After finally agreeing to a trade with the Green Bay Packers for four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers, the New York Jets are close to having it all. 

But, apparently, one AFC East rival was looking to get in the way of that by disrupting the Jets' plans during the 2023 NFL Draft.

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick allowed the Pittsburgh Steelers to move up to the No. 14 overall pick in the draft last week to allow them to draft Georgia offensive lineman Broderick Jones, just one spot ahead of the Jets, according to The Washington Post.

In return, the Patriots got the 17th pick and a fourth-round pick. The Jets, who had the No. 13 pick but moved to 15h after trading for Rodgers, instead selected Iowa State edge rusher Will McDonald.
