Grading the Jets' pick of D'Angelo Ponds in the 2026 NFL Draft

Yahoo Sports

The Jets selected Indiana wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft — here's how we grade the pick.

The Jets selected Indiana cornerback D'Angelo Ponds with the No. 50 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft . Let's break down how Gang Green did on Day 2...

There's top-15 talent with Ponds. He's physical. Good in both man and zone.

Can press. Really impressive ball skills. There's very little the corner can't do.

Ponds was there for the Jets with the 50th pick because he's 5-8 and 182pounds. That scares teams off. Aaron Glenn , who enjoyed a very successful NFL career, was a 5-9.
