Entering the 2019 NFL draft, no position on the New England Patriots’ roster was deeper than cornerback: led by All-Pro Stephon Gilmore, the group had an intriguing blend of experience and youth, versatility and physicality. Despite that, the team opted to add another piece to it by trading up and drafting Vanderbilt’s Joejuan Williams with the 45th overall selection on Friday.
Shortly after hearing his name called, the 21-year-old went on a conference call with the New England media to speak about his experience and what he will bring to the table.
