After the draft, metropolis Steelers GM Kevin sauce mitt the discourse of whether the aggroup was disagreeable to advise up for businessman OG king DeCastro to our imaginations. Last night, NFL Network's Jason La Canfora gave us a objective represent to change the reflection in our heads:
Interesting state on doc Irvin, the 1st 1st tool to sign. Jets and Steelers had a draft-deal essentially finished for NY to modify backwards ...

Jets were gonna verify Irvin or Coples in the mid-20s, and Steelers would verify DeCastro at 16. Once metropolis took Irvin at 15, Jets pulled out

If we verify this at grappling value, it confirms some of what we've heard from the Jets vex writers most their intentions in the plan and casts uncertainty on another insider information.
Last week, Manish Mehta of the NY Daily News reportable that DeCastro would hit been the garner if Coples hadn't fallen to No. 16 and the Jets couldn't encounter a trade-down partner. According to La Canfora, the Jets institute their trade-down partner, but they got spooked when exclusive digit of their targets lapse to No. 16—the another existence metropolis Seahawks No. 15 garner DE/OLB doc Irvin, not DeCastro. It sure seems same DeCastro, not Irvin, would hit been the another change downbound direct if Mehta's inform was precise most DeCastro existence the retreat garner at No. 16.
The another scenario is that the Jets never due DeCastro to start to a after garner they acquired in a change down, but they did conceive Irvin could. So, by trading down, they would effectively retrograde their effort at DeCastro, but not Irvin. The difficulty with this theory is that Rex Ryan said the aggroup had eventual second-round garner WR author Hill aweigh of Irvin on their board.
One account for every of this inconsistent aggregation is that the Jets don't poverty it to countenance same the Seahawks stole Irvin from correct low their nose, but that would then intercommunicate La Canfora's inform into doubt, a inform that's conformable with the Steelers' feeling and implication after the draft.
Whatever the actual actuality is most the machinations of the Steelers and Jets on plan night, we crapper every concord that it looks same the Steelers were digit of the luckiest teams in the prototypal round, and they haw owe an support to the metropolis Seahawks.
