Omar Cooper Jr.: Jets Select Omar Cooper Jr. at No. 30 Overall in NFL Draft
The New York Jets have selected wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. with the 30th overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. New York traded the 33rd and 179th picks in order to move up and select Cooper at No. 30. The move has significant contract implications, as first-round picks are eligible for a fifth-year option. The Jets will now have control over Cooper through 2030, giving them a talented wide receiver to pair with Garrett Wilson. Cooper had an impressive final season at Indiana, catching passes from Fernando Mendoza in the national championship-winning Hoosiers offense. Across 16 games last year, he caught 69 passes, 937 yards, and 13 touchdowns. The Jets continue to supply quarterback Geno Smith with a plethora of weapons, adding Cooper and fellow first-round pick Kenyon Sadiq to an offense that already features Wilson, Breece Hall, and Mason Taylor. As it stands, Cooper ranks as the overall WR50 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
