Having dangled star wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson in front of the Ravens, the New York Jets apparently are exploring other markets and other draft picks this week.
Reports out of New York yesterday indicated the Jets have shopped Johnson to the Washington Redskins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Redskins, holding the second and third picks of next month's NFL draft, reportedly are not interested.
The Bucs, who hold the 13th and 27th picks in the first round, might be.
The Jets are trying to collect enough picks to trade up to the top four, ostensibly to get Penn State defensive end Courtney Brown. Bill Parcells, director of football operations, has talked to the Ravens about the fifth pick at least twice.
