1. Leonard Williams, Southern California

How much better can it get than Williams? He is literally the defensive end that every team dreams of having. He has passion, he is strong, he has length, and he has a smart head on his shoulders. Williams is not only an exceptional talent, but has his act together as well. Williams is massive in size at 6’5″ and 291 pounds as he should be able to pancake offensive lineman left and right.

Even though Williams is widely considered to be a defensive tackle, he could definitely contribute as an end. His size, power, and speed would make him deadly rushing the quarterback from the outside. Williams has enough talent to immediately earn a starting role in the trenches.

Prediction: Drafted by Jacksonville Jaguars
