The New York Jets hit plenty of needs at the 2025 NFL draft.

At the top, first-round rookie Armand Membou completes a promising offensive line.

But there is always room for improvement.

While quarterback Justin Fields should feel confident about his O-line in New York with Membou's addition, help could still be provided elsewhere. Specifically at wide receiver.

That's where Pro Football Focus still sees a need.

PFF named every NFL's team's top need following the draft and the Jets' receiver room was the choice--A clear pick.

While there is excitement in New York for Garrett Wilson to be the No. 1 playmaker on offense once again, he could stand to use some help.

At the draft, the Jets did select wide receiver Arian Smith from Georgia.

It's possible he has a strong rookie year, but fourth-round picks don't inspire much optimism at first. But Smith and the likes of Allen Lazard, Malachi Corley and free-agent addition Josh Reynolds will get a chance to prove PFF and show Wilson does have a strong No. 2 receiver next to him in New York's offense.

PFF's full breakdown on the Jets can be found below:

The Jets are missing a running mate for Garrett Wilson. Davante Adams was the team's only receiver other than Wilson to earn a PFF receiving grade above 64.0 last season. Allen Lazard remains, but he recorded just a 63.3 mark. They’ll also need much more from 2024 third-round pick Malachi Corley, who recorded a 57.2 PFF receiving grade in his rookie year on just 48 receiving snaps.
