2026 Draft note
Sadiq is a unicorn athlete at the tight end position. Per Player Profiler, he tested at the 100th percentile in the 40-yard dash, 100th percentile in Speed Score, 100th percentile in Burst Score, and 99th percentile in Catch Radius—a Vernon Davis-level athletic profile. Oregon deployed him accordingly, lining him up in the slot at a 90th-percentile rate (58.5%) among all tight ends in the PFF dataset. This isn’t a blocking tight end who happened to run fast at the combine; this is a movable chess piece who can stress defenses from every alignment. The Jets already spent a Day 2 pick on Mason Taylor last year, and Taylor led the team in receptions (44) as a rookie. The bigger issue is the quarterback situation. Geno Smith is a bridge, this offense ranked 29th in scoring last year, and target competition with Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall will cap volume early. For Sadiq, back-end TE2 with splash weeks driven by that absurd athletic profile.
