Jets 2026 NFL draft target: Scouting report for DT Jordan Van Den Berg

Georgia Tech defensive tackle Jordan Van Den Berg could be a player to watch for the New York Jets ahead of the 2026 NFL draft.

As things stand, the Jets hold nine picks in the draft, including two first-rounders (No. 2 and No. 16), and two second-rounders (No. 33 and No. 44).

If things hold there, general manager Darren Mougey and the Jets front office could have plenty of options to consider when turning in their selection cards.
