The New York Jets have some work to do in the 2026 NFL Draft, and one of the biggest needs that will likely be addressed is the quarterback position.
Aaron Glenn has indicated the team will likely add a rookie. But the question now becomes when that rookie will be taken, and who will it be? According to ESPN's Rich Cimini , the Jets are predicted to take their QB in the fourth round, with the 6-foot-5 Penn State quarterback Drew Allar being the one fans should keep a close eye on this draft season.
Jets linked to Drew Allar with likely 4th round pick "Fill in the blank: The Jets will draft a quarterback in the __ round. Fourth," Cimini writes. "Keep an eye out for Drew Allar (Penn State), who recently held a private workout at the Jets' facility.
" Cimini's commentary on the Jets' draft plans is very noteworthy for two reasons. He is mentioning the fourth round, which is the Jets' first picks after their top-four selections, as the time for New York to add a quarterback.
