Jets Trade Up for Bailey | New York Jets News
Description
The Jets just pulled off a blockbuster move, snagging defensive end David Bailey with the second overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft to fix their collapsing pass rush. Bailey, a monster at Texas Tech with 19.5 tackles for loss and 14.5 sacks last season, is expected to dominate right away — and some analysts even rank him second in the entire draft for long-term impact. With Quinnen Williams gone and head coach Aaron Glenn now calling the defensive plays, Bailey could be the cornerstone that turns the Jets’ defense around after a brutal 3-14 campaign.
