The Jets acquired this pick as part of the conditional agreement of the trade in which Favre's performance resulted in the Packers receiving the Jets' 2009 third-round selection, coupled with Favre retiring after the 2008 season. However, this pick has been returned to the Packers.

New England to Baltimore: New England traded a conditional 7th round 2010 draft choice to Baltimore for LB Prescott Burgess.^[21] Burgess was placed on the Patriots' practice squad, but was claimed by Baltimore after their game against the Patriots, thus nullifying the trade as Burgess did not meet the condition for playing time.

New York Jets to Philadelphia: The Jets traded a 2009 fifth-round selection and a conditional 2010 selection to Philadelphia for CB Lito Sheppard. Depending on Sheppard's playing time in 2009 and if Sheppard is not released by the Jets prior to the beginning of a contract extension beginning in March 2010, the selection could be in the second, third, or fourth round. If Sheppard is released prior to March 2010 and he plays less than 40% of the Jets defensive snaps in 2009, the Eagles will receive no 2010 pick from the Jets through this trade.

New York Jets to Cleveland. The Jets traded a conditional third round pick, as well as a fifth round pick, WR Chansi Stuckey, and LB Jason Trusnik, to Cleveland for WR Braylon Edwards. The third-round pick can become a second-round pick based on Edwards' performance with New York.

New York Jets to Detroit. The Jets traded an undisclosed 2010 draft choice to Detroit for quarterback Kevin O'Connell.
