0:00On April 9th, in a fresh, mock draft for the 2026 NFL Draft, the New York Jets grabbed Arville Reese, that beast-edge Russia from Ohio, state with a second overall pick. Then they shocked everyone by snagging Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson at number 16. Coming off of brutal 3-14 season, the Jets are all about rebuilding from the ground up. Reese is a 6-foot-4, 243-pound freak with 4.46 feet. The kind of defender who can lock down any front 7. Simpson threw for 3,567 yards and 28 touchdowns last year, but with just 15 college starts, he's got. That raw upside teams crave. Fans and analysts are split some. Call the Simpson pick a huge reach since he was projected later in the first round. Others say it's smart aggression, especially with teams like the Cardinals lurking to grab him as their next guy. His Jets strategy clears house on vets for a 2-3-year window, betting big on youth.

1:01Pairing Reese's defensive fire with Simpson's arm could set them up for 2028 contention. The Mox got the community buzzing now, voting on the next picks. Jets fans, what's your take on this bull blueprint? That wraps NFL news today. Brought to you with AI.
