Marcus Williams, S, Utah

6'1" | 202 lbs.

2016 stats:

64 tackles, 5 interceptions, 2 forced fumbles, 3 passes defended

Projection:

Second-to-third round

Scouting Report:

"Ball-hawking free safety who has outstanding ball skills and has shown a propensity for causing turnovers. He can play from a high centerfield spot and utilizes his instincts to swoop down and challenge throws. He's able to get running backs down, but he’s not physical enough to be a combination safety. NFL teams love defensive backs with athletic traits, instincts and ball skills. If he works out well before the draft, he should move up team boards." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
