  • New York Jets

It looked like Bailey was trending toward being the pick at No. 2, but it's back to being up in the air. It's not confirmed whether or not he hears New York calling on draft night, but it remains a possibility. He would immediately be their top pass rusher and be a sizeable upgrade to their defensive front.

  • Arizona Cardinals

If Reese goes to New York, Bailey would be squarely in play for Arizona at 3rd overall. Putting him next to Josh Sweat would stabilize their pass rush in an instant. The Cardinals could use just about any defensive help they can get, and snagging arguably the top edge rusher is definitely not a bad idea.

  • Tennessee Titans

Jermaine Johnson II was a decent buy-low add, but Tennessee still needs to bolster its defensive front. If they stray away from taking Love, Bailey could be their next option. They might have trouble turning down the chance to add a dynamite pass rusher in the 1st round, which could lead to the Texas Tech EDGE being the pick.
