Risk Flags
4- Draft Capital
Signed by the Jets as a 2026 UDFA (3yr/$3.1M, only $262.5K guaranteed) after going undrafted. Zero draft capital means no organizational investment guaranteeing a roster spot, let alone offensive snaps.
- Physical Profile
Measured 5'9"/183 with a 4.55 forty and an alarming 3.66 Relative Athletic Score at his pro day. Lack of size and play strength caps his ceiling and pigeonholes him into a slot-only role at the next level.
- Roster Security
As an undrafted rookie he must beat out other depth WRs (e.g. Omar Cooper) just to make the 53. His realistic path to the roster is as a return specialist/special-teams ace, not a receiving contributor.
- Target Volume
The Jets' receiving hierarchy is led by Garrett Wilson, leaving Lacy buried on the depth chart with no clear path to meaningful offensive targets as a rookie.
