For fans of the New York Jets, the most wonderful time of the year has finally arrived: optimism season.
After amassing a universally celebrated 2022 draft class, Gang Green is riding high on a wave of confidence and hope the franchise hasn’t felt since its last playoff appearance in 2010. General manager Joe Douglas was aggressive in trade-ups for the second year in a row, using his surplus of draft capital to land immediate impact players throughout the top four rounds.
New York’s seven total picks were all selected within the top-120 of the draft, an indication that the team had respectable grades on every prospect.
