This is an example of "hey I have heard of that guy we should get him!". He was moved for a 6th, it would be like us trading John Ross for a 6th and a bunch of teams getting pissed off they didn't go acquire John Ross. A bad Jets team didn't just trade him because they were bursting at the seams with talent. He was still on his rookie contract and by trading him they actually ate more of a cap hit than leaving him on their roster with the acceleration of the signing bonus. It makes more sense for them to keep him as a back up rather than trade him, which makes you wonder why would the Jets want him gone so badly.
None of this screams "Game changer" to me.
