Jacksonville Jaguars received Dwight Lowery in the deal with New York Jets. Lowery played three Jaguars seasons and started 23 of his 25 games from 2011 through 2013 while recording multiple interceptions. Jacksonville obtained sustained starting safety value for a very late pick. That outcome supports a A- for Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jacksonville Jaguars Win verdict weighs documented games, starts, production and connected draft value.

Trade Analysis
The Exchange
On 2011-09-03, Jacksonville acquired safety Dwight Lowery from the Jets for a 2012 seventh-round pick. The result is best measured through the service each club actually received afterward, including games, starts, production and draft value that can be connected directly to the exchanged assets. That approach keeps a smaller transaction proportional to what it ultimately produced.
Jacksonville Jaguars Return
Jacksonville Jaguars received Dwight Lowery in the deal with New York Jets. Lowery played three Jaguars seasons and started 23 of his 25 games from 2011 through 2013 while recording multiple interceptions. Jacksonville obtained sustained starting safety value for a very late pick. That outcome supports a A- for Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jacksonville Jaguars Win verdict weighs documented games, starts, production and connected draft value.
New York Titans/Jets Return
New York Jets received 2012 7th round pick (214th overall subsequently traded, Tim Fugger) in the deal with Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jets later used the seventh-rounder with Drew Stanton to move up one round. New York retained some draft value, but the pick functioned mainly as a secondary piece in a later transaction. That outcome supports a C+ for New York Jets. The Jacksonville Jaguars Win verdict weighs documented games, starts, production and connected draft value.
Value in Hindsight
Jacksonville's return is stronger because Lowery became an actual multi-season starter. The Jets did preserve flexibility, but their downstream value was smaller and less direct. The comparison remains centered on duration, starts, production and useful draft outcomes. A modest trade does not need a dramatic grade spread unless the documented returns clearly moved in opposite directions.
Final Verdict
The final call is Jacksonville Jaguars Win. Jacksonville Jaguars receives A-, and New York Jets receives C+. The decision follows the contribution each side received and the downstream value that remained connected to the original package. Those grades keep the result grounded in realized football value and appropriately scaled to the size of the deal.
