The Jets must feel pretty good about the depth of defensive talent in this draft class.
There is a 'good chance' the Jets are going to trade down from the No. 3 pick, according to a report from ESPN.
The report says there is one team already under the impression the team has a deal worked out to trade down if defensive lineman Quinnen Williams is available at No. 3.
Sounds like there’s a pretty good chance the #Jets trade down. One team already under the impression the Jets have a deal worked out with another team if Q Williams is available at 3. Keep an eye on Buffalo (9). Jets could get edge rusher or OLM in trade down.

The Bills are apparently a team interested in moving up to get the pick.
New York has made some pretty big moves this offseason, including signing middle linebacker C.J. Mosley to a five-year, $85 million deal.
With the addition of a player like that, the Jets have a solid man in the middle of the defense to build around and there appears to be plenty of talent in the draft to add this year.
While there has been talk about the Jets taking Williams themselves, Ed Oliver is another player who would be very disruptive rushing from the middle of the defensive line.
There are also several pass rushers who figure to be near the bottom of the top 10 like Montez Sweat, Brian Burns and Christian Wilkins.
The draft starts at 8 p.m. ET.
