New York Jets What Jets might do at wide receiver in 2026 NFL Draft By Brian Costello Published April 6, 2026, 5:13 p.m. ET Jets general manager Darren Mougey speaking at a press conference. Bill Kostroun/New York Post If you had to point to the biggest Jets need, wide receiver is it.
The team has Garrett Wilson as its No. 1 and then a drop-off to AD Mitchell and another to Isaiah Williams and Arian Smith.
The Jets are not expected to use the No. 2 pick on a receiver, but it would not be a surprise if they use the No. 16 pick on one.
