Last year, the Jets traded away four picks to the Colts in order to move up to the No. 3 spot in the NFL Draft. This time around, they could take the opposite approach.

Jets general manager Mike Maccagnan says the team is open to trading its No. 3 pick in this year's draft.

"Right now, we feel good at No. 3, but I'd definitely say if there's an opportunity to trade down, we would absolutely look at it," Maccagnan told reporters Wednesday at the NFL scouting combine.

By acquiring the No. 3 pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, New York was able to draft Sam Darnold to be their franchise quarterback. With several other teams likely looking to trade up to acquire a franchise QB of their own, the Jets are in a position to get back the draft capital they spent a year ago.

"If we end up picking a player at three, we'll feel really good," Maccagnan said. "If there's an opportunity for us to move back and acquire more picks, that's something we'd definitely be potentially interested in. It would have to be the right kind of deal, but I definitely wouldn't rule anything out at this point in time."

The other New York team is particularly worth keeping an eye on as a trade partner for the Jets. Maccagnan was specifically asked about the possibility of trading with the Giants, who undoubtedly will be looking at QB options.

"Yeah, I think I would be open to any team that would," he said. "As long as the trade made sense to us, there's nothing that would stop us from doing that."
