The New York Jets have traded a fifth-round pick in the 2010 NFL Draft to the Pittsburgh Steelers for wide receiver Santonio Holmes.  The NFL also announced that Holmes would be suspended for the first four games of the 2010 season for violating the leagues substance abuse policy.

The trade will have us adjusting the Jets pick of Notre Dame wide receiver Golden Tate in our mock draft.  It also makes wide receiver a position of need for the Steelers.
