2026 NFL Draft: Jets get big names in latest Daniel Jeremiah mock projection
The New York Jets may not have a top pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, but the team's two 1st-round picks could allow them to land a pair of big-name players in the form of Daniel Jeremiah's latest.
NFL Network Draft Guru has the Ohio State linebacker going to New York with the second overall pick.With choice no.
Reese is a versatile defender who can play on or off the ball in the Jets defense for years to come.In 2025, he had 6.5 sacks and 10 tackles for loss in 14 games.
With Cooper, his strong ability helped Indiana win the National Championship last season, and he was able to help Garrett Wilson in wide areas of the Jets' forward end.In 16 games played last year, Cooper had 69 catches, 937 yards and 13 touchdowns.
For the two variants of Jeremiah's mockery of Jeremiah's distribution, see below:
Round 1, pick 2: LB Arvell Reese (Ohio State)
I'm going back and forth between Reese and Texas Tech's David Bailey here.Reese, with experience playing on the line and off the ball, gives the Jets more flexibility in their 3-4 defense.
1st round, pick 16: WR Omar Cooper Jr.(Indiana)
Cooper will be a formidable complement to senior receiver Garrett Wilson.The Hoosier is a pass-rushing former catcher who can play inside and outside.
