    Giants selected Minnesota CB Chris Williamson with the No. 247 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
    Via The Athletic’s Dane Brugler, “A three-star recruit out of high school, Williamson was an all-state senior, posting 76 catches for 1,402 yards and 20 touchdowns with one pick on defense. He committed to Florida over Michigan, but hamstring issues and inconsistency kept him on the sideline. He transferred to Minnesota where he found the field as a hybrid nickel back and developed into a team leader, according to coach P.J. Fleck. Williamson, who is mentored by former NFL corner Ray Buchanan, challenges routes and plays physical early in the down to disrupt the offensive timing. He also shows his aggressive nature in run support, although he tends to be reckless as a tackler (double-digit missed tackles in 2019). He is easily fooled by fakes and his eyes are often in the wrong place, making him late to read route breaks. Overall, Williamson is highly confident with the play personality of a hybrid nickel defender, but his undisciplined tendencies lead to chunk plays for the offense.”
