The Jets drafted Alabama defensive tackle Quinnen Williams with the third overall pick of the NFL Draft on Thursday night..
The 6-3, 303-pound Williams had a breakout sophomore season in which he had eight sacks and 19 1/2 tackles for loss against some of college football’s top offensive linemen. He has a complete package of quickness, power and instincts and can make an impact in both the run and pass game.
Williams is expected to pair with another Williams on the Jets' defensive line -- Leonard Williams -- to improve their pass-rush and run defense.
