Texas A&M's Brandon Williams drafted 92nd overall in third round by Arizona Cardinals

With the 92nd overall pick in the third round of the 2016 NFL draft, the Arizona Cardinals have selected Brandon Williams out of Texas A&M.

A former running back from Oklahoma, Williams transferred to College Station and moved to the defensive side of the ball for his final year in college. He operated as a defensive back under defensive coordinator and associate head coach John Chavis and finished the season with 37 tackles and seven pass breakups.

His position change, accompanied by a 4.37 40-yard dash time, helped Williams to race up the draft boards and hear his name called on day two of the draft.
