Jets' Draft Haul: Bailey, Sadiq, Cooper

The New York Jets made a splash in the 2026 NFL Draft, acquiring three first-round picks. They selected edge rusher David Bailey from Texas Tech at number two, tight end Kenyon Sadiq from Oregon at sixteen, and wide receiver Omar Cooper Junior from Indiana at thirty. Cooper, who excelled at Indiana with Fernando Mendoza, is expected to boost the Jets offense significantly. The team also signed Geno Smith to bridge the gap at quarterback, setting the stage for a franchise QB search in 2027. With these moves, the Jets are rapidly rebuilding their roster, focusing on both offense and defense.
