The 16th overall pick of this year's NFL Draft, Kenyon Sadiq offers an athletic profile that few if any tight ends can match. Sadiq ran a 4.39 at the combine and had a 431/2-inch vertical jump. Sadiq's college production profile at Oregon wasn't quite as dazzling.

Negative signalProjection

Sadiq's elite athleticism offset by weak college production and crowded Jets target tree.

The 16th overall NFL Draft pick, Sadiq possesses an elite athletic profile (4.39 40-time, 43.5-inch vertical) but his college production at Oregon was underwhelming: 51 catches, 560 receiving yards, and eight touchdowns as a junior, averaging just 1.62 yards per route run (PFF). Playing for the Jets with Geno Smith at quarterback, Sadiq must compete for targets with Garrett Wilson, rookie Omar Cooper Jr., and fellow TE Mason Taylor. While his athleticism could help him impact immediately, Pat Fitzmaurice projects him more likely as a play for the future, profiling as a low-end TE2 or high-end TE3 and undraftable in most redraft leagues in 2026.
