Jets 2019 NFL Draft Rumors: 'Pretty Good Chance' NY Trades Down from No. 3

Joseph ZuckerApr 25, 2019

The New York Jets own the No. 3 overall pick in the 2019 NFL draft, but they might have to wait a little bit longer before making their first selection Thursday night.

ESPN.com's Rich Cimini reported that some inside the league believe the Jets will trade down in the first round. Cimini added one franchise is "already under the impression the Jets have a deal worked out with another team" should Quinnen Williams be available when the Jets are on the clock.

New York is in a position where it clearly has needs to address in the 2019 draft but doesn't necessarily need to keep its first-round pick in order to adequately address the biggest holes in its roster.

Sports Illustrated's Andy Benoit and Gary Gramling cited cornerback, wide receiver and edge-rusher as three areas for the Jets to target.

In his final big board, Bleacher Report's Matt Miller listed seven players at each of those three positions among his top 50 players. New York could fall back into the middle of the first round without sacrificing much value.

Cimini listed the Buffalo Bills as one potential trading partner for the Jets.

The Bills selected Josh Allen with the No. 7 pick in 2018, so they obviously wouldn't move up to get a quarterback. Williams would make sense as a replacement for the retired Kyle Williams, or Buffalo could look to an edge-rusher after finishing 19th in adjusted sack rate, per Football Outsiders.
