The New York Jets have selected TE Kenyon Sadiq with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Fantasy Impact:
Sadiq becomes the first tight end taken off the board as he heads to the Jets with the 16th overall pick. Drafted out of Oregon, Sadiq has the frame of a tight end with the athleticism of a wide receiver and, despite his average size (6-3, 241) for the position, also has a history of being a very good blocker. He averaged only 21.2 yards receiving per game in college, but his combine elevated his stock - especially his 4.39 40-yard dash. Sadiq also has history of being used as an edge-setting blocker and lead option with the running game for the backs and quarterback-designed runs - and could be used similarly in New York.
