Jets Cancel Bailey Visit, Draft Speculation Soars

On April 16th, the New York Jets are gearing up for the 2026 NFL Draft with two first round picks, including the number two overall slot.

That's prime position to grab a game changer.

But a recent move has fans buzzing just a week out.

They canceled a top 30 pre-draft visit with Texas Tech Ed rusher, David Bailey, who was set for Thursday.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Jets already have everything they need on him, so no point in bringing him in.

Analysts see Bailey as a strong match for New York's past rush woes.

Last season, the Jets ranked 31st in sacks, with just 26 and 27th in pressure rate.

Bailey led the country with a 20.2% pressure rate and tied for the FBS lead with 14.5 sacks.

Melkhyl per junior even mocked Bailey to the Jets in his latest projection, picking proven production over raw potential from guys like Ohio States.

Arvel Reese. It could mean they're passing on him or they're so sold they don't need more intel.

Either way, we'll know for sure when the draft kicks off on April 23rd.
