If you all don't start topics, then that means I have to. Shit, aren't you all tired of me yet??? I'm tired of me! Anyhow.
Mike Greenberg said he thinks Jets want OT at 13th overall. Let's assume that is factual and get logical.
Packers get
Jets 13th overall
Jets 2024 4th round (conditional)
Jets get
OT Yosh Nijman
QB Aaron Rodgers
Side Nugget: Aaron Rodgers also has sent signals to Jets that he's not coming until May anyway so no rush.

As for Nijman, the Packers have benched him 3 times in the last two years (one might of been due to injury), so the Packers seem to see Nijman as a backup, so I doubt with the one year left in his contract the Jets are suddenly going to give up a 1st round OT for him.
But I'll counter your trade idea with my own.
Jets get Rodgers now... and Packers get no 2023 draft picks but the Jets 1st and 2nd 2024 draft picks.
This gives the Jets the best shot at winning the Super Bowl this year, and locks in the 1st rounder for the Packers (no conditions which the Jets might not make. Plus while the Packers aren't tanking, they are rebuilding their cap space and don't appear to be trying to win this year but rebuilding their cap.
Also, some are suggesting the 2024 draft looks much better than the 2023 draft... though I think they might be judging drafts only by QBs though.
This year draft seem pretty loaded at certain positions Edge, TE and maybe CB
