Lets take a closer look at your thoughts here. A team, the jets, is going to trade away a player that some here will trade whatever to get and then as part of that trade the jets would take a player that most believe is not as good as Adams, Woods, to replace Adams as they're starter. That would be like the chiefs trading Mahomes to the steelers and part of the trade the chiefs get Devin Hodges to be their starter.
Now the Gallup part. The Cowboys would trade the starting #2 WR creating a problem there plus a 1st round pick that will eliminate the best pick next draft to help fill more of the needs on defense not to mention then having to fill a need at WR. That helps one position but hurts another and doesn't cure all the other problems on defense while now creating one on offense. Before you jump back with Lamb, Lamb spent most of his college games playing the slot and that's where the Cowboys have him penciled in for but you say they could move him outside but then who is the slot receiver? You've just down graded the WR corp.
Lastly when these trade talks started a couple of weeks ago Jones said that the Cowboys were no longer interested in trading for Adams yet people here still play this silly game.

I don’t see how you can misinterpret what I wrote.
The Jets wouldn’t be trading Adams for Woods because they think he’s an equal talent. Woods would presumably be involved because trading Adams would create a hole in their secondary. Woods would serve as the interim starter (or possibly long term starter). There is a practical roster management aspect to this; I don’t see any incumbents on their team that would fill that role. Woods at least would provide substantial starting experience and is still a relatively young player.
In terms of Gallup, yeah, you would impact the quality depth at WR but you would be substantially upgrading the secondary (and the defense as a unit I would argue). Any trade for Adams will likely require multiple high picks or young starting-caliber players in return.
You have to give something to get something. On its face I would argue Dallas’ depth at WR is better across the board versus our safety depth.
All of this is driven by whether the Jets think they can come to terms with Adams or whether he’s even worth it.
