With Tony Gonzale's hands, vintage Hester/Hall-like ability to take one to the house from the back of the end zone, and the ability to run a crisp route if need be.

You might want to Google Saquan Barkley film and his ridiculous Combine numbers

—

On Thursday, Barkley bench-pressed 225 pounds 29 times, tied for the most by any running back here. Browns tackle Joe Thomas, a 10-time Pro Bowler, only benched it 28 times at the 2007 combine.

Then on Friday, Barkley’s 10-yard split was a blazing 1.54 seconds. That was one hundredth of a second better than Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson’s 1.55 in 2008.

In the 40-yard dash, Barkley recorded a time of 4.40 seconds, the second-best time among the running backs. Devin Hester, known as one of the fastest kick returners in NFL history, had a time of 4.43 in 2006.

Finally, Barkley’s vertical jump came in at 41 inches, the best at the combine so far. Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones had a vertical of 38 ½ inches in 2011.

Impressive. Most impressive.

If he drops to a good team with a creative OC, he’ll be next to impossible to stop.

He can line up at RB, WR or slot. He has strength to pass protect and if he gets to the next level, there are very few defenders that can bring him down.

He’s a monster.

I get a Marshall Faulk/ LaDainian Tomlinson vibe from him

He could be absolutely amazing, especially with the current NFL rules

The Browns will go Darnold 1 and Barkley 4.

That would be a great round 1 for them. I really believe that despite their cursed history, Dorsey can turn that franchise around.

I just wouldn't ever draft a RB that early in today's NFL.

His numbers are impressive though.

He certainly has a chance to be better than hunt.

4.4 speed, 29 bench reps, cuts fast, breaks tackles, averaged 5.7 YPA and is a threat receiving too. This dude is the real deal.

This guy was trying to figure out what the Jets would have to give up from 6th to 3rd in January.

http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/201...s_no_3_nf.html

The No. 3 pick holds a point value of 2,200. The Jets' No. 6 pick holds a value of 1,600. So the Jets would need to make up the difference.

Without taking into consideration compensatory draft picks, the rest of the Jets' picks hold the following values:

2nd Round: 520
2nd Round (Seahawks): 400
3rd Round: 240
4th Round: 92
5th Round (Cowboys): 33
6th Round: 25
7th Round (Seahawks): 7.4

If the Jets combined their first-round pick (1,500), one of their second-round picks (400), and a fourth-round pick (92), they'd get to 1,992 points. That's still a 208 point difference.

The Jets would have to include a future draft pick to close the gap -- potentially a second- or third rounder.

Teams will use the same chart to determine the value of future picks. They'll estimate where said team will be selecting, then go from there.

Example: A future Patriots' first-round pick is valued differently than that of the Browns.

Here's what a fair trade could look like for the Jets to move from the No. 6 pick in the draft, to No. 3:

COLTS GET: Jets 2018 1st-round pick (6th overall), 2nd-round pick (50th), 4th round-pick (102nd) | 2019 2nd-round pick [estimated between No. 15 and 20]

JETS GET: Colts' 2017 1st-round pick (3rd)

Here where things get tricky, though: The Jets may not be the only team competing for that draft pick.

The Broncos (5th overall), Cardinals (15th overall), Chargers (17th overall), Bills (21st, 22nd overall) and Jaguars (29th overall) could all be in the market for a quarterback. They too could want to move up. The Jets may offer a fair trade ... but it won't matter if another team offers more.

Teams, occasionally, will bid against each other, and have to give up more for the pick than it's worth. The Jets may have to overpay if they want to ensure they get their guy.

And it's gotten to the point where they may have to.

The Jets need a franchise quarterback. No matter the cost.

Too bad Barkley wasn't headed to the NFC West, it would be fun watching him get tackled by Marcus Peters a couple games a year

The Jets are trying to move up to 1, per dan Patrick. Already called and are negotiating.

I thought it was reported they tried but decided to go to 3?
