Pick 14 (46)
Greedy Williams
CB LSU 6-1 185 LBS
From Redskins through Colts
Andraez "Greedy" Williams was given his nickname by his grandmother when he was young. Opposing quarterbacks do not disagree with that label, as he attacks the ball as if it was his alone. Williams helped Shreveport's Calvary Academy win state titles in 2013 and 2014 and secured all-state honors as a senior while receiving four-star recruiting grades. Williams also played youth football with another LSU star, linebacker Devin White. He redshirted his first year in Baton Rouge due to the team's depth at corner. When starter Kevin Tolliver was suspended for the 2017 season opener, Williams took advantage by intercepting a pass. He continued to start in every game that season, posting 38 tackles and leading the SEC with six picks and 1.3 passes defended per game (11 pass breakups). SEC coaches rightfully named him first-team all-conference for his efforts, and the Associated Press tabbed him third-team All-American. Williams was a first-team all-conference selection again in 2018, as well as an Associated Press second-team All-American after starting 12 games, posting 33 tackles, two interceptions, and nine pass breakups. He chose not to play in the team's bowl game to prepare for the draft. Williams' brother, Rodarius, was a redshirt sophomore starting cornerback at Oklahoma State in 2018, though he was born about 15 months before Greedy.

Round 3
Pick 17 (80)
Sione Takitaki
LB BYU 6-1 238 LBS
Takitaki had a tough go early in his career at BYU. He was briefly kicked off the team after being involved in a dorm fight before his freshman year. However, his teammates voted him back onto the team, so he played in 11 games as a reserve (19 tackles, four for loss, three sacks) though he was suspended again later for one game after skipping a practice. Takitaki was suspended again to start his sophomore campaign after he allegedly stole property while working as a campus custodian. He reached a plea deal in the case, but was suspended for the second half of that season for violating team rules (he had 21 tackles, seven for loss, 3.5 sacks in six games). Takitaki was married in 2016, spending that year away from football to get his academics (and life) in order. He finished his career with the Cougars on a high note, though. He started 12 of 13 games in 2017, mostly at defensive end (79 tackles, 12.5 for loss, five sacks). Takitaki then was named a team captain for his senior season, starting all 13 games at linebacker and leading the Cougars with 118 tackles (nine for loss, three sacks) -- including 19 against Western Michigan in the team's bowl game. Takitaki was an All-CIF Southern Division pick and Defensive Player of the Year as a senior at Heritage High.

Round 4
Pick 17 (119)
Sheldrick Redwine
S Miami 6-0 196 LBS
Redwine joined his Killian High School teammate, safety Jaquan Johnson, in staying home for his college career. Redwine played 12 games as a true freshman, making 14 stops as a reserve cornerback and special-teamer. Redwine started five games at cornerback as a sophomore, collecting 28 tackles and two pass breakups. The versatile defender moved from corner to safety in the spring of 2017, then started 12 games there in the fall, racking up 59 tackles (2.5 for loss), intercepting two passes with six total pass breakups. ACC coaches voted Redwine honorable mention all-conference after his senior season (64 tackles, 3.5 for loss, three sacks, three interceptions, two pass breakups in 13 starts).

Round 5
Pick 17 (155)
Mack Wilson
LB Alabama 6-1 240 LBS
Several SEC schools recruited Wilson hard after he excelled at Montgomery's Carver High School. The five-star recruit was an All-American as a junior and senior, as well as a first-team all-state pick both seasons. Alabama coaches won the recruiting battle, and Wilson made an immediate impact, playing in all 15 games as a true freshman on special teams, defense (six tackles), and as a H-back on offense. He played in 12 games as a sophomore, starting twice and missing two games due to a foot injury. In addition to leading the Tide with four interceptions, Wilson posted 40 tackles, 2.5 for loss, and two pass breakups. He excelled in the national championship game, recording 12 tackles, two for loss, against Georgia. Wilson was voted second-team All-SEC by league coaches in 2018, compiling 71 tackles, five for loss, two interceptions, and five pass breakups during the season.

Pick 32 (170)
Austin Seibert
K Oklahoma 5-9 213 LBS
From Patriots
Seibert (SIGH-bert) was rated as the top high school kicker in the country by some recruiting services and as the top-rated high school punter by others. He's succeeded at both at Oklahoma, garnering first-team All-Big 12 accolades as a kicker (17-19 on field goals, long 42; 87-88 extra points) and honorable mention nod at punter (40.9 avg., 11 fair catches, nine inside the 20 yard-line on 31 punts). Seibert was a second-team All-Big 12 pick as a kicker in 2017 (17-21-81.0 FG, long 51, 81-81 XP), as well as a honorable mention punter (42.3 avg., 15 fair catches, 11 inside the 20). He handled kickoff duties in 2017 (84 touchbacks on 111 kicks) and 2018 (91 of 109), which he started as a sophomore (49-99) while also acting as the placement kicker (11-16-68.8, long 39, 72-74 XP) and punter (41.1 avg., 29 fair catches, 22 inside the 20). He was better known for his punting in his true freshman season, being named second-team All-Big 12 and a Ray Guy semifinalist (42.0 avg., 30 fair catches, 23 inside the 20 vs. two touchbacks). He also converted 18 of 23 field goal attempts (long 56) and 70 of 72 extra points in his initial campaign with the Sooners.

Round 6
Pick 17 (189)
Drew Forbes
G Southeast Missouri State 6-5 303 LBS
Forbes signed with home-state SEMO after starring as an offensive and defensive lineman in Bonne Terre. He played in 11 games for the Cardinals on special teams his true freshman season. Coaches put him in the starting lineup at left tackle for all 11 games in 2016, and he played well enough to be named the team's top offensive lineman. He earned second-team All-Ohio Valley Conference honors as a junior in 2017, again starting all 11 games on the blind side. His play earned him second-team Associated Press FCS All-American and first-team all-conference notice after his senior year, when he started 13 straight contests.

Pick 7 (221)
Donnie Lewis
CB Tulane 6-0 190 LBS
From
Although you would think a Baton Rouge native would be a shoo-in to play football in Louisiana, Lewis' home town is in Florida. He redshirted his first year with the Green Wave and then became a starter in Year 2, lining up with the ones for nine of 11 games played (30 tackles, three pass breakups). Lewis started 10 games in 2016, tying for the team lead with nine pass breakups (going along with 39 tackles, two for loss, and two interceptions). American Athletic Conference coaches voted him honorable mention all-conference in 2017, as he was a 12-game starter who intercepted three passes and broke up 11 others on the year (36 tackles, three for loss). Lewis was a second-team All-AAC pick as a senior after starting all 13 games, posting 56 tackles, 2.5 for loss, three interceptions, and 18 pass breakups. He finished in the top five nationally with 1.6 passes defensed per game.
