Vanderbilt· 6'4"· 211 lb· 4.64s 40
A press-man strong Cover-1/Cover-3 defense, specializing in physical play and minimizing big plays, that values tall, long-armed corners on the boundary.
Year 1 as a rotational boundary corner with the upside to develop into a starting press-man CB.
An off-zone heavy scheme that frequently asks its corners to transition quickly or cover smaller, quicker receivers in space.
Williams is best suited for a system that leverages his size, length, and physicality in press coverage on the perimeter.
Selected #45 overall in Round 2 of the 2019 NFL Draft by New England Patriots out of Vanderbilt.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
