Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

Colts selected Utah State RB Kerwynn Williams with the No. 230 overall pick.

Williams (5-foot-8 1/8, 195) emerged from 2012 draft picks Robert Turbin and Michael Smith's shadow to rip off 1,512 yards and 15 touchdowns on 218 carries (6.94 YPC) in 2012. He added 45 catches for 697 yards (15.5 YPR) and five more scores. Williams' versatility is attractive, but he's more of an undersized straight-line speedster, albeit with absolutely blazing wheels. He ranked fourth among running backs at the Combine in both forty time (4.48) and the ten-yard split (1.52). In a best-case scenario, Williams would be groomed to take a larger role in 2014 when Donald Brown is a free agent.

Will Davis - DB - Aggies

Dolphins selected Utah State CB Will Davis with the No. 93 overall pick.

Davis ranked second nationally in pass breakups (17) as a senior, picking off five and recording 4.5 tackles for loss. He ran 4.53 at the Combine with an explosive 10-foot-7 broad jump, also repping 226 pounds 16 times. Davis is small with short arms (31 1/2"), so he may be best suited to nickel back once he fully develops. The Fins are dangerously needy at cornerback, so they're doubling down with Davis after drafting Jamar Taylor.

Utah State CB Will Davis visited the Falcons.

The Falcons seem to be feverishly working out corners as the draft approaches. There will be a nice group available at pick No. 30, and the Falcons will nearly have their choice of the second tier prospects at the position. Jamar Taylor will likely be selected prior to their selection.

Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

Eagles RB coach Duce Staley put Utah State RB Kerwynn Williams through his pro day workout.

Williams reportedly also caught punts and kickoffs from a Jugs machine. There's no doubting Williams' straight-line speed once given an alley and some open field, but we wonder if he can hold up in a larger role.

Will Davis - DB - Aggies

Utah State CB Will Davis met with eight teams at the combine last month.

Not all were revealed but some of those that were include the Miami Dolphins, Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos and Dallas Cowboys. Davis has reportedly been told he could be a second- to third-round selection. He offers a solid skill-set to teams but will need to improve his footwork and overall discipline at the next level.

Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

ESPN's Mel Kiper ranks Utah State's Kerwynn Williams as his fifth RB.

"Williams is a sleeper I really like," Kiper writes. The short runner did not earn a lot of touches prior to this year, running behind Robert Turbin and Michael Smith. He's got great straight-line speed and can make the most of open sapce, but Williams could be a one trick pony in that regard.

Will Davis - DB - Aggies

Utah State CB Will Davis ran an unofficial 4.53 forty at the NFL Combine.

Davis' 10 yard split was 1.56 seconds. We really like Davis in the third- or fourth-round area, but he struggled during the Senior Bowl due to unbalanced footwork. Still, if he gains patience, Davis could wind up as a team's third corner.

Will Davis - DB - Aggies

The NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah believes Utah State CB Will Davis' deep speed is a "major question."

Jeremiah added that Davis' confidence seemed to have been shaken after he was beaten vertically multiple times. The Aggie's tape from this season was quite good, so his poor performance during the Senior Bowl is a bit confusing.

Will Davis - DB - Aggies

Utah State senior CB Will Davis will attend the NFL Combine.

Davis is one of our favorite corners that will likely be drafted higher than his current perceived range. He's at his best in man coverage, using improved balance and physical play. Davis will be attending the Senior Bowl, so perhaps his "stock" will rise during that week of practice.

Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

Utah State senior RB Kerwynn Williams will attend the East-West Shrine Game.

Williams' bowl game performance was a microcosm of his impact: start with a few short runs until breaking multiple big gains due to vision and straight-line speed. Along with Vanderbilt's Zac Stacy, expect the running backs to be among the more talented positions during Shrine week.

Will Davis - DB - Aggies

One AFC college scouting director told the NFL Network's Albert Breer that Utah State senior CB Will Davis "needs to get more instinctive."

The same personnel member added that Davis has "got good size, speed, competitiveness, and he's a pretty good press corner... he's a good athlete." Another NFC executive agreed, adding "he needs to play with more discipline." Breer suggests Davis as a late-round flier, but we believe he will be selected much higher, maybe during the Draft's second day.

Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

Scouts Inc.'s Kevin Weidl tweeted that Utah State senior RB Kerwynn Williams was a "pleasant surprise" on tape.

Weidl said that Williams' versatility is obvious, but he likes the senior's "instincts and balance for a smaller back." The same sentiment was shared by SI's Tony Pauline a few weeks ago, stating that Williams could move into the top-100 selections.

Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

Utah State will play Toledo in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl on December 15.

Aggies Kerwynn Williams will headline the list of senior talent for many, with SI's Tony Pauline saying the running back could slip into the Draft's top-100 selections. Utah State receiver Chuck Jacobs and quaterback Chuckie Keeton are two others, but we feel strongly that cornerback Will Davis will be the top selection playing in this game.

Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

Utah State senior RB Kerwynn Williams could "slip into the draft's initial 100 selections," according to SI's Tony Pauline.

Two running backs were selected form Utah State last season, and neither was a top-100 pick (Robert Turbin, 106 - Michael Smith, 212). Pauline thinks Willaims could be "a versatile skill player with potential as a third down back at the next level." He also cites the weakness of this running back group as evidence.

Kerwynn Williams - RB - Aggies

Utah State senior RB Kerwynn Williams rushed for 110 yards and one touchdown on 17 carries Saturday against Idaho.

He added four receptions for 39 yards and another score. Williams has put together a solid season, his first as a starter, and if drafted he will be the third running back chosen from the Aggies in just two years.
