: Breer thinks the Panthers are likelier to trade for the Cardinals’ No. 3 pick than the Bears’ No. 1 pick. - If Bryce Love and C.J. Stroud go with the top two picks, that would leave the Panthers choosing between Will Levis and Anthony Richardson. Lamar: The Panthers’ intent to select a rookie quarterback, explains why they have no interest in pursuing Lamar Jackson. Image: Bryan Lynn/Icon Sportswire Wright [Darnell Wright] Daniel Jeremiah: Tennessee’s Darnell Wright belongs in the discussion for top OT Details: Jeremiah thinks Wright [deserves]( OT1 consideration because he was excellent during the 2022 season, excelled at the Senior Bowl, and impressed at the Combine. 2022 Season: Across 13 games (507 pass block snaps), Wright [allowed]( 0 sacks, 2 hits, and 6 QB hurries. - Many of those games came against top-tier SEC competition. - Alabama edge rusher Will Anderson — one of the draft’s top overall prospects — said Wright was the [best]( offensive tackle he faced in college. Senior Bowl: Wright was [voted]( the American Team’s Practice Player-of-the-Week. Reports out of Mobile indicated that he routinely dominated his opposition in one-on-one reps. Combine: Wright ran a 5.01 in the 40-yard dash — which is a stunningly fast time for someone his size (6-foot-5, 333 pounds). Mock Draft: ESPN’s Todd McShay has the [Jaguars]( selecting Wright with the No. 24 pick.
