Despite holding the second-overall selection at the upcoming 2026 NFL draft, the jury is still out on who the New York Jets could take with their top pick.<\/p>\n

Not only do the Jets have questions around the No. 2 selection, New York holds another first rounder at No. 16.<\/p>\n

Where could the Jets go with those? NFL Network’s draft guru Daniel Jeremiah<\/a> took an early offseason swing at some projections and those start and end with Ohio State.<\/p>\n

Starting on the defensive side, the mocked pick at No. 2 is pass rusher Arvell Reese. The next at No. 16 sees wide receiver Carnell Tate head to New York.<\/p>\n

Jeremiah’s breakdown on both prospects to the Jets can be found below:<\/p>\n

No. 2: Ohio State Edge Arvell Reese\"Ohio<\/p>\n

Ohio State Buckeyes linebacker Arvell Reese (8) reacts during the game against the Wisconsin Badgers at Camp Randall Stadium on Saturday, Oct. 18, 2025 in Madison, Wisconsin.<\/p>\n

The Jets have needs all over their defense. Reese is versatile and athletic. I think he\u2019ll benefit from working off the edge full time after also playing off-ball linebacker during his Buckeyes career.<\/p>\n

No. 16: Ohio State WR Carnell Tate\"Ohio<\/p>\n

Ohio State Buckeyes wide receiver Carnell Tate (17) celebrates a touchdown Saturday, Dec. 6, 2025, during the Big Ten football championship against the Indiana Hoosiers at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.<\/p>\n

This would be a value pick, but we see talented receivers go in this area of the draft year after year (Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Emeka Egbuka, Justin Jefferson). The Jets pair former Ohio State star Garrett Wilson with a fellow Buckeye.<\/p>\n
