Meet the Jets’ draft picks as training camp begins

The Jets never are short of storylines to watch at training camp, but this year, the rookies — headlined by Sam Darnold — especially will be worth keeping an eye on as the team looks to rebuild and improve on its 5-11 record from last year. Here’s a quick refresher of the Jets’ incoming draft class:

Sam Darnold, QB, USC

Round/pick: First round, No. 3 overall

Height: 6-3

Weight: 225

2017 stats: 63.1 completion percentage, 4,143 yards, 26 touchdowns, 13 interceptions.

Is Darnold finally the answer to all those years of mediocrity under center for the Jets?
