Jets Eye Makai Lemon for Wilson's Complement

0:00On April 5th, the New York Jets wide receiver group had a rough 2025 season, scraping by with low numbers across the board. Garrett Wilson topped him with just 395 yards, even though he missed half the games. Rookie Tide and Mason Taylor came next at 369, and running back Breeze Hall 3rd with 350. That's a far cry from 2024, when Wilson crushed it with over 1,100 yards, and Devonte Adams added 854. Now the Jets are hunting for a solid complement to Wilson, and the 2026 draft looks promising. Former USC star, McCuy Limon, a projected first-rounder, is set to visit them ahead of their 16th overall pick. He's already stopped by the Chiefs, and has meetings lined up with the Dolphins, Giants, and Commanders too. Fans and analysts are buzzing about Limon's potential impact, especially since he's ranked 9th on Mel Kuiper's bigboard, and could be the top-wide-out. Taken, Lassie's and he hauled in 108 catches for 1,156 yards, and 11 scores in 12 games, earning a top 4.

1:06PFF grade among college receivers. He's drawing eyes from teams like the Browns at 6, Commanders at 7, Chiefs at 9, Dolphins at 11, and others in the teens, so the Jets. Might need to trade up from 16 to snack him early. At 5 foot 11 and 192 pounds, Limon's got elite ball skills and smarts, perfect for the slot next to Wilson on the outside. He could lock down that role and boost the offense for years, giving New York a fresh spark heading into next season.
