What we learned from 3 years of Mike Maccagnan Jets drafts

Since the day he took over as general manager of the Jets in 2015, Mike Maccagnan has repeated one phrase: “Build through the draft.”

Over and over, Maccagnan has said that phrase and put it at the center of his philosophy as the Jets GM.

Maccagnan will oversee his fourth draft with the Jets next week, facing the biggest decision of his tenure with the No. 3 pick. With three drafts in the books, we thought it would be a good time to take a look at Maccagnan’s drafting with the Jets to see what trends have shown themselves over that time.
