Jets’ sudden Ed Oliver NFL draft buzz: Legit or Raiders smokescreen?

The Jets’ draft may feature an Oliver twist.

There has been buzz in recent days that the Jets may be interested in selecting Houston defensive lineman Ed Oliver with the No. 3-overall pick. For months, the belief has been if the Jets could not trade back, they would take Alabama defensive lineman Quinnen Williams, Kentucky edge rusher Josh Allen or Ohio State edge rusher Nick Bosa, if he fell to them.

But now there is speculation around the league that Oliver may be the choice. Knowing what to believe the week before the 2019 NFL draft is a difficult task.
