Cooper Jr. preferred to Strickland but do-not-draft at 108–109 ADP; Jets coaching risk.

Fernando Mendoza prefers Omar Cooper Jr. over Sadi Strickland but still places him on the do-not-draft list due to steep ADP (108–109) and Jets uncertainty. The risk of new coaching staff (Aaron Glenn may not retain his job) potentially drafting a high-end receiver talent in 2027 (Jeremiah Smith or Cam Coleman) could render Cooper Jr. a tertiary option, making his current draft cost unjustifiable.
