Trader consensus prices Texas Tech EDGE David Bailey at full implied probability for the 2026 NFL Draft's 2nd overall pick after the New York Jets officially selected him early in Round 1 on April 23, addressing a critical pass-rush deficiency following a dismal 2025 campaign that earned them the slot behind the Raiders. Bailey's elite college production—highlighted by 16 sacks and top pass-rush grades in his lone Red Raiders season—plus explosive combine measurables, positioned him as the premier edge prospect, edging out Ohio State's Arvell Reese per pre-pick reports from insiders like Ian Rapoport. With the selection confirmed via league announcement, no realistic scenarios remain to challenge this outcome barring unprecedented reversals like trades or disqualifications.
