11. Carolina Panthers: Jonah Williams, OT, Alabama

There are viable concerns over the long-term health of Cam Newton with the Carolina Panthers at this point after he took a beating in the 2018 season, ultimately seeing his year end prematurely amidst the team’s horrific finishing run. While Taylor Moton has emerged as a good starting tackle, the team needs to address the offensive line moving forward to further add stability and protection in front of Newton.

Jonah Williams is a player who will no doubt be able to do that. The Alabama product is as sure-fire of an offensive tackle prospect as you can find, one that can thrive in the run game opening holes for Christian McCaffrey and one who can pass-block well also. He’d immediately be a key cog in the Carolina offense should they nab him.

12. Denver Broncos: Greedy Williams, CB, LSU

Throughout several points in the draft process, Greedy Williams out of LSU has been the top cornerback in the 2019 NFL Draft class. Byron Murphy may have overtaken him in that regard with a fantastic 2018 season, but there’s still a great deal to like about the LSU corner. He has the size and physical tools that make NFL scouts salivate and, with proper coaching and development, he has star potential at the position.

Though the Broncos have a high-quality cornerback in Chris Harris Jr., their secondary as a whole needs some re-tooling. This is a team that has the answers up front with their pass rush and, though they have offensive needs, they can’t pass up on an opportunity to get a player with the pedigree and potential of Williams.
