Jets trade for Broncos' Ryan Clady to replace D’Brickashaw

That was fast.

On the same day D'Brickashaw Ferguson made his retirement official, the Jets traded for his replacement. Gang Green has dealt for former Broncos tackle Ryan Clady, according to source. Gang Green is giving up a 2016 fifth-round pick in exchange for the tackle and a 2016 seventh-rounder, according to a source.

Clady, who has played seven seasons in the NFL, started 16 games last season for the Broncos.

Clady was scheduled to earn $9.5 million in 2016 and $10 million in 2017, but is re-structuring his deal, the Daily News learned. Gang Green had been talking with the Broncos and feared they had lost leverage once news of Ferguson's retirement surfaced.
