The NY Jets’ positions of need are aplenty. While it is never wise to draft solely based on need, it is still a factor that must be considered. Let’s rank the Jets’ positions of need from most to least important as they enter the 2025 NFL draft. The idea is to use this list as a tiebreaker if the Jets have two players graded equally across two different positions (throughout all seven rounds). This list is not intended to merely rank the positions on the Jets’ roster from best to worst.

As we slog through the dog days of draft season – you know, this bleak period in April when we spend each day flip-flopping our opinions because there is nothing actually new happening – I figured it was time to shed light on a different storyline that deserves our attention. The New York Jets’ identity crisis. And I’m not talking about whether they want to be a ground-and-pound offense or if they should run more man coverage. I’m talking about the symbol that defines the organization’s existence.
