Pick 149: Kevin White, Cornerback, TCU
TCU’s Kevin White is an undersized (5’9″, 183 lbs) corner who was the leader of his team’s secondary and usually matched up against the opposing team’s best receiver.
In other words, Kevin White was TCU’s Brent Grimes.
Despite his size, White has tremendous athleticism and a great ability to stay on top of his receivers. He’s built for Miami’s off-man coverage scheme and could go on to compete for the starting job in training camp.
Pick 150: Karlos Williams, Running Back, Florida State
I wanted a running back who could complement Lamar Miller, who had an excellent 2014 campaign.
Karlos Williams can, and as a fifth-round pick, he makes sense.
Williams ran a 4.48 40-yard dash at the NFL combine. He also has ideal size and power at 6’1″, 230 pounds.
I was concerned about his pass-blocking (a concern with everyone from Florida State’s offense in 2014), and while he’s a capable receiver out of the backfield, that’s the best thing I can say about that skill.
There are issues with Williams in a lot of areas, but as a low-risk fourth-round pick, he could work.
