There is a chance the Jets pick twice in the top-10 of the 2022 NFL draft.
New York owns its original first-round pick, as well as the Seahawks’ first-round pick following the Jamal Adams trade. Right now, those picks equate to the Nos. 4 and 5 selections in the draft. The Seahawks pick is actually the No. 4 pick after they dropped to 3-8 on the year, but they have a worse strength of schedule than the Jets.
The Jets might not even be the only team in the 2022 draft with two top-10 picks. The Eagles, who the Jets face in Week 13, and Giants also have a shot, as things currently stand.
As wild as it sounds, picking twice in the top-10 isn’t that uncommon in NFL history. There have been 17 other instances since 1967, according to ESPN.
Here, we’ll look at what teams with two top-10 selections have done in the past. However, draft picks don’t always work out the way teams want them to. Only 10 players from the 34 on this list made multiple Pro Bowls, and only four made the Hall of Fame.
With that said, let’s see what happened the 17 other times a team had two top-10 picks.
