ArDarius Stewart and Chad Hansen

The New York Jets selected ArDarius Stewart in the third round of the NFL Draft this year and drafted Chad Hansen in the fourth.

In his senior season at Alabama, Stewart hauled in 54 passes for 864 yards and eight touchdowns.  Stewart is known for his toughness and work ethic. He should compete throughout the preseason and earn a role in this Jets offense.

Chad Hansen enters the NFL after one year at Idaho State and two seasons at California. Hansen had quite a junior season in 2016. The Golden Bear had 92 receptions for 1,249 yards and 11 touchdowns.

The Jets hope that Hansen can bring that kind of production to the Meadowlands, carve out a role in the offense, and build chemistry with their young quarterbacks.
