6. New York Jets

30. There is no doubt quarterback will be a huge topic of discussion going into 2017 for the New York Jets. At the same time they just invested a 2nd rounder in Christian Hackenberg that must be explored. Besides, they have problems developing on defense. If Todd Bowles is going to stay the head coach, then they need to fix what will be his bread and butter moving forward. It should start with giving Leonard Williams help up front. <p>The Jets have lacked a true outside pass rusher presence for years. An edge man who understands how to get after the quarterback. Tim Williams features the exact sort of skill set they’re looking for. He’s a quick, athletic and explosive linebacker who can get up the field in a hurry. Tackles have a hard time stopping him from getting around the edge or slicing back inside because of the speed and instinct he has for getting into the backfield.</p>. OLB. Alabama. Tim Williams . 6. player
