Episode notes
Jets Hold Draft Leverage
- The New York Jets control massive 2026 draft capital with four top-45 picks and many later selections.
- Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks say that gives the Jets flexibility to build the roster before committing to a quarterback.
Delay Drafting A Quarterback
- Do build the roster and delay drafting a quarterback until the team is ready instead of chasing one too early.
- Bucky Brooks recommends using picks to upgrade personnel first and find a QB later via draft or free agency.
Protect Your Top Running Back
- Franchise-tag Breece Hall to ensure you keep your best running back while you use draft capital elsewhere.
- Daniel Jeremiah argues Hall is the top back available and worth the tag to secure one offensive piece.
