Later, they traded Pics number 33 and number 179 to the San Francisco 49ers for number 30 snagging wide receiver. Omar Cooper Jr. right there. On day two, the Jets traded back from number 44 with the Detroit Lions to number 50, picking up an extra fourth rounder along the way. At number 50, they selected corner bag D'Angelo Ponds and fans are hyped about that defensive addition.
