2019 NFL Mock Draft: Nick Bosa, Ed Oliver compete for first pick
5. Houston Texans: Greedy Williams, CB LSU
The Houston Texans need a corner. They now have the Honey Badger, Tyrann Mathieu playing in the back end of their defense but the secondary still needs help. Johnathan Joseph is 34 years old and won’t play at a high level forever, and they don’t have a world beater on the other side either.
That’s where Greedy Williams comes in. In his first season as a starter, Williams impressed as a ball hawk across from NFL draft pick Donte Jackson. With six interceptions Williams tied for the SEC lead. On top of that, he led the conference in pass breakups with 11.
Drafting Williams gives the Texans someone who will capitalize on all the poor throws resulting from their pass rush up front.
