New York Jets would change history if given chance in 2019 NFL Draft

Usually, you shouldn’t do any “re-draft” scenarios until three years after, but it was too tempting not to look back at the 2019 NFL Draft.

Back a year ago the New York Jets held the third overall pick after a disappointing 4-12 year. The team wanted to trade back, but a deal didn’t materialize, despite some buzz on draft day.

So instead the Jets selected defensive lineman Quinnen Williams out of Alabama. He became the sixth defensive linemen and the 12th defensive player selected by Gang Green since 2007.

Quinnen played in 13 games and started 9 of them in his rookie campaign.
